Good luck on your next interview. It sounds like a good opportunity to start fresh.
Your friend Jay is acting like a decent man. It sounds like he wants to go slow too and treated you with respect. There are many men who would get invited to spend the night by a woman who was a bit tipsy from drinking and they wouldn't hesitate to take advantage of that. He said no and is still talking to you and interested in getting to know you. Enjoy being treated with respect. I know how different that is for someone who was not treated well in other relationships. It takes time to get used to it. Be patient with yourself and with him. You deserve to be respected. In time it will be easier to be treated well. |

 I think she must have appreciated that I was upfront. I even told her how I had been graded a "B" on my last audit instead of an "A", but that I did very well with blog topic ideation, and also that I had learned a lot more about what goes into an audit after this experience. Thank goodness she found it acceptable! I feel truly blessed, as though this was a sheer miracle and a stroke of very good luck!

Jay IS acting decent and IS treating me with respect. It's SO refreshing!!! It's been years since a man has treated me respectfully. I cannot remember the last time I dated a truly respectful guy.... my last 3 big relationships were all toxic.... before that, I lived in the southwest and had been abused there by men.... and before that? More cheating and toxic scoundrels. It's been at least 15-20 years since I've dated a truly respectful man. Far too long, at the very least! Jay also is very protective of me - he is concerned for my safety while I am meeting and interviewing potential roommates from Craigslist. He's brought it up a few times. I like that.

I have a transgender friend who may want to move in with me, but not for a couple of months. She, formerly he, is very down to earth, cool and shares the same music tastes as me. That's how I met her - was through my music scene. We had lunch together the other day and she brought up the fact that she could be interested. I am thinking on it....
IF I get the job offer and IF I get the salary I am seeking, I may not need a roommate. My preference would be to continue living alone, but I could save that much more money with a roommate. It's a toss up. __________________ "Twenty-five years and my life is still trying to get up that great big hill of hope for a destination" ~4 Non Blondes Last edited by Have Hope; Mar 24, 2023 at 04:27 AM.. |

I've started a new thread, here: Dating After Divorce and Life Transitions
and have asked Admin to close this thread. I think it's time to start a fresh one. Thanks to ALL for ALL your support in this lengthy thread!
