the thread about nothing...

Haven’t had chipotle in a while
That might continue had a burrito bowl and I swear I was still hungry after :lol: :lol: :lol:
I see they offer extra cups of protein now my bowl was light as ****
I like Chipotle. I like food apps for earning points.

But I learned 8 years ago, always order your burrito bowl in person cuz Lord knows what youre going to get when you pick up your food.

They’re redoing the pipping in my complex, so got a whole crew up tearing up the walls and making all kinds of noise. Had a conference call for work so I go out to my balcony, only to have the landscapers start cutting the grass. Literally had to go in my walk-in closet and shut the door to during my meeting. :lol:
 
It’s been about 6 months since my ex-wife moved out after i asked for a divorce. It was for the best as i felt we were just existing not living. But now reality and loneliness is settling in. Also the anxiety of trying to date in my mid 40s and then feeling unaccomplished because i have no kids gets to me.

This is my life and i don’t know which was worse, being in a marriage where i felt empty or being alone and also feeling empty.

I’ll share the same advice nt has given over the years:

Hit the gym and sexy yourself up pa (even you’re already handsome)
Kick it with your boys
Pick up a new hobby or an old hobby you put on hold
Therapy if you truly are having a tough time dealing with emptiness and feeling unfulfilled

Gonna get a little personal but I do have a few questions:

Did you and the ex speak on having kids?
Did you see yourself having kids with her?
Did anything happen that caused you both to get the “just existing” point in your marriage?
How long were y’all together and are y’all on speaking terms as of today?
Removing the kids aspect, what else is making you feel unaccomplished?

Don’t forget even though we joke a lot on here, you can send a pm to us as well if you want to talk or need some words of encouragement. You got this pa!

#itbeslikethatsometimes...just know things can all change/improve, maybe slowly but surely, if you work on the things that you feel are lacking

i would not stress too much about dating right at this moment as you just got out of something by your own estimation, was lackluster & if you are indeed feeling empty, focus on finding that interest/spark or at least figure ahht what is the root of your feeling empty, if it's the lack of progeny that's something you're going to have to decide to go all in on or settle with either by entertaining all options in that regard or alternative things like mentorship(s) &/or taking more interest w/children of family

in any case hope, you get through this homie 🫡

Honestly i do appreciate the words man.

To answer some of your questions:

Yeah we did i mean it was the goal but for personal reasons I’d rather not talk about it just never came to pass.

I think it was a culmination of things but the kicker was having her mom and sister living with us for 2 years. 4 adults in a 800 sq ft condo was not the business. So that really sealed it but we just drifted apart. We didn’t fight about big things it was little fights but they made me realize i wasn’t happy i was just, comfortable and not in a good way.

We were together 10 years and had just celebrated 7 years of marriage. No honestly after she moved out we’ve exchanged a handful of texts mostly about the divorce paperwork that i did on my own.

I think it’s the kids. Last year end of the year was rough being laid off for 3 months. But now I’m working again establishing a routine I’m starting to think about big picture. Future. And then the daunting realisation that yeah being alone sucks haha but what’s the phrase, better. Alone than with bad company.

I’m 47 i don’t have a close nit group of friends and most of my guys are married with kids and have jobs that don’t give them weekends off. My one homie he got laid off in December so i don’t want to bug him. Yeah I’m getting back into comics and getting my place clean after the holidays still but the lack of companionship is starting to take a toll. More so because of my age and lately seeing all these celebs passing that aren’t that much older than me, the finality of life is hitting.

I do appreciate the offer and I’ll for sure hit you if i need to talk.
