Do you have a problem with alcohol? I wondered because there is so much socializing that can be done
without booze. Do you like physical activities like jogging, biking, skiing, skating, swimming? Do you have a pet? It's still a man's world, and men my age are still the ones to ask a woman out, so if I seriously wanted to date I would either join activities where I'd be likely to meet men (who might ask me out), or I'd join a dating site or ask my friends for introductions to their eligible friends. Have you considered volunteering anyplace? You don't have to let your life continue in the same way; you can make changes. Courage!
