This is slightly off topic, but reading through this made me think of my dad, who is 62 and who is single. He is not an addict and is smart and successful. I bet there are more guys out there like my dad, who's marriage unfortunately ended but more because the connection wasn't right then anything else. Look for someone who is good to you, there are good single men out there who would treat you with respect.
And now I am feeling kind of stupid, I am 26, why am I not telling myself that there are good single men out there who will treat me with respect? Sometimes I want to scream.
