Edited to add: I know the title was written grammatically incorrect. It was an accident, grammer police! Sorry!


When it comes to dating/men...what area do you find yourself feeling self-conscious?

"But cooking, cleaning, running a household does not come natural to me.

Probably the fact I had a "starter" marriage before my 8 year marriage...so I'll be twice divorce. This fact gets me quite down on myself. I have not idea how I'll broach the subject one day when I start dating. It makes me feel like a loser.


My other self-conscious "issue" is of course my weight.....a 20 lb loss would help my body image. 40 would put me over the moon. I'm trying to start with baby steps now. I gave myself months (since Feb) to mourn and wallow and EAT (LOL), now I need to get healthy again. And not necessarily just for dating...but for myself and my children. With a STBX that is an alcoholic (and 10 years older than me), I worry/think about what would happen if something happened to me and they were left with him. What a disaster. So the things I can control (like my weight) I need to.
