Question

  Posted to group - Dating 2.0    <<Previous    Next>>

New here

Separated from my wife last May and still waiting for the divorce to be finalized. Dated all of last summer or I should say met numerous women. I don't think I was ready for it and it showed. Stopped looking and I'm lonely now but I need to get my life sorted out before I wade back in the dating pool again. I am a virtual hermit except for work and I'd love to change that.

Me to. Company. No commitments. No overnites. Just a movie or something to eat. That would be fun!

I don't know what I'm ready for. I haven't been active in the dating pool since last summer and I have no concrete plans for starting.  Whatever happens happens. Right now I'd settle for somebody free to see a movie. :-)

I think you need to finalize your divorce first and let the ink dry before your out looking for a new relationship.
What about family, friends, co-workers. They can be a great support during this sad and lonely time. Volunteer (a great way to meet people), take a class in something that interests you (another way to meet people with like interests), join a church if not a member, find a divorce group in your area. I agree, working all the time is not good but trying to fill the void in with another relationship when you are not ready is not good either.
Good luck and hang in there. You will meet people if you put yourself out there.

welcome to the group.  are you sure you're really ready to start dating?  you may not like being alone, but dating before you're ready could end up being a disaster for both of you.  maybe take this time to take up a new hobby or something?
