Anyone else in this weird stage of life rebuilding their social network?

Divorced in my forties and most of the crew I hang out with are milleniels in their mid twenties or thirties......but people always guess I’m about mid thirties so i guess that’s cool. #weirdnotweirdnoweird

And rebuilding one's life too, heart. It is called grey divorce. Google it. It is a term for people older than you. More my ageish. I don't do a lot socially, but I am planning to get out and do more. How does it feel to you?

@PoetryNEmotion ohhh wow I’ll look up that term. Just feels weird Poetry....I don’t have many married friends cause it’s all awkward lol and only a couple single parent friends(in their late twenties)
Good for you going out more. Yeah I just have joined a new dance group so that will be fun!

@thedarkshadow Well, I am sure you will find a long-term partner eventually. You are a good man. Married people tend to hang together. Singles are often alone.
I have to make some major changes. A dance group sounds fun. I could always use more friends.

@PoetryNEmotion y’know I think I have made peace with maybe already having a “happily ever after”...If something happens great ....if not ...still great! Lol you are amazing!

@thedarkshadow You are such a sweetheart! Thank you. And know that when you are not actively seeking love, it will likely knock you over with surprise. I know you will find your lady love; you are too fine a man not to! Good night, my friend. Have fun.
