What's the Baggage Limit on Mid-Life Flights?
Part 1
by Susan Dunn

Page: 1 2 3

Baggage!" my friend Claude said to me. "She called the woman I once loved 'baggage'. This is my life. It's part of me.

Dating at mid-life has special challenges. One of them is how much baggage is allowed on the flight!

We don't use the term "baggage" to apply to happy events and positive emotions. It refers to those things that weigh us down, keep us from being emotionally available for a new commitment, like former marriages, but also other adversities and problems.

"How can a person go through this," you may be thinking, "and still be sane?" You wonder how resilient he is, how damaged, how available for new love.

Dating at mid-life will quickly rid you of fantasies that anyone out there has had a perfect life, or a life free of problems.

So how do you separate "baggage" from "too much baggage?

1. "Carry-ons" are okay. They're part of a long, full life.

2. "Weigh it" when the bags might be over the limit. Look it over, give it time, remain open.

3. "Chuck it!" Massive baggage definitely over-the-limit that jeopardizes your safety. Bless this person and release the relationship. You can have sympathy for them, but you can't be a therapist AND a lover.

Here are some general guidelines:

1. FORMER SPOUSE (DIVORCE).

a. Carry on: The conversation touches lightly on the former spouse occasionally, or he occasionally compares you positively with the former spouse. Signs of forgiveness, resolution and availability are being at peace with oneself, and having goodwill toward the ex.

b. Weigh it: The conversation returns to the former spouse more than you'd like, he's compared you negatively to her more than once, or has occasional negative comments about marriage. When he talks about it, there's more sadness than anger, indicating he's saying "good bye" to her emotionally, as he tells you "hello." Watch for the ambivalence to subside.

c. Chuck it: He's obsessed with her, with high levels of anger. You see no progress. Hating is as deep an emotional investment as love, and allows no room for a new relationship.
