This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I had a friend during nurse training who divorced at 50, thought she was never going to be in another relationship, then met someone with whom she was happier than she ever imagined.

It's definitely possible.

People can get married to the right person in their 20s or 30s, change into different people, split up and find that someone else is now the right person.

You also get access to a much larger widow/widower market once you pass 50...
