Nerve Dating Confessions

January 3, 4:53PM Trying to find the strength to reinvent myself and my life after divorce. It's so hard. I really let myself go and it's overwhelming figuring out where to start. CAN RELATE (4) CAN'T RELATE (2) FLAG FOR ABUSE

Would you be divorced if you hadn't let yourself go? Did you take your spouse for granted?

It doesn't take to much to get it back together, I didn't let myself go, but I quit trying hard. So now I am taking the steps to try again. My bet is that you don't have to reinvent yourself, just start trying again. Get some advice from our friends of the opposite sex.

start with exercise. it'll not only make you look better and give you more confidence, it'll make you feel better (the endorphins, more energy, etc.).

Don't think, just do. Exercise, yes, def good for bod and brain but really, first cut yourself some slack and things will start to fall into place. Trust me - started this 2 years ago and things got awesome about 6 months ago bc I stopped being hard on myself

Interesting discussion here. Ladies, what led you to let yourselves go? Many, many people would love to understand this phenomenon.
