While drinking is fine when done in moderation, as with all things as long as you don’t go overboard its all good.
However to many times in my short sober life, 5 years is not much. I have seen the recently divorced or rather the ones who made it into the rooms, after having a divorce at around 35-45 say the reason they were out there drinking, is the did not fit in, and by drinking and getting wild they felt like the fit in. (Fear) Some of these women have been taking advantage of in the worst way. Having these “new friends” empty out there life savings, abuse their kids, been willing to do things that make a whore look like a lady to fit in.
While the men, tend to not to lose too much. Sadly in most cases men can pick up and move on faster then women. Please don’t get me wrong, I know of a few women who can move on faster then any man I have every met.
Bottom line with anything that you enjoy or think you do, please ask yourself is this really what I like? Is this me? You know yourself better then anyone else or at least you should at this age. If not, dig deep and find out what you really want. Being alone for awhile is not a bad thing. If you were one of those who married at a young age, and never really dated, take your time, find out what you want out of life, there is no reason to rush out and make any life changing decisions. Life is too short to rush around all the time. Take the time out to enjoy what you have.
