I really don't know Jadapit. I'm not in a position to say because I've been on my own for 10 years now. I've never had much luck with men and have never been dumped for a younger woman.

I mean, men are human too and I'm sure they have self esteem issues. I really want to hear from Richard, Trevor, David and any other men on this board. LOL I guess the mere title of this thread would probably scare them away.
Well I must admit I opened this thread with some trepidation, because as wordly as I am, there are some things I just don't want to really talk about. You know, the type of stuff that always gets talked about when Carole's friends pop in etc. So I opened the thread carefully and was quite surprised at what has been said actually.
It's pretty hard to put tickets on yourself and a tad unbecoming, but you should at least be honest with yourself. The thing that surprised me the most was how some of the ladies looked at themselves. Granted that having had a bad experience with some numnut of a boofhead bloke is going to sour your perception somewhat, though I do feel that what you absolutely can't hide is the beauty that everyone has from within. Everyone on here has it. It leaps at you from half the world away. How you are and how you feel is based upon your experiences. They can be good or bad, but the thing is, is that you must embrace those and see through any negativity that may befall your life in any given situation.
I have on occasion been in some very dusty circumstances, seen some truly horrible things, experienced terror at it's worst. Admittedly some of these things have taken some time for me to work through, but work through I did. Maybe experience comes into it. But ask yourself, did I make someone have a good thought today, and I can assure you that everyone on here does that everyday. I became a member of this site because, not only did I want to talk about my kids, but because it's my daily dose of happiness. No matter how my day has been, I will always have a smile when talking to the people on here and looking at there lovely pets.

In short ladies you are all beautiful, you all have such good souls that just radiate happiness.
