Aside: What are some of your favorite TAL eps from more than one or two years ago? If you can recall.

Same here. Two divorces in my family (I'm including parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles, cousins) and I think I have like two friends with divorced parents. All my friends and acquaintances who got married are still married.

It's like rooting through the bargain bin hoping someone accidentally marked down a piece of treasure.

You are embarrassing yourself.

This sucks for those of us who were counting on bagging ourselves divorcées.

How on earth do you know they don't rape?

Facesitting, huh? Face-fucking still encouraged, though, I presume.

Lesbians don't want to find a man good enough for them. They want to find good women, which could be why they "manage just fine."

To have found someone who is presumably the right partner vs. being totally alone well past 28 ... I know what I'd prefer.

I'm sorry if this is your first time commenting on a Jez article because people done lost their damn minds about this and are interpreting your words very uncharitably.

Well bully for you two. This topic is giving me a panic attack and I am admittedly bitter. Good day.

It's a personal thing until it's time for the engagement party and the shower and the bachelor party and the *~*wedding weekend extravaganza*~* etc. etc. It's not personal where the attention-whoring and gift-grabbing is concerned but everything else? That's personal!

No it sounds like s/he's someone who recognizes that appropriating the term "victim-blaming" to apply to people who got divorced is absurd and insulting, to both victims and divorcees. It makes sense if the divorce happened due to abuse or infidelity or something but that doesn't even come up in this piece.

There's a three year window between the divorce the age she'll be when she ties the knot again so it does sound like she immediately got serious with a new guy OR she met him a little later but he put a ring on it immediately. Either way ...

Maybe they're jealous that you got to have two people commit to you before you even hit 30.

Never mind.

Raise better men. Then dating will be better for straight women.

That's not my style, not satisfying for me. I wish it were.

The engraved gift is such a miniscule thing to focus on but I understand why you're doing it. In the scheme of things it is nothing but it gives you this connection to him that you're hesitant to sever. I was also embarrassed to break-up because it was like, "j/k we're not getting married after all" and "yeah, turns…

Good for you. Mind if I ask what you do about physical intimacy? If my bffs lived near me I think I could get by with cuddling them while watching movies and eating ice cream. But they don't. I go for long stretches of time starved for physical affection between moronic men who are only good for spooning and fucking…
