[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve been divorced for over a year, and was separated for two years before that. I am completely “over” my ex and ready to start dating. I am looking for an LTR with the right person (also in their 50s).

I’ve been getting quizzed a lot about “where I am” and “what I’m looking for”. A lot of times when I’ve been chatting for a while and things seem to be going well, the temperature drops sharply when I say I’ve been divorced for “only” a year. I get it, they want to make sure I’m not still entangled with my ex. But what am I supposed to do, have a bunch of short-term flings before “they” decide I’m ready for an LTR? Am I only going to get dates with other “not divorced long enough” people?[/quote]

If asked what you are looking for respond you are looking to get out and meet people.

If asked where you are (DO NOT GIVE CAUSE OF DIVORCE, DO NOT SAY INFIDELITY), respond very simply.

Specifying LTR early on adds way too much pressure.  It reads clingly and desperate.   The right guy will want to be in a LTR with you.

Dating is meeting a lot of people.  Go out. Have a nice evening.
