Divorced women and coffee
I’ve (47M) been dating around for the last four years since my divorce. Many of the women I dated were divorced too. During that time, I’ve made a curious observation:
Many - but not all - of the divorced women bought themselves a rather expensive espresso machine of some sort when they moved into their own home. By looking at the way they use it, you can often tell how long ago they divorced. For the first year, they use it almost daily. After about a year they get tired of cleaning it all the time, so they only use it when they have guests coming over. After about two years it’s broken and not getting fixed, but they still leave it out in the kitchen because they like the machine.
It seems like some sort of understandable and really quite endearing self-care after a rough time divorcing.
Has anyone else seen this, and can you offer an explanation?
