Bliss, you don't need a man to have a satisfying life. I agree that it is preferrable, but let's face it, unless you're willing to be in the same situation that you're getting out of, there aren't too many good ones out there.

I like to cook, but I invite my family and friends over for meals. I love being able to decorate just for myself. My x would never have agreed to paint the kitchen red.

After I got divorced the 1st time, I thought I was okay emotionally, but each year that passed, I realized I was better than the year before. Please find a divorce-care support group at a church - you really need that support.

You don't need a man.
