[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I found your posts very dear and honest and open.  And very refreshing.  Life is 5% stuff that happens, and, 95% how you react to it.  Or something like that.  
It seems like you have already succeeded on the 95%!  So already you have an A grade!  Put yourself out there.  Yup, there are some jerks(but there were jerks out there when you were a teenager, right?) Take things at your own pace. Even if Price Charming rides in, I am sure your daughter will always be your main priority. 
Cheers to you!!![/quote]

That's very kind PP, thank you!

[quote=Anonymous]OP, I am very similar to you.  I am 45, was widowed about 5 years ago.  I have been dating a very nice man who I met on match.  It was tough for me to get out there and I took my time so my child and I could heal.  I took it very slow and was very picky about who I met.  I will say that I met  a number of nice people...I think just go into it with caution and be prepared to screen out a lot of people.  Good luck to you!  [/quote]

Very encouraging to hear from someone who's been there (as well as PP above who was widowed at 34) ... thank you both. It is a long road, nice to know others have spent as much time recovering and managed to move on.[/quote]
