The events of the past two years (which i wont get into) turned this vivacious, attractive and intelligent woman in her early 40s into a recluse of sorts. Now I am emerging from the sojourn and of course, my married friends are still married,my 'single' friends are still attached and the others.. well, lets say i have changed as a person as i am sure they have too..
So I want to meet new people.. i've been reading the posts on this site, ive looked at some of the dating sites.... none of which appeal to me because i am no longer very good at doing the 'networking' circuit nor attending soirees or 'getting together' in crowds. Also, it feels like people on the dating site have hidden agenda's, they dont seem to be able to accept you as a person, they come with fixed ideas of what you should look like,behave like, sound like.. and if you dont fit that category, you never hear from them again.
I would like to meet some nice people, mid 30s and above, and in small doses, just to talk, have a drink, they dont have to be men, they could be women, preferably single (sorry married ladies, no offence but as you might have noticed most of my friends are married and they dont have the time to hang out with me) or they could be men,.. well here clearly, they cant be married/attached or their wives/girlfriends might get worried!
It would be nice to meet someone who doesnt have any expectations, just hang out, chat, see a movie.. and its very important that that person isnt judgemental, doesnt sit there and form opinions..
I am not into the raving clubs and all that dancing and strutting.. sure, ist nice, its fun but its not something i can do every weekend or even once a month! everybody says join a dance class, join that class, join this class.. its seems like i have to join some class or club to meet people..
The company i work for is very small and yes, my colleagues are all attached as well!
I dont know, i just dont know... .. where do i start?
