I'm pulling for all I'm worth and they put a Goddamn woman next to me
who thinks an oar is a way to get rid of her fat ass.
I'm not meaning to get in the middle of this, but I would join a senior citizens center. As you said, it is not like you are getting married, so go mingle with the women, as there are lots of widows and divorced women who like having man friends, they do not have to marry. You like things Minnesotans like, they like things Minnesotans like, so go like Minnesota together. It is not the end, but a beginning as you said, you are too healthy to drop dead, so go find some plumpers to have coffee with as plumpers have bone pile friends. Go be friendly as you are an interesting and friendly man.
Mary Ann and Ginger said it best, "In what does a woman want? What another woman has got." Not telling you to go make the woman jealous as that would be a mistake, but just follow her perscription, in she wants fun, well you worked to have fun, so go have fun.
Having listened to whiner women, they soon discover after they think life will be fun, that life has problems and men being around solve problems, women get taken by scam artists over. The money runs out, and then they wonder what went wrong. That is God's doing in lessons taught, so you just go enjoy yourself.
It occurred to me that it is Jacob's Trouble not Jacob's Fun Time. Rough times are coming, rough times are here, and people who are off thinking God put them here to have fun, are going to discover life is not so much fun.
As you are a liberated male now, chivalrous companion to all, I wanted to make the point that a Christmas card was mailed last year. If you did not receive one, then it was not on our end. Did not want a mix up to be blamed here.
I would not worry about a divorce, that is not your problem. Your retirement is what she does not get as her Social Security if the knot is cut, as far as I know, and I doubt 500 bucks a month on her working is as glam as it seems.
So look for the positives in this. You are emancipated. You can go have fun. You don't have to answer to anyone but God, and go enjoy yourself as you live the life gave you, and you do not wait around for the women to bestow their presence on you.
Kind of tough talk, but your good nature has been taken advantage of in house fix ups, which probably should come out of someone's share, but it is Minnesota, and you would have to check the legalities.
TL wanted me to say this, but blame me if it comes out wrong. Get yourself some Caucasian companions to be man coffee with. TL has experience with the Asians, and if they are not island people, you get a people who is playing the angle far too often. So stick with the Church going, small town, farm gal, forest creatures who are Republican. Should be easy to see the ones with Trump stuff on.
As I said Viking, go live the life God gave you and remember looters can't burn the house down, if it has been sold.
God bless you and I apologize for the too frank stuff, but you have been beat upon too long. Go find some plumpers with thin friends who are White who know about Viking things without explaining.
