Well it was a very long time ago, we were young and were married briefly, we were not a good match but we co parented very well and are on good friendly terms.

With the exception of one longish relationship (I shared about that on here) and few dates here and there I was single for most of my adult life. Too busy to date, didn’t want to get serious or bring men home while my daughter was young etc It’s nice I’ve met my husband but it would be just fine if I didn’t. I had a good life before I met him

I know you’d agree with me that a woman doesn’t need a man to live a full and satisfying life. I have education and a life long satisfying career that pays the bills pretty well, I have engaging hobbies, decent number of good girlfriends, decent savings for comfortable retirement, I had a lot of fun experiences in life, travelled all over the country and some amount of international travel, I like nice things so I have a ton of stuff I like to have to make my life nice. I did it all without a man. I didn’t need a man. And I know you are the same way. Don’t need one.

What I am trying to say and I know you feel the same way, relationships are good and all that but notion that a woman needs a man to fully function is outdated. You will have a great life regardless if you stay with this guy, find another one or go solo. Having a good man by your side is nice but absolutely not a requirement to have a good life. You’ll do what works for you and will be a winner regardless how things work out
