Yep. I'm at that point. I went to the bar tonight alone, and while I had fun like I used to do, the goal wasn't there. I had some looks and some exchanges with women that validated me as still being desireable, but I had no desire to follow through with any of it. It's nothing I want for them or me.
The difference is my 6yo daughter with my patents right now. When she comes back on Monday she is my absolute complete focus of my life since the divorce. And she will be every day she is with me until she goes back to my parents every other weekend.
I could go back to the ex wife and I know she would be ok with having casual relations, but it's shit for everyone, so let's spare us the time.
I never thought of myself as someone who would hurt my pride and take "the easy way", but there's something different now about going to a sex worker. Masterbating only goes so far until I need physical touch. And it's not even about courting a woman, it would be using them to bring one into my life right now.
Honestly, paying for a hookup is the perfect solution, but I'm really struggling with bringing myself to do it. Mostly pride I guess. Can someone help me out to just go through with it? I'm completely naive where to even start.
