[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Widow here, 47 with 2 tweens. It’s been 2 years and I’m finally starting to think about dating again, but honestly not sure if that’s even realistic at this point.

I’ve got a good career, lots of friends, hobbies, no debt, about $1M net worth. I’m Black, size 8, pretty fit but could lose a few. I feel like I have my life together but I don’t know what dating even looks like for someone like me. My late husband was white but I’m open to all races. I tried bumble for a few weeks but no one seemed genuine.

Do men my age even date widows with kids still at home?  Would love to know what’s realistic![/quote]

You're most likely looking at divorced men with kids. There are plenty of them in the DMV. I would try blind dates with friends of friends or colleagues before doing OLD.[/quote]

OP, wouldn't you be happier not dating at all than dating a divorced man with kids?  You sound like you are in a great place, and your kids are growing up fast.  Could you wait until they leave the house and then restrict your dating pool to other empty nesters or men with no kids?  You will have more peace, stability, and happiness if you just categorically avoid dating divorced men with kids at home. [/quote]
