I’ve been divorced for abut a year now, after 25 years of marriage to the girl of my dreams.

Depression was all over me until I realized that I was subconciously looking for another wife. Forced myself to stop looking, because, as you said, “I’ve reached the conclusion that it’s not going to happen.” It certainly isn’t going to happen tomorrow or next week (I’m not that easy) and maybe not next year and maybe never.

Once you truly believe that, then you’re free of the pressure of finding a new wife/husband, and can relax with the idea of cultivating close friends. Early results have been positive in my personal testing.

Having several close friends will allow you to change theater seats without stomping and/or throwing popcorn.

Best of luck, dear! I’ll be back around. I’m a sucker for language skills!

Yikes. Deep and depressing but painfully accurate. A nice metaphor for human interaction. And also tragically inescapable.

Ah come now – for people are moving in and out of that theatre on a daily basis – and while (as my old grandad said to me) the majority of the people in the world will leave no more than a faint impression on a weatherbeaten brow – i have no doubt that the one handsome type who’s thee to a tee will be buying his ticket and sitting on the back row very soon!

Good luck – ad great blog by the way xx

I’m talking more about an outlook on life in general, not so much about…

Oh never mind.

Marriage is a permanent solution to a temporary problem.

Dating is at least a temporary solution.

Fuck the movie, just HAVE SEX and enjoy yourself.

Really, why are you sitting there next to the dude in the theatre, instead of running your fingers up his thighs and massaging his rapidly-engorging cock through his jeans, until he can’t stand it anymore?

Sheesh.

Marriage is not death!! But it is the death of hope!!
You obviously regained your sense of hope and fantasy.
There is a fine line betweeen dreams and memory.

My god ! the first person I’ve come across who’s read Grendel !! I think it’s a book for depressives actually – but magnificently written – which fits your state of mind perhaps. You’ve only been separated a few months and, in reality you have to “decompress” from the STBex asshole before you’ll be ready for whatever relationships await you… don’t give up yet!

Maybe you need to look for somebody different. Somebody completely not your type. Somebody you normally wouldn’t have looked twice at. You might end up pleasantly surprised.

I hear you and am inhabiting a similar theatre.
