…it was from the guy with whom I had my first date after my first divorce. He wanted to know if I was still single and if I wanted to get together to make some adventures. I replied that there is a reason that there was no second date… I don’t remember why there was no second date, I just remember there wasn’t one. Now I hear that little voice say don’t do it!!! Unlike some good leftovers, men don’t get any better the second time around.

Sounds like the message I got a few months ago, from a guy I dated back in college 37 years ago, While we did talk many times, he lives on the east coast, and me on the west. Not going there, because I don’t want a long distance lover or relationship, and know I left MY years ago, to join the U.S. Navy for a reason. This man is not what I want, and I think he knows it now. He tried texting me, and sexting me but told him over and over again, that he will never date me, we will never go out to dinner or the movies or theater. You have to put your foot down when you know what you want after being married to someone for 34 years, and now you are single again.

I agree! They are kind of like the leftovers that we put in the fridge with the intention to reheat them…. but if I didn’t like it the first time… there’s no way I am going to eat that again!!
