I got married in my drinking days, was a bad idea, since I quit drinking there has been no women in my life

I am fairly misanthropic. Would need to be a very understanding partner.

Why didn’t continue drinking so that you can keep your wife?

Yes me as well @anon94176359 mate. It would take one hell of a woman to put up with my drinking, mood swings - from laughing to inane crap - to going to bed crying for a couple of days.

They simply are not out there for me. I dont place much importance now on sex and relationships now im older - i take it when i can get it - and go back to living on my own when there aint none.

Sadly only one girl has shown interest in me since I left school, and my days of meeting people often are over.

I’ve been in a relationship most of the time since 16. I was engaged once. Mental health issues are a big problem both when trying to find a partner and when trying to keep one. Unfortunately. I think cancer is generally much easier on a relationship than sz is.

I have a 27 year relationship that goes well.

When I meet her, she was just getting out of a relationship with an abusive husband. I knew all about alcoholism because I grew up with an alcoholic father. I had done the recovery work and could help her a bit where she was at.

I haven’t had any last more than a year and I haven’t tried since I got sz.

I was married for 25 years, divorced, and we still get along well as friends, and jumped right into another marriage of 6 years now.

Been married longer than Ive been single.

Was/is my Sz a problem for the marriage?
Not really, because as we like to say,

"I’m loco,
and he’s
“otro poco.”

I’m ‘crazy’
and he’s
a little more.

A long relationship isn’t about finding the perfect mate,
it’s more about knowing when to apologize,
and when to forgive.

I’ve been married for 18 years. Before that I was in a relationship for 7 years, broke up and dated a rebound for a few months.

My husband and I were together 6 months and then we married.

I never dated in high school or college. I only dated once a couple years after college after meeting someone online and after 8 months of dating, 18 months of engagement, married him and have been married almost 11 years now. We have five children now. I am very happy. I haven’t asked him recently if he is, though. He does come home everyday. :thinking:
