Hard to say, NM. Someone who spends 90 minutes talking about their exgf isn't looking for a new relationship - they're looking for a shoulder to cry on, IMO.
Where do you look for guys in person?
By doing things you like to do, like going to museums, wine tastings, cooking classes, singles cruises, or by doing things GUYS like to do like sports bars, car shows, boat shows, etc.
Not that I'm an expert. I read it in an old book from the 80's called "How to Marry the Rich" by Ginie Polo Sayers.
After my father died, my mother told me, "The first time I married was for love. The second time would be for money."
Crass...or sage advice?
As Ginie pointed out in her book, "It's as easy to fall in love with a rich guy as a poor guy. And you tend to have more fun with someone who's not sweating his car payment." Later in the book she says, "Some people call me a gold digger. But we all have criteria for potential mates, whether it be education, politics, or religion. One of my criteria just happens to be money."
