With a Little Help From My Friends

So divorced eight (8?!?) years. Haven't seriously dated anyone for over a year. What do I know about dating? That's the question of the century. Guess what. I'm not going to answer that today.

Here's what's going on. I've asked my friends to consider their friends. Do they know anyone in my general age range, who is employed, who might possibly be interested in meeting me. I know that I'd like to meet someone who isn't fresh out of a relationship. I figure I've done that (dated someone who is working through his issues). It's not something I want to do again. Ouch!

Today I was told that I wasn't someones "type". I wasn't a little tiny woman and I was too smart for one particular man about whom I'd inquired (an acquaintance of a friend). OK...honestly? After awhile a girl just wants to throw in the towel and go back to the Internet (which I dabbled in BARELY for a couple of years). BUT that is no man's land as far as I'm concerned. So it stung a bit to hear this truth but darlings the truth is just that.

I'm just going to keep on being me. It's off to the bookstore and then working on my travel plans. If my friends know someone, awesome. If not, I'm going to change the name of this damned blog. :)
