[quote=Anonymous]I am just returning to the dating world after a divorce and wonder if anyone has advice for how to find potential dates when privacy is very important. Background: I'm a woman in her early forties; kids almost ready to head out to college; looking for men 40s to early 60s. Online dating seems like an obvious way to meet new people, but I am very private and a not comfortable with having my photo out there for anyone to see.

It's not just that I am generically paranoid: I have a high-profile and sometimes controversial job (the kind that generates publicity and a lot of hate mail under the best of circumstances). Though I am very far from "famous," I am just recognizable enough inside certain DC circles to feel really uncomfortable having my picture and profile up on Match or whatever.

Are there any internet matching services that reserve photo exchanges for after a period in which you have exchanged emails for a while? Or old-fashioned "matchmaker" services that set you up on "blind" dates with potential matches? Or, failing that, any suggestions of how to meet single men offline? (But not in bars or something. Too old for that!).

Advice welcome!
