Dating sucks, they should hand out purple heart medals or something, to us poor women that have date the cretins out there...I've had my heart stomped on and I was also trapped in a bad marriage for 4+ years. (I ended that marriage and got a divorce.) Then via my ex bf who is an ok guy, just didn't work out, I started cycling, joined a cycling forum, met a guy there that was going through a divorce and 11 months younger than me. I was 35 at the time, I had given up on ever having a family, kinda gave up on men, too...anyway, we started Skyping (he lives in Denver, I'm in Vancouver, BC.) On spring break I flew down there to meet him (I don't recommend doing this! I had met many of his cycling friends on facebook and whatnot so I knew he wasn't an axe murderer...) We hit it off, we went cycling, snowshoeing (one of my favourite things) we had chemistry (he kissed me in a parking lot the night I flew in, my heart skipped a few beats.)
He came here in late April, we cycled, did the 10km Sun Run together, saw some of the sights etc and to my extreme shock, I got knocked up. He is happy about the baby (probably less freaked out that I am about it) and he's coming here in two days to help me pack and move me down to Denver and we're getting married.
We met online in October, things have moved pretty fast, despite both of us trying to take it more slowly - life sometimes forces the issue!
My suggestion is, take up some fun hobby like photography, cycling, join a walking club...whatever works that has eligible men in it. I am not guaranteeing you will meet Mr. Right but it could happen, and having something in common helps.
