Chapter 14:

The Grass Isn’t Always Greener,

but It’s Still Freakin Grass

I have learned a lot about men recently. There are the guys who are overly confident, cocky, young, and successful, who think they are better than you and will treat you like dirt. They also talk to so many women that they say emotionally forward things to you like, “Miss you babe,” after your first date. They are way too comfortable after dating 1,000 women every day. Then there are the nerdy guys who never really got a lot of women, but they are now making money, so they think if they buy you enough dinners, you owe them some sexy, sexy time. There are also the 55-plus old guys who go out like it’s their job, either do cocaine or provide it so the young girls will hang around, and are addicted to Lexapro and Viagra. They fuck everything that walks and do not feel sorry about it. They will play the teddy bear role to try and get you off your game, and the minute you fall for it, you will find them at your nearest shit hole bar with the town hoochie straddling them. If you try to keep up with this kind of guy, they will chew you up, spit you out, and then jump all over your regurgitated body. Then, there is the kind older man who has never settled down, clearly because something is wrong with him, and he is emotionally or mentally inept, and is now very lonely and looking for a wife. Not a specific one, just anyone in general. They will be happy to tell you this to your face over dinner.

I have dated some, all, or a combination of these guys over the past few weeks, and I must tell you, it really pissed me off. Not only do these gentleman think they hold all the cards because they have penises and a credit card, but in general, they think women are out to tie a guy down and that it is their job to duck and dodge it. I have come around not trying to do that, as I was literally just trying to get through my situation. I was lonely. I decided to treat dating like a huge experiment. I realized that I had spent every day for years with my spouse. We only ever spent a handful of days apart. He was my best friend, my business partner, my cheerleader, my confidant. Now I literally had no one. There is nothing like going home to a cold bed covered in dog hair, because your pug is the only physical affection you get these days and you love to cuddle with him.

I had come to the realization that I was pissed off. I was pissed off that I lost my spouse, and that he lied to me about everything and left me on my own with nothing. And I was mostly pissed, because I didn’t choose this route. I didn’t choose to be in this situation.
