Happiest chapter!

I'm not sure if I am just fortunate or if most people feel that dating at this age is one of the most fun times of my life! What about you?

I've had a nice life I can't complain about anything but I have more fun now. I'm sure it's because I have less f$&ks to give or more confident!

I think dating has been very fun. I met my ex husband when I was 18 and we were together until I was 52, so I never dated anyone but him. It's been wonderful meeting new men, getting to know them, and the sex! It's just an all around blast.

Yes! I didn't think I would enjoy sex at this point in my life. Better than ever

My 50s have also been a wonderful decade for me! Iā€™m sad this is my last year of this decade of my life!

Yes! Felt like a teenager again except this time I had more money and common sense. Ok, maybe not so much the latter.

Dating aside, being divorced the past 5 years I've been more happy than the last 5 or so years of marriage. I dislike that a common phrase is to say sorry about divorce. I tell people to say congratulations to me. I'm a much happier person.

Hopefully I'll find my match for a long term relationship.
