Difficult to date again?

This is a difficult area, it depends on how you are feeling, my ex was on the dating scene almost straight after we agreed to split, registered on sites etc. She was going stready within four months and moved in the bloke within a 10 months!

I on the other hand have had a couple of fleeting romances and not felt too comfortable with either. So have decided its all too soon, even after 15 months.

Even though I a seperated, I felt like I as cheating on my ex, or my kids and was uncomfortable with the concept of somebody seeing me with another women.

It is difficult, both to find someone and then to accept the concept of being with somebody other than your ex. Take your time, you will know when the time is right.

good luck

Its alright speculating would I wouldnt I What I want to know is how you go about it. Don't think I could ever join a dating agency its just not me. Can anyone share how they have met their partners with us.

Whenever I think about sex, my ex invades my dreams. When I can think about sex without her invading my head, I think i will be ready! 10 weeks so far...

Ps I have had a date and enjoyed it very much! It's hard to see how it could go very deep though. Still, maybe with the right person...

Whatnow I couldn't agree more. It has been 9 months for me and although not ready to have a relationship would really like to have a dinner date etc. Although I miss it don't think I'm ready to be "intimate" as it were. Would seem too weird at the moment and would think of ex too much.

I'm not sure that dating sites are for me and all my friends are happily married ( I think).

But it has been suggested I try a dinner dating service, just a place to meet people for more social event than actual date and if you meet someone you like welll....

The worlds your lobstr as arfur daly would say.

Having been with my H since I was 18 (22 years!!) I cant imagine being close to anyone else..... it seems bizarrre. However, I do think I need a bit of a daliance (as my mum would have called it!) to remind me that he is not the only fish in the sea and that I am not over the hill at 40!! Every ego needs a boost every now and again.

I agree though, where the hell do you start!!! Wikidating perhaps????

OMG don't go there Jessie....

I do hope your not over the hill at 40 'cause that would make me over Everest at 53.
I have had 2 dates following my 36yr relationship.
The first a really nice bloke. Not the man of my dreams and he knows it but good company and great for a dinner date.
The second well he could have been ! But I'm just looking for good company it's to soon for me but good to know there are possibilities out there even when you over a very big mountain not just a 40 year old hill !!!!!!
