Did you ever get the number of the guy that was tending bar one night in Omaha? I think he was a manager but was covering that shift or something like that.
Oooh, forgot about him! May have to go there for dinner tomorrow night...
Im still standin better than I ever did looking like a true survivor feeling like a little kid Im still standin after all this time and Im picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind..
I'm a couple years out from being ready to take the plunge and actually date... but I did actually log on to match.com and look around last night. Scary stuff... dating has changed a lot in the last 25 years!

I think the thing is you get the same people at all of these sites. They sign up for 3 or 4 and you keep seeing the same people over and over. I am not paying for any of them anymore and I think I am going the good old fashioned way.

Yeah, I am going to have to "Do something different" bc it isn't working for me! I know, I have a date for next week but still we don't really have anything in common. And I checked out okcupid just now and the very first profile was "cockmaster" who was into "steamy hookups". Ummmmmmmmm....no. Plus his pic was a guy in a bandana w/eyeliner a la Brett Michaels...yuck!
No Massage, dang! Shouldn't wait until the day of to plan it out...
OK so time to go, do my run and go to a few graduation parties. Not sure I am going to meet someone special a)on my treadmill or b)at a graduation party. But I am going to live my life and you never know what may happen.
I'm just guessing, but the best way is probably to cast a wide net. Do lots of different stuff so you are meeting new people all the time.
That's just a theory. It hasn't actually worked for me. In the past, all of my serious relationships except for one were people I met through friends.
So far in the past year I've met one interesting woman through a friend. I met another at a bar, which kind of has become my hangout when I do go out. She is a TV reporter who recognized me. And this church singles group has someone who is very interesting.
I haven't actually worked up the courage to ask any of them out. I'm kind of hiding behind the fact I'm still married, although I doubt that would slow STBXW at all.
I've been paying for Match as well. I guess I won't give up on that until after the D. Right now, being separated hasn't helped me there.
