You may or may not remember my (50HLM) original post here:

Well, it’s been 2 ish months and figured I’d report back, particularly for those who are afraid to go back to dating or even too afraid to be alone..

The overall theme of my recent two months has been lots and lots of sex (morning, daytime, night - the whole 9 yards!). I definitely passed 3-4 years of my former married self sex in these two months. Maybe more.

Also, there has not been a day in the last two months where I haven’t been held close or shared amazing moments of intimacy. Dates, dancing, sex, intimacy, movies on the couch, tv in bed, etc - this is the joy I wanted and got.

Living alone might seem scary but lean into your friends (or as with my case, establish new friends and strengthen old bonds), neighbors, etc.

Lastly - it was 100% worth it. Don’t continue (as I did for too long) to be miserable. We all deserve better.
