[x] None of the above


I am still married to my bride of 38 years, with who I raised 2 beautiful daughters, who in turn, gave us 4 wonderful grandkids.

That said, it hasn't always been total Ozzy & Harriet (sorry kiddies, google it). We separated for about 4 years a long time ago but, eventually found our way back home.

hey you ever actually see a tornado, like Dorothy? Do you have a little dog, too? Questions I have I feel I can randomly ask.


Who me or Michael?

Yes I have. My town got hit last year. Started out on a lake of all places and as it went up hill, it gained strength and size.

I was on the phone to Thump at the time and I freaked out :laugh2:
Flying debris everywhere. The noise was so loud, even Thump couldn't barely hear me. It was pretty scary. I was supposed to be on the way to work but my work got hit, employee car windows got blown out, roof ripped, wall collapsed and all sorts of damage.


Yes I have a dog, but he is a big border collie :laugh2: I got him and went down to the basement.


Luckily I did not end up in another State :D



Taken from a block from me at the school.

All kidding aside; I've been retired from the game for a few years now, but if I had to give an opinion I would say it depends entirely on the circumstances.

There's no hard and fast rules to this sorta thing IMHO.

:dunno:

words are words. Society shows itself clear enough.

But it isn't the majority like you said.
There will be many reasons as to why someone wouldn't want to date another person. Sometimes people change their minds too, if a person they meet really catches their heart. You just never know.

Divorced with or without kids is way too much mileage for me.

Then again, I'm 25.

Wife #1
Never married going in.
We were married for 5 years
One kid going in (hers)
Two more followed.
Divorced
Kids all grown up and families of their own.

Wife #2
Never married going in.
We were married for 5 years
No kids going in
One followed
Divorced...then she died. (just one of those things)
Kid all grown up and family for her own.

Wife #3
She was twice divorced going in.
We were together a total of 8 years
5 years then separated for 4 years.
Reconciled for 3 years then............
Divorced
She had two kids going in.
One kid moved out
One kid pushing 18 and still at the house.

In between I've had numerous relationships.
Some with a kid.
Some without.
Some divorced.
Some not.
Meh.......I have no regrets.
None when it comes to any relationship I've ever had.

And now, I've finally reached an age where I couldn't give a damn if I ever hooked up again.
However, with that said, I've been seeing somebody for a year and a half.
No kids
Well off.
Best thing yet so far......:hmm:

Frankly, I couldn't be happier then I am right now.

I never gave the divorced thing or the kids thing a moments consideration.......seriously.
The heart wants what the heart wants.

Later girl
:)

My mate and I have a little inside joke about people needing one or more marriage or LTR to finally get it right. She and I call earlier marriage(s) and earlier LTR relationship(s) "starter marriages. It appears that marriage and LTRs are something most don't get right the first time. The first time out, most people chose somebody they think looks sexy. After one or more of these choices, they find that this and $4 will get you a beer.

My status. Single never married and no intentions of ever getting married.

Dating divorced women that have children? Yes. At 16 I probably wouldn't have considered that. But by the time I reached 25 I feel that the odds of getting involved with single or divorced mom's becomes more likely.

I am a quick study and seeing that my big head is far wiser than my little head makes it such that I never take a giant leap into a relationship without some early fact finding dates. I never lead any girl on and am quick to call it done if I see too many red flags.

Now at 52 it seems as the woman have been getting crazier than ever over the past dozen years. Even the younger ones who have made themselves available are completely nuts and come with loads of baggage. I like simplicity and hate drama. So I am currently single and not available.

And quite happy to stay this way until I'm dust.:fingersx:


But never say never :hmm:

Just going thru a divorce. Married almost 20 years and it's been tough but things are coming around. I thought I'd be with her for the rest of my life but things changed and here I am waiting for Thursday to button up the details and move on.

The good. I have a bunch of opportunities and have met a wonderful woman who is divorced and has a child in high school. I don't care that she has a child. I don't care that she is divorced. The only thing I care about is that she likes spending time with me and I like spending my time with her. I have a wait and see approach and due to the fact that I am still considered married I won't touch her until it's finalized. (my ex has no such hang ups) Life goes on. I never knew dating was so easy but then again it's been 20 years since I tried it.

Find someone who makes you happy - who cares if they are divorced or not.

Aloha

I'm divorced with three kids.

I'll hook up with just about anyone that fits my profile (just being honest). I don't care if they have kids or not. None of them will ever meet my kids, unless we determine that we are going to be in a LTR. I'm happy to meet theirs, if they have them, but it won't change my approach.
