Being on both sides of the coin, I learned that "the grass is greener where you water it." When i was married a cute female would walk by and my friends and I would say "DAMN if only I was single" After divorce, talking to females beyond "Hey!" was a challenge on its own. I'd fumble my words and act stiff like it was my first job interview ever. Being married it was nice to always have someone to talk to at anytime about anything. I could tell my wife about traffic from work, the lunch spot I went to was gross, or I just random shit that I wouldn't call up my boys for. Being single I had to get used to being alone but I could go out to a bar on my own with no questions asked.
