I'm very happy that you are doing well and hope I can be saying these same words some day. I don't know how old you are but I am nearly 50 so I feel that my chances of a new life are going to be pretty limited. It's okay though because I think I can handle being by myself as long as I have friends. I just hope that I don't end up bitter because of the loss of my hopes and dreams.<P>Take care and keep smiling. God is watching over all of us and knows what is best. When one door closes, usually another opens and you are living proof that life does go on and can be wonderful. Thank you for the inspiration.

Coffee Cake: I just turned 48 and am "nearing 50" as you say. I feel the same way that you do .... it'll be okay if live alone for the rest of my life, but I need friends to enhance my life. And that's the keyword. Friends. Isn't it amazing how the person you thought was your bes friend, spouse, so quickly becomes your nightmare come true when the deception is exposed? I don't know if I will ever get over the shock of betrayal. I don't know if I should. It was just too too bad and even after a year, still fresh. I wish I could turn my mind off sometimes. Take care. And look at Goldie Hawn, Candace Bergen, alot of woman turned 50 look pretty damn good.

HEy - why the sad faces? <P>Life isn't OVER at 50! I'm 41 and determined to make a whole life with my kids and maybe even a new husband - there are a lot of men out there who are in the same boat - betrayed. They aren't ALL jerks!!!! <P>Find that smile - paste it on and go find someone to dance with - you pick the music.<P> ![[Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com]](http://www.marriagebuilders.com/forum/images/icons/grin.gif)
