My sister is ill with a cold that has turned into pneumonia. She is someone extraordinary--someone who has loved me fiercely. She often felt like the older, stronger one, instead of the other way around. i wrote a short piece about her. I'm sure I'm embarrassing her since she prefers to stick to the background. I'm so thankful for her. For the way she's watched out for me all these years. . . . .
Well, I learned some big news. Life-changing news. I'm autistic. Here's more about it (see profile for link). . . . https://kerrymcavoyphd.com/my-shocking-discovery-at-58-years-old-that-i-have-autism/?utm_campaign=coschedule&utm_source=tumblr&utm_medium=kmcavoyphd&utm_content=My%20Shocking%20Discovery%20at%2058%20Years%20Old%20That%20I%20Have%20Autism
Taking a stand for myself is difficult. I hate the limelight. Actually all attention is unpleasant to me. Did you know the type of person who is the opposite of a narcissist?

Someone recently sexually exploited me online, but worse yet was all the victim-blaming I received after the fact. What is going on? Thoughts? https://kerrymcavoyphd.com/i-was-victim-blamed-after-being-sexually-exploited-online/?utm_campaign=coschedule&utm_source=tumblr&utm_medium=kmcavoyphd&utm_content=I%20Was%20Victim-Blamed%20After%20Being%20Sexually%20Exploited%20Online

I know this topic is very controversial, but I've snooped on my partner's phone. Have you? When is this legitimate?

Someone just asked me how many concessions I was willing to make any given relationship. This question knocked me back. I know I make many sacrifices.

I don't know if this has happened to you but I've had friends ghost me. I lost two key relationships right after Brad died. I don't get it. I asked twice but got no answer.

About two years ago I visit Frida Kahlo's home located in Mexico City. My now ex and I walked through this amazing place. It hit me--she'd been married to a Sex Addict, like me. Here's what that experience was like: 💔 Leaving my Sex Addict & Frida Kahlo https://kerrymcavoyphd.com/learning-from-frida-kahlo-how-to-leave-my-sex-addict/
Someone contacted me after reading one of my post and wanted to know if I had been married to a Sex Addict... yeah, I had. Here's what I told her. It's what I wished I could have told myself three years earlier.😞 What It's Like Being Married to a Sex Addict https://kerrymcavoyphd.com/what-its-like-being-married-to-a-sex-addict/
So, i have had several dates and there's a common denominator, sex. What is it with this dating culture? The hookup mentality is ruining my dating life. (sign...) I'm done for a while. Exhausted. Here's the rest of the story--- How My Dating Life Is Being Ruined by the Hookup Mentality https://kerrymcavoyphd.com/my-dating-life-is-being-ruined-by-hookup-mentality/
I can't believe it's been almost five years ago when I lost Brad. I was listening a continuing educational class on Chronic Pain. He said as part of the training that he thought divorce was more painful than being widowed. I have to disagree, at least for today. Maybe not every day, but for today. Here are more of my thoughts-- Being Widowed is More Painful than Being Divorced https://kerrymcavoyphd.com/being-widowed-is-more-painful-than-being-divorced/
Isuspect none of you who have been following my journey are surprised to hear that being single is hard. I've been wrestling with God. Particularly Apostle Paul's declaration that it is a "gift." Really?? Here are some of my thoughts-- How Can Being Single Be a Gift from God? https://kerrymcavoy.com/how-can-being-single-be-a-gift-from-god/
Big news! 🎉 The first draft of my memoir is completed! Yahoo!! I’m so excited! In the writing of it I discovered something disturbing (notwithstanding that I’d married a Sex Addict), I had repressed some of memory. 🤦🏻♀️ I had to recover it, though.

What gives? One more time I've met someone online and start chatting only to have he ghost me once he realized sex was out of the question. 🤦🏻♀️ Have we all forgotten the subtle art of seduction?? The Art of Online Flirting - Kerry Kerr McAvoy https://kerrymcavoy.com/the-art-of-online-flirting/
