Been single for a couple months now. My schedule sucks. I literally have no time for friends. The friends I do have, never seem to want to do anything. Not left with a lot of options. Does the loneliness ever fade?

hello dear

I have been divorced for 11 years now and I cannot say that the loneliness ever fades. I HAVE learned how to cope with it (the kids hate my newest project; learning how to can and preserve our food cause they hate washing all those jars lol). However, I am still extremely lonely and as I am fairly picky over who I will consider as a potential match (not in regards to physical attributes, but the type of person she is or is not; how she holds herself both in private and in public; her personality, etc), I have had an extremely hard time finding that one person.

Chin up though because as time goes on, you will find your own coping methods, some of which will more likely than not annoy your children lol. They don't make things better, but they do help.
