The One With Dating After Divorce

 Have you been talked into going on a date or a dating app?  I have and it definitely sent me down a dark road so to speak. 

I already had enough “issues” on my own but then going on actual dates just seemed like way too much pressure for something serious that I was not ready for, nor did I want. 

Take more time for yourself with nothing and nobody to distract you or blur your vision so to speak.

You need to heal and respect yourself and be there for your children and their emotions before bringing someone new into your lives.  

If it’s the “right” person, they’ll wait until you’re ready, be supportive and understanding- not give you a guilt trip or tell you how you should feel as so many mansplained to me.  

Keep your head up and trust your gut.

Dating Comment ME if you are not interested in dating at this point either.

The One Where Everyone Had a Choice

I’m sure I’ll get hate for this, but it’s the truth. I didn’t judge others for making their own personal choice, but they sure as heck judged ME and anyone who didn’t agree with them. I’m honestly starting to get more and more frustrated being four years out from when people had to choose between their jobs and the sh0t…. Saying that you “were forced” to get it truly isn’t accurate. We all had a choice. I’m a nurse. I’m also a single mom of two. I left my career to stand up for what I believe in. I’m not judging you for making the choice that you felt was best for you and your family based on information you had at the time… Even though many of YOU judged people like me for “not complying”. You possibly even called me a conspiracy theorist and told me that if I didn’t get it, I shouldn’t be a nurse anyway. But I AM saying that as a mental health nurse, I know the difference between holding someone down and forcing them to take an injection and giving them a choice with an ultimatum or...

The One Where it Matter How We React to Someone Else’s Comments or Actions

First, to everyone accusing me of not watching the full almost hour video before posting about my opinions, you obviously don’t know me very well. I absolutely watched it all before weighing in. This is another comment I made under my other post. Let me be clear. I am not saying I agree with with Zelensky. I am saying this was a “how are we going to react to his comments and actions” situation? There are ways to put someone firmly in their place while not risking losing the trust of other foreign countries. Putin now has an upper hand. I agree with those who have said that Zelensky was definitely trying to push his limits and see what he could get. Absolutely. I also think that we planned to stop helping them with money either way, yes. AND that he definitely needed to dial it back acting like we somehow HAVE to help or owe him something, etc. But I would have also not just ASSUMED that what he said was a threat - I would have tried to clarify some things with conversation and stil...

The One When You Don’t “Pick a Side”

Unpopular opinion: You don’t always have to “pick a side”. Being against one thing doesn’t mean you’re automatically in full agreement with the other thing. We can acknowledge that Trump and Vance went overboard to “show their control” or “puff up their chests” at Zelensky without actually being FOR Zelensky. It’s called basic human decency and Trump doesn’t have it. He spreads hateful speech, just like people do towards him. This doesn’t mean I “support” what Zelensky has done. Did I think Zelensky’s “disrespect” warranted the DEGREE of condemnation that he received from Trump and Vance? No… I think it was a show - Trump wanted the world to watch him “own” Zelensky. It’s what narcissists DO. AND YES I voted for Trump because it was like playing Russian Roulette with him versus Kamala (pun intended). I voted based on my Catholic beliefs and the commandments and POLICY, but that does not make it okay for him to treat other humans like shit. I am very disappointed in humanity these ...
