Hmmm...you gals are way ahead of me (or behind me?) in the dating arena. I haven't dated or looked at a man now for almost three years, after successive attempts at forming romantic relationships after my divorce at age 46.
I've had ten years of hurt and long recoveries during which I just put one foot in front of the other. Now, age 56, I've settled on the comfort and safety of solitude and my family of pets!
I had four relationships in 10 years, each of which cost me dearly, both emotionally and financially. Be very careful about making a commitment and becoming "vulnerable."
I am at that stage where I no longer have the desire to be so! Let the hair on my legs grow!
Love
Patty
