I'm glad to read that you are a man who is not afraid to confront his feelings on issues like this.
As a man, it's hard to admit that you are so lonely. Yet, that's where many of us find ourselves, especially around the holidays.
If you're feeling uncomfortable going on a "date" then you already have identified that it's something that is not in keeping with your personal values.
That may change, depending on your circumstances.
But I think for many of us here who have gone through so much heartache, one of our mantras should be like the Medical Profession.
"First, Do No Harm."
We don't want to hurt others while we're trying to make ourselves feel better. We are learning to transcend our emotional state and focus on more important, long-term goals.
And being kind to others is at the top of my list, personally.
