Life goes on

Hi Lisa: How about starting with small steps. Like, going to places where singles go? Charity events, clubs, Museums, etc. Joining a group of something where your interests lie. Here goes another Lainy/Teddy story. I was single after 25 years with a LOSER, dated and had a nice social life for 8 years. Then a girlfriend and I started going to a restaurant/bar where they had live music and  older singles went. Bada bing, bada boom, after watching me for months, Teddy asked me to dance. We had 1 dance, and in walked a guy I was just starting to date. So that was that. I dated this guy for 9 months and T met a woman he dated for a year and then we both broke up. Now you have to understand that  during this time we would see each other all the time and were watching! About 4 months after both break-ups we re-met in August, had a first date in September, got engaged Xmas and married in July! Point of this is you never know! Other point is I had not dated for awhile when I met T as I had decided my own company was better than those I was meeting and therefore I became comfortable with myself which opened me up to T when we re met. So, Mama Lainy says, do look around but not so aggresively that you get upset over it. Be comfortable with yourself. Good luck!
