Very dedicated coffee drinker here. My favorites are the italian and french roasts. Hot and black. And strong.

I order it for my keurig online from their website. Great deals, and I get some of it auto-delivered.

I've liked coffee since the first time I tried it as a kid. I was prolly 6 or so.

Not much of a Dark Roast drinker. I do like Starbucks Blonde stuff, but they get none of my money anymore.

My soon to be ex never touched a cup of coffee until she was 44. She started smoking a year later. Those are things that make you hmmm. The coffee I understand, but the smoking no, I smoked for a number of years before quitting...

That’s odd. Most people don’t pick up “coffee and cigs” at middle age. I’m assuming she was hangin with a new crowd of friends,new scene,or a lover. Usually fooling around on you is what comes to my mind first in those situations.

Ugh, I SO hope you are wrong. Poor lukin still doesn't know because he's not divorced yet. My friend is very heartbroken & therefore may not reply to your post. Not intentionally of course.

I’m not wrong I’m right. I don’t play games about relationships and telling people the truth either. You people have no idea....I’m as crushed as a humans heart can be,and have been for decades. It’s a freaking never ending nightmare for me,and can’t wait for it at all to end. Put it this way....I’ll NEVER watch La La Land again....if that gives you any inclinations. Just gut wretching to know I’ll never have my happy ending. And I’m a hopeless romantic!!! Try that brand of bitter coffee. But I can empathize with a great many situations,and help people who are suffering. He’ll be alright eventually....he will,I know he will. You all have homes,friends,family,careers,pets,things that you all take for granted in life. I don’t have ANY of that. Just some little dude stuck on the moon viewing a world I’m not allowed to participate in.
He just needs to find new interests in life,and be with someone who shares HIS values and interests,and accept she wasn’t whom he thought she was,and not sit around lying to himself about it. Get rid of all her stuff too...allll of it. Doesn’t mean squat. Go buy new clothes,go buy a new car,go buy a new life need be,and don’t look back. Never should he compromise his heart or values either,that’s our only real treasure we possess,and he should save it for someone who’s saving themselves for him. And she’s out there....I know she is!!! But first he has to focus on himself. Not what “she did wrong” but what areas of HIS life that need improving,and how to be honest with yourself and say “that’s ok,I made a mistake” and know that “miss someone” is going to fill allll those voids and then some. I know It’s not easy,and it hurts like hell for him right now and will,(rejection SUCKS!!) but the alternatives are a dead end to nowhere fast,when you should be preparing the table settings for someone new.

I agree, more I think about it, the more questions I have. Best not to think about.

Hey man,don’t. Just move on,I’m telling you...just focus on being the best you for the girl whom is sure to come around. You’ll find each other when you least expect,so don’t go looking for it,or forcing it,or think you’re a loser or nothing. This is all just temporary. In the meantime,that’s your new goal,and I want you to keep your chin up buddy. Ok?

No...I’m not saying to jump in again. Just be single,work on your stuff and new interests,and just “to know” that girl is on the horizon down the road,and she’s going to surprise you big time. I’m never wrong. I’m also not wrong your ex won’t be as happy as she thinks. Short term they’re always living it up...long term? She’ll be drinking that same bitter cocktail you’re drinking now. Just the laws of the game my friend,and no one is immune from it. Seen it,lived it,know it.

Thank you for everyone's advice and kind words. This week has been one of the best since my wife left ... you wanna know why? It"s football season...the best time of the year.

I love regular home brewed coffee. Colombian dark roast.
You can keep the tricked up gourmet and coffee shop crap.

Strait up black. No cream or sugar.
