Newly divorced: Would you attend an informal gathering on dating?

[Anonymous]

OP again. This would really be an intimate conversation with a woman who has done online dating for two years straight. I am an outgoing person and quite easy to talk to. It's free, you could get a little coffee at union market and then finish your day. Public space.

No. Because if I were newly divorced the last thing I would want to think about is how to get new penis in my life.

Get a hobby. Date yourself for awhile. Give yourself some room to grow without being partnered off with someone.

If you don’t want a relationship, go off and snowboard or something. This is a relationship forum.

Actually when you’re newly divorced pretty much all you think about is a new penis or vagina. You clearly haven’t been there. Divorce messes with your self esteem. And the new partner(s) really helps in healing. Better than therapy.

Maybe you’ll meet someone there. I’d go.

This sounds like one of those seminars where they hold you hostage until you buy something.

No. no. no. OP is thinking about hosting one of these. Looking for input/interest.

It's whatever OP decides it is.

Or did I get it wrong?

Yes, you are correct. I am not newly but have dated newly divorced, and other peole looking to enter the dating scene again. It would be an informal gathering of people just wanting to talk and maybe ask questions.

You would be surprised at how many men don't have decent photos. Or can't think of a cheaper place for a date other than a 100 dinner.

Then, no I wouldn’t do it

No way.

I think the people who might want that advice are not the same crowd who would see dating a lot of people for two years as a sign of success.

Nope. I’d be much more likely to go to a meetup.

This. Plus, there’s not one right way to date. Who appointed you the arbiter of proper dating etiquette, OP? What authority do you have?
