That's the way Ms.goclark runs her life.

I must have 5 "Best Male Friends in the entire world" that take me anywhere.... movies, restaurants, plays , Drive or Fly with me to Vegas or anywhere I/we want to go. They were there for me while my Mom was ill for 10 yrs ~ my Guy friends were/ARE simply amazing!

In addition to that ~ my Ex husband is living with a wonderful lady and when he comes in town today, he is taking me to lunch at a fancy restaurant. His Live In Lady encourages him to see me whenever he is in my town.

He invited me to a Formal Dance ~ his cousin was being honored and his sweet live in Lady was thrilled that I could attend with him because she was going to visit her daughter in another state.

If she comes in town with him -- we get together and the first thing we do is give each other a big Hug. She tells me how happy she is that he sees me/calls me.

I am not looking to be married - done that 2 times and I don't feel the need to ever do it again. However- if Mr. Absolutely Right comes along, I don't think I would marry him -- live with him/Yes, but no more marriage for Ms. goclark. I'm having too much fun being Single.

PS: I sure do wish we could have a Forum at DU to share experiences like this -thread does ~ look how many responses and look how much honesty we see here.

Is there a way to make that happen?
