YES! I totally understand. I mean, I'm not exactly putting myself out there, but even when I do, it doesn't work out.

I'm not exactly the kind of girl that looks good on paper. When guys see that I'm 35 (still having issues with that ) never been married, and I don't want kids, I don't get very many responses. I think it's the "don't want kids" part. Most guys my age already have them or, if they don't, they're in a big hurry to have them. Like I said, I live in a family-oriented area.

I haven't totally given up, but I feel like I need to get out of my current "funk" and learn to be a little more social (which I believe is being discussed in another thread) before I try dating again. I'm in no shape to even try right now. Hell, I freak out when my current friends want to hang out with me. Ha.
