Figured something out today. life sucks! I joined to find someone near by to talk to and maybe one day more PROBLEM... Everyone I have met lives in another country and worse I can't say anything about my family cause I wouldn't know where to start. I've been separated for over 10 months. This is my first venture out. I can't do the bar scene or have freedom to date coventionally. My daughter has brain cancer. stage 3 and she is going thru chemo. I don't feal sorry for myself!!! Admittingly I'm lonely. I just need to know if anyone thinks someone is out there that could look past the drama to even start a friendship even if it didn't become more. I'm not a one night stand person.I have morals and values. I was married and been with the same and only man for 18 years. My daughter is teaching me life's too short. Is there anyone out there that has any advice. if not a prayer would go a long way. just hoping I'm not alone. I would love to hear from others about finding someone while their life wad upside down. people can be honest if they think this is a waste of time.

These things online take time and patience. I don't have any advice to give for what you are going through, It sounds terrible. However I can assure you that I will say a prayer for your daughter . Maybe you need to put dating on the back burner until this medical issue has been addressed. Either way God bless you and your Daughter and remember never give up hope.

Nothing is a waste of time if you put the effort into it.If you want to make friend then be more active here in the forums. I never join a site like this with the expectation of actually meeting someone in real life because most of the people I talk to on the internet aren't even in the same time zone. But this is a way to make friends and have some fun. It can be a place to get away from stress. But with the things you're going through just try not to get to much into this or things will get really bad and you won't be as aware of it. I hope you and your family do ok considering what's going on.

Thanks for the prayers. I'm not searching for a date in the coventional sense. I'll be dealing with this the rest of my life and my daughter's a blessing no matter what. My cousin thought I should at least plug myself in to recognize there is other life out there. I appreciate the words of wisdom. I'm glad I checked this out. I hope I can give some of my strength and joy of each moment to others. Thanks for the advice. Think I will look at this with a different goal in sight. God bless youwinking

I agree with Izzy! Join the forums and make friends. Flirt and have fun and just see what happens. I still think socializing in person with people is the best way to go but like you I understand that can be hard with caring for your family. I'm kind of in that situation. Lots of prayers and best wishes to you!
