OT- Update

So I decided to focus on me, which is great btw.  I'm doing things I used to love that I hadn't touched in forever, lost a few pounds of the weight I gained while stressing during the divorce, and once i make a few house repairs, I intend on saving up so that I go solo travel for a bit.  

However,  for a laugh,  since everyone is ridiculous.  When you don't want to date, and aren't ready for a relationship, people come out of the woodworks.  So for today's story:

There's a guy, I havne't spoken to him in like 7 years, he found me on snapchat, we're casually talking, no flirting or antyhing (so I thought).  Today he hits me with the "So...  If we get together... And I bought a house... Would you want to move in with me and then possibly settle down on a homestead after I finish my degree." W.T.F.

You'll be pleased to know.  Homeboy is blocked without a second thought (thank goodness for my reduced tolerance levels. lmao).

But moral is.  Men are bats***.

This topped the one that got angry I wouldn't respond 24/7 and explained I get anxious and prefer not to have my phone on me all the time, so he told me I "wasn't worth the effort since I can't even text back in a reasonable time." -Note, also wasn't dating this one.

Lol okay wow that is crazy, but I'm curious what kind of homestead, are we talking like out on the range, sexy cowboy...or more out in the desert deranged the hills have eyes...
Either way sounds like at least you have options...I kid I kid, but good for you! So glad to see you are doing well.

What do you mean since everyone is ridiculous??? LOL Well since he found you on snapchat, plus do you know what that means, you should not block homeboy. That being said if it was something like Tiktok well you should never ever even consider that.

Maybe? Maybe not?  LOL But you should start to enjoy being single. Not everyone is terrible. You don't need to marry them just enjoy someone who is a friend. Have fun!  After this year we all are living through branch out PA.

I'm planning some trips to some closer hiking spots to start, gonna setup a bed in my trunk and camp out of there until it gets too cold :)  After that I'd like to go back to Zions and hike some more there, and eventually I"d like to see Greece.  All things I'd like to do solo so I can experience it without working around someone else's plans.

That's awesome. I love travelling solo and highly recommend it. 

I've been looking at new SUVs and trucks for the same purpose. I want my campsite in my vehicle when we go camping. Have you seen the 2021 Ford Bronco? Perfect for that lifestyle.

... gay male BFFs who I hung out with a lot when I was single in a big metropolitan area. I knew FOR SURE they were my friends & not trying to get in my pants! 

I definitely don't miss certain aspects of being single, LOTS of creeps out there for sure.

SAME!! I love me some gay men! LMAO

Guys can be total creeps for sure, glad you are focusing on yourself ProbablyAlready! I will say though... just when I was over dating and going to give up and become a cat lady... DH showed up out of nowhere. We took it slow, started as friends and well, the rest is history.
