Hello everyone — I’m fairly new to posting and enjoying reading people’s thoughts here. It’s refreshing to see such honest conversation. Does anyone else find that it’s not big things they miss, but the small ones, conversation over a cup of tea, sharing a joke, feeling understood? I’m learning that wanting companionship again isn’t weakness, it’s human. Looking forward to chatting and getting to know others who still believe connection matters, whatever our age.

It’s something I’ve missed

What do you mean by connection? Do you think you need to be in a marriage to have connection?

You get used to it, and you find alternatives

There will nearly always be someone who has got what you have got or can suggest a different answer to a question, or come up with a new idea to you. Keep reading on
