Or maybe just not the right guys for you. I had a lot of aimless, pointless dates or brief relationships that went nowhere

 

you're right. The right guy will come along eventually, I just gotta be patient.

Yeah. Do other stuff you like and that fulfills you. And don't hide your head in shame. Lol

How long were you single before you met your lovely wife?

Ok I can't complain with only 1.5 since divorce ...I'll too be patient.

 

If you met a great gal but she was in the middle of a divorce ...would you discount her or move on?

Speaking hypothetically, I would not have discarded her. As long as she seemed up for it. And could put up with me. Lol

Also I did have short relationships here and there in the interim - one or two months

Each day we wake up, we run the chance of finding the special person in our life.

 

So far, 49 years of waking up…… well…

 

its a whole lot easier to find gold in the ocean. lol

See I'm in the same boat as you... as a guy.

 

And, I get told things will happen when you least expect it.

 

But keep things open, as in don't become bitter and not giving a woman a chance when you least expect to date someone.

 

So, I do my own thing, and if I meet someone and it leads to something... then great! Otherwise, I go on with my day and do the things I normally do.

 

I mean something good is bound to happen at some point.

I'm in exactly the same boat. Came out of a longterm relationship, dated two guys since both of whom weren't "looking for a relationship". At least one had the decency to tell me pretty early on so I didn't continue wasting my time or emotional energy.

 

 

I try to see the positive though and if anything, it's given me a bit more dating experience and hopefully next time it will work out. Also, its reassured me that it's not too difficult to meet guys who I find attractive, as I am super picky and I was worried I would meet a guy I was interested in after I split up with my ex!

 

 

I know it's hard, but try and brush it off, continue to hang out with your friends and have fun and I'm sure all will fall into place :)

Its pretty obvious that the key to meeting someone is really just "go out". There are opportunities all over. We all think the same,,, the comparisons to the ex, the "will I find another".

 

Truth is, the "other" is out there.

 

They too are hoping.

 

They too are waiting.

 

They too are living a life as we all do (unless they are in prison) lol
