Ya, we're gonna need to hear more of this story!

The weird/funny/twisted part of me and this potential Europe trip is I'd actually like to go as a totally single guy. I want to just do whatever I want without worrying about the morarity of having a W (in any capacity) back at home... If you catch my drift.

And the dating question is just when it would be "okay" to start actively persuing other women for a more than friends relationship. This could include online dating or getting set up on dates with friends of friends. I don't feel ready yet, and may not until/if D is final, was just putting it out there.


BEN-so is this^^^ your status now? Too much work to bother?
Never saw the follow up posts - soooo I wondered...

I went to Europe as a single woman. Years later I went as a happily m woman. The latter was better...the single woman travelling in Europe is often like a Penthouse Forum article

MEANING it's just a fantasy...not reality,
I had fun and a fling or two, or three...

But that means a lot of time alone at night too and a lot of flings that were nothing special..although in such lovely areas...

and sometimes in a beautiful historic place, a "date" can say the stupidest things b/c hey, they don't "get" you b/c how can they? They don't know you.

Good luck Ben-hope at least you learned something so you aren't in the same boat in 3 years
