OK....I have already followed all the advice here. I am blown away because on the service I joined, at one point, was getting 25 to 30 emails a day. My G-d...there are a LOT of divorced woman out there. A LOT. It must be challenging, if not difficult, for a divorced woman in her 50s with 2 kids to find a new healthy R. Well, I'd better not exclude myself yet from that category.
My pix are all within 12 months. I made my profile humorous. Eg, I love to cook so I used my favorite line "dinner is ready when the smoke alarm goes off." LOL.
I've seen some hurtful posts by women in profiles: -"don't bother emailing me if you don't own a comb" (thank G-d I have a full head of hair" -"my kids are grown so don't bother emailing if yours aren't. I got rid of my baggage" -"you get ten points if you own a boat" -"don't expect to get a kiss or have your hand held on the first date." Wow....tough love I guess -"don't bother emailing if you are under 5'11." I made it by one inch. LOL.
Women ask a lot of similar questions: -what do you do? -how long are you divorced? -how long were you married?
And, of course, most of the women seem cirumspect, suspicious, etc. On the flip side, others have a great outlook on life.
Well...nearly 6 days without my kids coming up. It hurts.

Ugh.
