I haven’t been on here in a while and I decided to read your thread. Divorce is difficult (it’s been almost 7 years and I still struggle with calling myself divorced or a single mom. I feel like a cliche, but I also act like one on occasion). I’m sure you struggle with how this affects your D. My story with my ex h is quite interesting as well, but that’s not the time for that. You’ve received some great advice and this is a fantastic community.
I’ve heard many horror stories with OLD, however, that was not my experience. I met many fun, good people-just nothing long term resulted. I also don’t attach many expectations to OLD other than I’ll go and have a good time. And that has worked well for me. I think perspective is key with dating in general. Not sure I buy the numbers game theory, and meeting people organically can be a struggle as well.
I only went on one coffee date but I hear many say those generally never seem to vibe. I did meet many funny, interesting people so I’m grateful for that. Hang in there :-)
