I very much am in this head space right now. If I am enjoying someone, I will continue. No expectations, no labels. If it's meant to head toward love, then great! If not, I hope I have grown from the experience and can bring that growth forward to something new with someone else.

If an attraction is there, then any line would work I guess. Cheezy or not! 😁

Trying, these feelings are so confusing to understand. We want so much for them to share and see and be a part of who we are now. How we've grown and changed and opened our minds and hearts to new things. Yet, if they were still here, would we be these new people? Would we be the same as we were before? Or, would we be an entirely different person than we are now or were then? Big hugs and congratulations on your new adventure! Enjoy and celebrate the new you!

Haven't been on line much these days but I still have a giggle for you all. I had been chatting with someone in January and all seemed great until he went poof! He tried to start up again in March. I didn't give him the chance. He couldn't remember my name! Then this exchange this week on the dating site.... Him - I want you... It's XXX... you still have my number? Me- Seriously XXX? You had your chance and blew it! You probably still can't remember my name! Him- really... I don't think we spoke... Me- If we didn't speak, how could I have your number? Him- ok...so text me then...really like you.. Where is the face palm emoji? Here is my reply back.... I wish you could hear me laughing! I have an awesome laugh. Too bad you can't remember it and that you will never hear it again. 😁

Once you start you realize just how much you missed it and you can't get enough! At least in my experience.

I wonder if any of these actually work on anyone? 😁

This is not a discussion about on line dating or on line dating sites. It is a discussion about traveling alone. This meetup group posted is just that and for women only. Many meetup groups have annual fees associated with them and this one seems to give you some perks for your fee. Please don't make comments unless you read carefully what the discussion and topic is about.

Because you just can't make this stuff up.....direct cut and paste from my messages.... HELLO DEAR , HAS ANYONE EVER TOLD YOU THAT YOUR BEAUTIFUL AND GORGEOUS LOOK CAN MAKE A MAN FALL FOR YOU , BECAUSE I JUST FELL AND SCRAPPED MY LEGS , DO YOU HAVE A BANDAGE , LOL .

These are funny! 😊

I love this philosophy - it's perfect! Good luck - Mike Exactly!

Sound great so far Virgo! Good luck!

Needytoo, I'm sorry you have to deal with all this, and then that idiot and his ridiculous response...Geez! You are resilient....you are strong. Don't ever forget that!

I've had a crazy emotional few days.... Moved my oldest to university yesterday, younger 2 started middle school today and today would have been my 24th anniversary. Sadiversary in a week too. While at the grocery store this morning, keeping quietly to myself, I was approached by a gentleman. He looks right at me and says.... "You have beautiful feet!" I didn't know what to say and just thanked him and turned into the next aisle. I tried so hard to keep a straight face but it was so hard! My pedi wasn't even current and really needs a refresh! I got a much needed chuckle, that is for sure! What are the craziest lines used on you?

Love this Klim!

I'm sorry MrsDan.... I feel it too. My wedding anniversary is in a few days, and his accident was a few days after that. Add to that moving my oldest away to university on Monday and....well.......sigh.....

I hope everything is OK Needytoo. Sending you hugs. I have always wanted to try speed dating but never did. The one time I was booked to go, I ended up cancelling when someone I had just met felt threatened. Yes, that was a stupid move and my first sign that he was psycho! Enjoy it and let is know how it goes!

Oh boy SunshineFL.....Don't hog this guy all for yourself now!

Here is one from last month... Him- Has it been a while Me- Seriously? Not long enough! Him- Dam your lucky (his spelling) Him- You do have nice legs I really need a face palm emoji!

Thank you so much for contacting me again after your quiet spell. I so appreciate it as you have now CONVINCED me why I should NOT date you!

I am so, so, sorry. I have no words for you that could possibly help. Just know you are all in my thoughts. I too was induced to delivery a still born baby with my very first pregnancy. I would never wish that experience for anyone. My heart breaks that your daughter had to go through that.

In terms of questions, I really don't have a routine or list I go through with new people. I find it best to just be myself and go with the natural flow of the conversation and let them be themselves. If it flows naturally, it works for me. If they are psycho, they will soon show their true colours! 😁

SunshineFL, We gravitate to thinking the best of people and assume they are being honest and genuine. It's pretty sad when we have to start wondering about someone's motives if they seem too nice or too interested. But we can't change who we are. We can't get jaded. The real deal is out there. It may take some time for them to find their way to us, but I trust that they will. Is this too PolyAnna thinking? Maybe. In the meantime, enjoy what comes, have fun, flirt, whatever.... Do what makes you smile. We all know, life is too short.

Oh boy klim! I've had the nose guy too! And my nose is not small and cute. I gave credit to my Greek parents! 😂

I'm very sorry Mike. I know how much it truly hurts to go through this after our initial loss. I agree with CW and the no contact advice. She may have been giving you a story about her feelings and reasons or it could have been the real truth. It really doesn't matter in the end. You are hurting either way. You think that letter can't cause any more harm but you may be wrong. It can cause a lot more pain, on both sides, depending on what was said. You have learned you can open your heart again, and that is a good thing. She had a purpose in entering your life, for whatever time that was. Take your time to heal, and you will. I know it's hard to see that but you will.
