I've realized during my break from summer grad classes and the lack of structure of my teaching job, that there at home, despite my pets and my many home improvement projects, the I am rattling around in my house kind of ...well, very! lonely! At the same time, I seriously ask myself, what would I do with a male presence in my space? I've conditioned myself here to be alone and also realize because of my bad experiences since my divorce, that relatiohships with the opposite sex haven't worked out, and, in fact, have been disastrously hurtful, taking long periods from which to recover. I've told myself that at some point one must learn and adjust, as I've done!
Any thoughts appreciated.
