I could probably subdivide and make several lists based on this theme - the positive end to an unexpected divorce!
- no more picking up his dirty socks from the lounge
- no more cooking for your self and the whole baseball team (him)
- no more watching top gear and world sports
- free to see anyone and who ever you want
- free to wear anything, where ever you want
- free of all the occasianal arguing about pointless stuff
- free to be ur self again!
seriously i think the list goes on... yea its good to have a loved one but at the same time many of ur lose the sight of who we were before we got into the relationship...
Always be true to ur self! :)
I'm in a long term relationship, but I totally agree with everything you've said.
Although, much of this can still be done when you're in a comfortable long term relationship. It might just take a couple of years to get to the point where you can stop shaving your legs, stop having to justify yourself, and not care what he thinks of your cookie and soda dinner.
Go you, looking on the bright side!
Also:
- No fear of what will happen if you break up with your guy (who will pay the other half of the rent etc)
- No Mother In Laws
- No one waking you up at 4am after a night of boozing with the boys
- Your room won't smell like stale beer after a night out with the boys either
- The immense relief of not having to wake up and tell someone that you love them, when you don't anymore.
