I'm in my sixties now. Honestly, for the past 8 years, bad health and age has taken its toll on me. Im not 'pretty'. We've been married coming up on 43 years. My hubby is rarely far from me, as he is handicapped.
I am sick to death of men assuming that because my husband was in a wheel chair and now walks with a quad cane, and because he is hearing impared, that I'm in need of some jerk who thinks he can just step in and take over for my childhood sweetheart.
Men assume "homeless=prostitute, or just plain trash". When we first hit the road, we stupidly let someone talk us into attending church dinners. Dumb ass men who had nothing to offer anyway even if I had been single kept bothering us. One guy sat right between us and offered me sex and pot right there in church.
I live in loose t-shirts and jeans, wear no make up, constantly attend hubby, and ignore people for the most part. I am not bragging, I'm stating facts. I'm what Mr. Trump would call horsefaced.
Is it the lifestyle? Is it the general population?
You finally tell the more persistent bastards to **** off and die and they act shocked, as if I'm some sort of freak?
One thought was that they see how well we are doing and think they can weasel in? That I'd take better care of some total stranger (looser) than a guy I've known over two thirds of my life? Been through hell with on both our sides medically?
I have been verbally attacked for refusing this attention, threatened with my husband being run over and our cat killed (he was dumbfounded i called the police) and more crap than I ever had happen when we were brick and mortar dwellers.
Is the world just getting crappier, or is this "normal"?
And yes there are more decent men out there, I've had a couple back off the moment I intentionally bring up my husband, and yes I've hung onto my rings and make sure they are in clear view, but the ass holes tend to stand out.
What is going on? Has it gotten worse for other women, alone or partnered?
