Righteous Blue... Relationships in Midlife

Let's face it, looking for love and relationships at this point in our lives is tricky. If you find yourself falling for someone you're dating, you tend to be more analytical and dig into the why.

Is it the easy intimacy?

The great sex? Is it the hits of oxytocin feeding your addiction?

Is it the care they give that you forgot you needed? That you feel seen?

That you are playful and laugh freely in each other's company?

That there is potential for a future together?

Is there consistency along with deep connection in the relationship?

Any communication challenges?

Are you compatible enough to weather the downturns?

Will they prioritize you as you grow older together and your midlife body starts to be in decline?

Trust and dependability questions in your relationships become so much more important now.

DAMN. Being single is so much easier.

Welcome to your third curve and interpersonal perspective shifts.

Thankfully you are still an independent, free-thinking goddess. So don't settle.

You've got this.

This post pairs well with 'Strangelove' by Depeche Mode.
