Exhale, there is plenty of fish in the sea, and that’s not a wife’s tale. Mend your net. I was 47 when left with three teenagers, a dog, and a cat. Different things helped, I even produced a play. Don’t believe that real men only want plastic surgery kittens. We attract who we are, water seeks its own level, you take yourself where you go (clichés but true). Make changes even if it’s on a therapist couch. If your lover wants back – unless he was a beater or pervert - and you think there’s a chance; shelve your pride. It might be a growth experience – I had one and it served me for more than the relationship. You both must be willing to go the miles it takes. There is no going back. Don’t pick up the old emotional mattress. Get into a marriage group. http://www.retrouvaille.org/
