Posts Tagged ‘single parent alone’

I was driving north on 101 here near San Francisco recently on a Wednesday morning commute when I heard the DJs on the radio talking about some poor lady who was recently divorced who had been on her first date on Saturday night after being divorced for two years.
It sounded like a miserable experience for her.

I know that I have had my share of “bad dates” since I have re-entered the dating world!  Here are some tips that I have figured out:

  1. Don’t talk about the ex.
  2. Don’t talk about the reason why you divorced.
  3. Manners count!
  4. Take your time….there is no timetable to find the right person.
  5. Don’t limit yourself, look outside your circle for that special person.
  6. Let your friends know that you are looking and available.  They might know someone perfect for you!
  7. Make sure you are ready to date.  Be patient with yourself and take care of yourself both physically and emotionally.

If you follow these tips you will do just fine.
