I'm completely divorced. I'm on Match, so it says in my profile that I have three kids who live with me.
I'm a people person, so to the extent that dating is about getting to know new people and exploring the area, I'm completely ready. The idea of sex is kind of terrifying, but I don't think waiting around will make that any better considering what the fear is about, so I'll just see how things work out. I do get slightly freaked out when guys want to share phone numbers but feeling the fear and doing it anyway seems to be good for me.
I can not believe how many people have turned out of the woodwork to respond to my profile. I did have a phone chat with one guy on Saturday but that was clearly not going to work so I sent him an email yesterday. It was very freeing to be open about saying that we weren't a match.
It is amazing to me how little I care about Mr. Fantastic now that I have other places to turn my attention. It's not like I want him back. When things were tough it was easy to just indulge in being angry with him for making my life harder. Now they seem to be on an upswing -- I have a job interview this afternoon, there are people interested in me on Match, a friend is angling to introduce me to someone she knows personally, the things about my house that were freaking me out before I got fired are resolving, and although I'm not super thrilled with my financial situation at least I know that's going to be improving soon as well. My frustrations are partly relieved and have I other places to put my attention that are a lot more positive, and so I can let go of some of that anger I was harboring against him. My opinion of him hasn't improved; just my interest in reacting to his choices.
With regards to tall guys -- I'm talking to one who's 6'7" at the moment...
