Is that on Netflix ? I need that in my life <| sep |> I ' m so sorry . I should stop egging people to spend money <| sep |> I ' m late thirties and divorced . Frankly , I ' m not really looking . In part because I ' m enjoying single life and figuring out who I am all over again , and in part because there really aren ' t many men available that I would be interested in . I ' m a western revert so a lot of things men take for granted that their wife will be like or do , just aren ' t going to happen with me . I speak plainly , I don ' t treat men like kittens and I expect him to participate at home to a higher degree than most Muslim men expect . On the flip side , I find most men to be horribly boring , and yet desperate for attention . I don ' t care about your sports team , your video games , your clothes . I don ' t want to listen to your incredibly biased political opinions and I ' m not going to just nod my head like i think you ' re brilliant . Why would I want to spend every evening running and fetching him tea and watching stupid soap opera type shows in a foreign language I don ' t understand ? I ' d rather be with my own friends . I know I know I ' m awful . But really , the only single men in my age bracket either want a second wife for a few years while they ' re in my country before they go back home to their real wife , or they just want a passport so they can go home and get a real wife or they were so undesirable they didn ' t get picked up the first time Thru . If they are desirable , they want a younger , prettier woman than me , and one who won ' t see running around behind him picking up his dirty clothes as a means for expiating sins . Which I completely understand I don ' t fault them for wanting a more amenable , attractive , younger woman , it just means my options are slim to none . Even still , I ' ve had proposals , but none of them were even remotely religious enough . Wanting to text back and forth about nothing and they ' re not in the country . That guy ' s last text to me said I want you I can ' t catch you . uhhh nope Or the only thing they asked about me was my skin colour . Forget it . Or my personal favourite he ' s a great brother but the only thing maybe you wouldn ' t like is he ' s 20 years older than you . And divorced 5 times . And so . I knit . Edit to answer your questions that I missed , no , I wouldn ' t settle for less now in fact my standards have gone up , particularly with respect to deen . And I don ' t feel lonely . I have friends , I go to the mosque and I have a cat . Alhamdulilah .
