I'd just like some moral support please. I'm 53 next month and have been single for around 6 months. Before that was a divorce and more heartache besides.
I'm all the usual things - intelligent, attractive, capable etc and I'd love to have a man in my life to cherish me but I've come to the conclusion it's not going to happen. I've tried online dating and had a couple of relationships but I don't think I can do that anymore.
Sometimes I feel so lonely I could die and the thought of not being in a man's arms again makes me feel so bleak. I almost feel like a freak when I look at all the women around me still in marriages. But I know I have to let go, get on an even keel and really embrace being single. I would so love to hear some encouraging stories and to know
that being manless isn't the end of the world.
