After my wife had an affair, I extended my wardrobe to try to find myself.After a while, I decided that, adopting various looks/personas really wasn't me, and abandoned attempts to 'find myself'. I'm happy now, studying, working out, planning with concrete goals for the future and, working somewhere I'm happy to be. I even thought "fuck it" and had a nose job to help remedy a defect and recapture my youth. In Feb I'm having a face-lift. Soon I will complete the OU math and physics courses I've been studying, which will hopefully help me get a PhD place next year or in 2026 (in the past I made a connection with a Harvard prof, who has said he will endorse my application). Recently, I received plans for the self-build home I'm looking at. Now need to find some land. It's a long way from the council estate I grew up on. Like many of you here, I too, am indomitable. Onward and upward....
