Bringing Sex Back...

October 30, 2018
Bringing Sex Back...

So here I am three years post divorce and I’m ready to get my “sexy on”. I mean the last five years have been a shit storm of tears, humiliation, anger, frustration, manipulation, angst and sleepless nights. And I have finally arrived at a place close to calm and I’m feeling “normal” again. Albeit a new kind of normal but I do feel ready… Ready to date and have the same kind of fun my now ex husband experienced during those hard years of marriage. Yes – he cheated on me and I never thought I would get past it or through the pain. But after all the work I did on myself I am starting to feel proud of the person I am and to be truthful, I’m in need of a sexual encounter! I’m not even looking for my soul mate… just a night or two of fun. I married right out of college and never had a chance to play the field. I started dating my ex at 19 and really haven’t been with anyone else. So I am pretty scared of starting this journey but I am sort of excited to connect and have sex with someone new. I haven’t felt sexy in years – after my kids were born my husband stopped complimenting me and stopped taking me out for romantic nights. Our sex life was pretty lame during those last few years. I never felt great about my looks but I’ve been working with the Divorce Angels professionals to help get me styled and I’ve started to work out… I feel kind of sexy these days and can’t wait to get out there. Last week I went on bumble and had my first real date. Our next date is lined up for this Thursday… so… I’m ready….I’m bringing sexy back!
