legaleye Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 men???? I am 41 and I live in a metro area so to speak (close to NYC). The bar scene is so not me. I don't have many friends....most are just people from work who are 20 years younger than me. I'd like to get myself out there and see what could happen, but where to go? I don't make friends quickly. All my "friends" took sides during the divorce. I'm tired of being alone all the time. I'm not looking to remarry or have a serious relationship, I'm just looking to "get my feet wet". Any ideas or suggestions out there? I could really use some.
curiousnycgirl Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 I am 43 and met my b/f of 4 years online. You have to weed through a tremendous amount of BS, but with a discerning eye you can meet some quality people online. I have the feeling my relationship is going south - so I'll be right out there with you soon. Good luck to us both!
Author legaleye Posted June 2, 2008 Author Posted June 2, 2008 I tried the online thing years ago....it was horrible! Too many really just looking for a quick hook up. What are the more reputable online dating sites, if you don't mind me asking?
curiousnycgirl Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 They all attract wackos. You need to learn, very quickly, how to week them out and find the quality folks. Be very specific in your post - honest about yourself and detailed about what you are looking for. Read every note carefully - if not enough information is provided, say so. If not interested say thanks but no thanks. I still have a number of good friends I met online, in addition to my b/f
Author legaleye Posted June 2, 2008 Author Posted June 2, 2008 Thanks so much for the reply. I will try the online dating. But I don't want to "put all my eggs in one basket". Any other suggestions out there? I'm not going to meet anyone at a gym or grocery store or hobby class....that won't happen. I don't want to just rely on online dating
