    Marelyboy, we're all in the same boat.
    I'm single, sneaking up on 40 (if I sneak maybe noone will notice!), and so gut-wrenchingly lonely some nights I can't sleep.

    40 is the new 30 apparently! make sure you celebrate.:beer:

    Quite the oppositte for me, I gave up the house, and moved out leaving her with the lot, for the sake of the kids (not my real kids), Id just spent a fortune on that place too.

    Right now I know some guy is sat on my leather reclyner, holding my remote, wearing my slippers. But all of that is just material, I can easily rebuild. You could say my X came out laughing from this, but its one thing to have it handed over, a completely different story to keep and maintain it.

    See I did the opposite, gave the ex hubby everything, now my ex marital home is sat there empty and rotting as he cant be bothered to sell it or rent it out :mad:

  • ok guys I feel a challenge coming on!

    not sure this will work so be nice.

    1. Do one thing - a new different thing to help reduce your debts
    2. If you are sick of being single or need a confidence boost make a connection however small with some one you find attractive.

    You have until next Saturday!

    Love this idea! Was thinking of a challenge for us, this is a good one! So we all try something and report back? What does everyone else think?
