Bonnie, love your writing, but try being a twice-divorced guy at 50. Everyone assumes you’ve got SERIOUS character flaws. They ask the most invasive questions: ‘why did your marriages fail?’ I sometimes get that one in literally the FIRST conversation on the dating scene. ‘Fail’? Fortunately, I’ve decided to employ the ‘midlife crisis’ strategy, bought a motorcycle, am getting in shape, and have dusted off my Argentine tango. I’m not going to worry about dating and just crush this ‘happy single man’ thing for a while…

Seriously though, I read most of what you write. Thanks for sharing such intimate slices of your life and thoughts.
