Not sure if this the right category, but...

And not sure exactly what I want to say, but...

My life just kinda hit me lwith a whammy while I was already down

Had a SECOND marriage fail on me. I don't know what to say. Our marriage just sort of devolved into a relationship where we were two roommates who got along, but no love or romance.

Moved out, ironically enough, on Valentine's Day!

Anyway, moving the story along, last Wednesday, I went out on a date with a gal I knew from the local music scene, a friend of a friend. Great date! Never smiled and laughed so hard on a first date ever!

All we did was go for a tea and get some potatoes at a downtown restaurant. And it was one of the best dates I ever had.

But I realized I wasn't ready to date yet. And she was a single mom with a lot on her plate. We both basically decided we were the right people at the wrong time.

But the universe, in it's vast indifference, decided I hadn't been fucked with enough already.

Found out this morning, my job is letting me go Jul 2. I'd seen or workload dropping and knew it was a possibility, but still...

So yeah, I don't know, I guess I just needed to say something! No fun getting kicked in the balls when you're already down!

Opportunities. These might be so hard to see now, but this could be a chance for you to change your life up completely! I’m going back to college. To study something completely different than my first time around. It’s so damn cliche I know. When a door closes a window or two open! Turn that fear into excitement, you might be amazed at what comes along. An opportunity, a chance to do something you’ve always dreamed of, including opening your own business and becoming your own boss, to meeting the absolute right person for you! I wish you all the best.

I'm so sorry that happened to you!

OHH. I'm so sorry it's all hitting at once. Now that you know you aren't ready to date you can take care of getting your work life back together. At that point maybe you will be ready. I'm really not minimizing your pain. I've been divorced twice, too. The second time put me in a psych ward for a couple of weeks to get myself back together. Now life is good. Hang tough.

Nothing every happens at the "right" time.

You poor dear. That's an awful lot to deal with all at once.We'll listen when you need to vent or want advice.

Stay positive because that crap can make you spiral.

Aww, I'm so sorry to hear you are dealing with so much. That is a lot. I've had some friends who have lost work too recently and it's never an easy thing. There are always the bright spots that come along though, like the girl and the tea and potatoes...

We are thinking of you man, life is a bitch. Then you stand up and live again.
