Why do your friends and family think that they have a right to tell you what to do? I have recently changed things about myself. I used to be all about my children and not really ever thought about taking care of me. Well, I have decided that I will start doing what I want to do-including dating-again. I am trying to finally have a good time. I have been divorced for 6 1/2 years already. Isn't it time for me to have fun? My children are fine with this. We had a family meeting to discuss how they felt and everything. THEY-friends and family are concerned for me. They are talking about ME to their chidlren. WHAT IS IT -IS IT THEIR BUSINESS? I don't think so. Why do you think that people stick their nose into other people's business?

Dear Friend,I think it's great that you are moving on,and it's absolutely wonderful that you had a discussion about this decision with your kids.İf everyone is fine with that and if this is your life,they have no right to interfere .Live your life... People are talking about it because they have nothing better do to.As long as you take care of your family and yourself and not putting you and your family into a bad situation,you have every right to live your life and be happy...I wish you the best :-)

Seems to me that you are forgetting all the other groups that think they are different and superior to other people. What about the parasitic privileged class that thinks they should run the world? What about the millions of people who enforce the laws written by said parasites? Don't they owe their living to nosing around in other peoples business? If you want to criticize, why not those who force your obedience?

Well you might want to ask yourself who has supported you for the last 6 years. You did you ask for help, advise, guidance, etc. If that is your family and friends, then you given them the right to "stick their nose" into your business. I don't think it's wrong for you to have a life, it might even be good for the whole family, to have you taking care of yourself. But be careful not to overdue it. It's easy to get caught up in the excitement of dating and having fun and forget you have bigger responsibilities at home.

Some because they care, others because they think their opinions are worth more than yours. That's everyone's situation in the whole world. I chose not to be passive when people express their opinions about my business. I just tell them I appreciate their view but they know very little about the situation and should not voice opinions to me unless they are thought out better.
Oh do I get the looks, but they do as I say and instead of jumping up to say their opinion, they first think about it and then usually don't say anything.

My GAWD does your family want you to live a life without companionship? You've been divorced for 6 1/2 years---I think your family needs to MInd THEIR OWN Business!
You have every right to make yourself happy----One can not fulfill their needs through their children----Pamper yourself---have a date or two----have fun with your life----
You need to tell your family to BUTT out----If you want their opinion you'll ask for it!

defense mechanisms via relief of personal anxieties
projection - reaction formation - displacement
...and a dash of inferiority overcompensated into superiority complex
you are right in feeling a little violated, it sounds as though you have been very unselfish, and ought to start dating again

In this case because they are your friends and are concerned about you.
As you refer to your friends as "people" I think I can guess why you are so unhappy....
