Lost My Way After Divorce

Anonymous Secret Peach #984 · General Confessions

I got divorced recently and have been feeling really lost without a partner. I started seeking comfort elsewhere in something new, little did I know it would become my crutch. Lately, I've been going to these sessions with someone older who's always there for me when no one else is around. They take care of everything; I just... relax and let go. It's comforting but also confusing because it feels like such a shift from the life I was leading before. It's nice not having decisions or responsibilities, but sometimes I wonder if this is what my life should be now? Do people find these kinds of setups healthy, or are they just band-aids over deeper issues? Is there something wrong with finding solace in being taken care of like a child again after divorce? What do others think about it?
