Episode Eight of the second season of The Dating After Divorce Survival Guide finds Eric off whatever high horse he was on and giving in to his sexual urges without remorse or concern that he is ruining his life as a Christian. He doesn't hold back and as he discovers that living a carefree and expectation-free existence gets him the attention, adoration and women with an ease that goes beyond what he ever imagined. But he quickly learns that when you recklessly let go of the things you keep under control you run the risk of losing control — completely.

Post-divorce trauma is real and it can show up in more than one place. Eric is not okay. Picking up where we left off at Episode 5, Episode 7: Joy and Pain — Soul Ties and Ho Cake packs a punch that hits:

1. Putting your ex-wife on Do Not Disturb
2. HBCUs
3. Creating a spreadsheet to evaluate prospective dates
4. Breaking soul ties
5. Experiencing joy
6. Being your own boss at someone else's job
7. The power of choice and the dangers that come with
8. The lies we tell ourselves to get through our pain and our days
9. and some great music from Temper

And someone from Season One reemerges with new energy (insert dramatic sound effect) before it's all over.

Welcome to a special edition of The Dating After Divorce Survival Guide. I was personally impacted by the death of Rayshard Brooks as it occurred mere minutes from my house. In light of it being Juneteeth and with Father's Day 2020 only a couple days away I decided to break from the story line of post-divorce Eric getting his life together and discuss the racial and civil unrest of the past few weeks along with some very special guests who share why they love being dads.

Eric has kept a trump card tucked away in his back pocket — a secret he doesn't even share with even his closest friends and his newly retained mentors who are helping him along his journey to new life post-divorce. It's something that give him brief pleasure but it is a source of great shame. What am I talking about? Married women who are ready and willing whenever Eric wants their company. In this episode Eric shares how he finds himself in this situation as a divorced man who believed so much in being faithful while married and what, if anything, he does to rectify it.

About the Podcast:

The Dating After Divorce Survival Guide is a biweekly, serial podcast that thoughtfully and often hilariously narrates the journey of a man in his forties - faced with the challenge of starting over after divorce - and navigating the treacherous landscape of dating in the Age of the Internet and the smartphone. 

This is a podcast about real life! It's transparent, it’s raw, it’s funny, it’s messy, and it’s hopeful, but most of all it’s proof that second chances do in fact exist for us when life doesn’t go as planned. 

Eric's dating journey continues, but not without its challenges. He has to deal with

1. his ex-wife texting him a whole lot more than he'd like,
2. showing up late for dates, and
3. learning what to share and what not to share when meeting new people

As much as you try to move forward with your life sometimes the past won't let go.

Episode 3 arrives this Thursday, 05.07.2020.

Eric gains a very powerful ally along his quest to better manhood: the Black woman. In this episode, he extolls his love for them and why black women matter — reasons that go beyond the basics of love and companionship.

But Eric is still new on his journey into middle-aged, single life. He is contending with self-image a.k.a. his weight, and temptation awaits him around every corner — even at a birthday party.
