Question - (29 November 2007) 1 Answers - (Newest, 30 November 2007)
A female United Kingdom age 51-59, anonymous writes:

I am divorcing my husband at the moment. It is stressful. I am a housewife since I've married my husband 20 years ago. I have to look for job and stand on my own two feet now. I have no work history or any qualification to fall back on. I met this much older man and I just use sex to numb my pain and ease my stress. Phyiscally I feel good but inside I feel dreadful. I dont know what does the future hold? Please advise.

You have to flip your perspective. Use this moment to revise your self. Make a plan for your education, job, future.. figure out what it is you like.. hobby wise and etc..

think about what you'd like to explore..get with others divorcing and see who was successful and who wasn't.. model the successes.

Take this time to list things you like and dislike in yourself..Maybe you have somethings to change.. and maybe there are things you want folks to just accept about you.. then go out and find folks who can be accepting.

be positive.. do easy accomplishments first to get you feeling good again..

..and by the way the sex thing to feel better will make you feel worse.. now that you've proven you can find a sex partner move on..to more meaningful paths..
