[quote=Anonymous]OP!  I try to not bombard DCUM with all of my thoughts and some days I just walk away from the keyboard knowing someone else is going to come along and post what I'm feeling.  Thank you!

I've been separated for 8 months.   I jumped right back into dating, too.  I have that Jerry Maguire itch.  There are several threads about online dating in the past few months, and the theme is that you do it, but you take breaks often, because it's exhausting, and you have to go on a lot of first dates to find even someone quality to date for a short while.  I will meet up with a couple of guys, have a really bad and draining experience, and close down my profile and regroup for a month or so (until I get lonely).

I say put yourself out there, because there's a lot of trial and error if you haven't been doing online dating in it's current form.  What you say in your profile attracts different kinds of guys.   I picked wrong in my marriage and stayed in a previous LTR when I shouldn't have.  So, I'm using these experience to learn how to pick dates well and pick a long term partner well.  I am seeing red flags earlier and I am not getting wrapped up in relationships that aren't good for me.

I hope by the time my divorce is final that I've learned enough about myself and about men/dating that I can start to look for my next long term relationship and make it a wonderful one.[/quote]
