Dating DOES suck - and I hate to be so Debbie Downer about it. Unfortunately, especially if you are divorced, you're not willing to "settle" if you don't find that diamond in the rough. I know my dating debacles are as much my fault as they are the guy's - he probably has less of a chance upon meeting me than he did before he met me, if that makes sense. You'd think a girl like me would be a catch - I don't necessarily want to get married, I don't care about your money or lack thereof, I love football and I drink beer. What more could a guy want? (Kidding here - know that will leave me open for LOTS of criticism.)
The upside is, I've been single for 9 years, save for a match.com relationship that lasted four years and a Kim Kardashian timeline of a marriage. I'm used to it, it has its perks, and I find myself just going out to "meet people" rather than looking for that man of my dreams. I think that's the best way to look at it. You never know - I might meet that guy in the checkout line at Kroger (probably not, given how I look when I go to Kroger.) Best of luck to you!
