I am middle-aged and single....how did I get here???

I had a match ask me once in OC about my past relationships. I gave a real honest answer and it started with...there is only one relationship that mattered.

No truer words have been spoken (written).

So how did you end up here?? And what do you want the second time around?? Or the first time around, or the third, or the fourth? At the fifth...I am really starting to wonder about you and am probably thinking you should stay single. lol!!

Heck, I'll go. We all know I can't shut up anyway...

Married the first time for 13 years. Mean drunk, very controlling. See ya!

Married the second time for a year and a half. Who said workplace romances don't work? They sure did for him and the girlfriend he found shortly after the wedding!

I have the best of intentions, and my friends all say I'm a good catch, but I somehow end up with acoholics, potheads, racists and guys who are still in love with their exes.

Argh!

I ended up using EH from sheer frustration that surely there is a good man out there, lacking the 'me man, you woman' mentality. Complete with a thin line of pale skin around his left hand ring finger. What a catch .. not! (Am I a complete cynic at times ... why yes - yes, I think I am!)

EHA I found completely by accident, I thought it was an article. I clicked and was hooked. All these different threads and groups and experiences and opinions to learn from!

Well, let's see ...assuming a whole lot of things, my next relationship will be my 5th major one in 23 years ...and assuming it goes that far, my 3rd marriage.

All of them were important in my life and 'mattered' to me, but one of them more than all the others, the 4th one ...it was what brought me here to eHA.

What do I want most out of the next relationship/marriage? ...that it be my last one. =)

As a lifetime single guy I got married in desparation and haste at the age of 46; I chose VERY poorly as it turned out though I stuck around for 11 years, which were fraught with her verbal, physical and emotional abuse.


I now see that only as an OPTION, and sorry to say this negatively, would only ever consider it (remarriage)with someone that had at least as much if not more to potentially lose than me if she did it.

The wish to connect remains, though, it is strong....

I feel happy optimistic and strong though.
