I feel like I'm new to this whole dating thing.
I didn't date a ton when I was a young, awkward skateboarder kid (which wasn't as cool back in the 90's!) I married a girl who I chased but wouldn't date me all through high school. 8 years later she cheats on me, and now I'm fully divorced and newly single. And there's my life story, lol.

And believe it or not, we did the divorce peacefully, and are at least on friendly terms today. I suppose it helps that she felt guilty and basically left me everything. Which isn't to say we hang out... I'd actually probably kill the real estate agent who I essentially paid thousands of dollars in fees to sleep with wife, who she not only lives with but just married. True story!

But I'm here... I don't really drink, bars aren't my scene, never were... probably shouldn't jump right into a "waiting for Mr. Right" girl relationship, I'm thinking. But really haven't ever NOT been in one of those!
So I'm figuring out this whole "being single" thing.

Any tips? Haven't had many hits so far even on basic views of my profile.

Well... hello if you are out there!

Slow down babe. Don't get your feet wet yet. Take your time and make some friend's here first. This is a good bunch of ppl.

It's Wendy btw.

hi welcome to mingle

i'll take internet dating for 500$ alex

Oh, I've gotten my feet wet - on the outside world... and shouldn't have.
Dated a girl I worked with... dating a girl I met somewhere else... even dated a girl who was likewise divorced because her husband cheated on her.
It's been about a year.

Actually, the problem is I haven't just gotten my feet wet - I keep jumping right into the deep end!

so I SHOULD take your advice, yes!

Welcome to Mingle. lots of nice people on here

Enjoy being single hun. You got plenty of time to find that "special" someone. Have fun and post in the Forums so people will get to know you better. Good luck!

As I'm sure others will say, post in the forums, get to know people and have fun!

I am sure I'll enjoy being "single" as long as it doesn't mean being "alone".

I feel like there should be miles of territory in between those places - but I've never set foot on it yet!

I feel like Christopher Columbus searching for the fountain of youth... "it's out there! It must be!"

Welcome!
