I am separated - not divorced yet and have 3 sons 26 and 24.
Will they ask me who to date/marry - of course not. So when I find someone, my partner for the future - they won't come second but you would definately come first.
Any person that puts family before new love (unless it's young children) is not ready for a new relationship.
I have chatted with a few folk with no profile pic.
I have met a few folk as well, though by that time we have probably chatted on the phone or skyped. I have also been on skype with one person who does not look like her profile photo (she has her reasons) and we are still friends.
But can you just blame "someone"? Many countries are like Greece - at the moment not as bad off. But, we lived through the years off plenty, maxed out credit cards, housing boom etc
So are we not all to blame for not asking questions sooner?
At the moment I am looking ahead to holidays - is Greece a cheap option - No. Why is that?
I don't want to seem a leech feeding off someone elses misfortune. But it is an opportunity to bring revenue into the country.
You strike, fight and have started burning in your country - but what answers do you have?
I don't have any debt,never have, so I certainly don't understand that if you can't pay your debts why anyone - individual or country - thinks that the answer is borrow more.
Somewhere you have to draw a line and say no more - take the pain and at least get some degree of respect back.
President John F. Kennedy's most famous quote:
"My fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you -- ask what can you do for your country."
There are statistics for the divorce rate in a country but no stats for couples co-habiting. So maybe the divorce rate is low compared to couples separating.
I've no friends!
sur - any time you want to chat is good with me.be well and be happy
