If you have been out of the dating game for over 10 years how do you go about dating again? How do you deal with the possibility of rejection?

From your other questions, I would say you have more than enough going on in your life. No hurry for the dating.
Work on building a network of friends, getting some closure from your last relationship, finding true interests, and when you know who you are and what you are looking for, there will be no need to worry about rejection.

Oh my God, when the word got out I was getting a divorce and divorced, I am not kidding, men became like hunters. I had one guy ask me if he could satisfy my need. One nite, I fell asleep reading and woke up to find a man in my bedroom. He said he knew I hadnt had sex for a long time and said pretty much how about it. I had a guy stop by my house and ask me out for a drink in the middle of the day, he said he noticed my lean long legs and had to stop. When the word gets out your single. Lock your doors and be picky. You will not be the rejected, and probably will end up being the rejector.
Good luck and have a great time.

i know someone who is thirty years old and never been on a date! the fear of rejection can cause you to miss out on something new and exciting, my advice is go on a date be your self and if you are turn down try again nothing beat a try. if you like i could set you up with my friend has you both are in the same position. but tge twist is you'll have to come to Jamaica. but i'll guarantee you'll have no regrets. if interested e-mail me at mrslaw_rence@yahoo.com.

I think that if you have to get used to it, then you probally are not ready to date yet. I think when you meet someone you will just click with them and the fear of being rejected will go away and you will be ready to explore the possibilities of getting to know them and look to that with happiness instead of uncomfortable feelings.

The only thing that i recommend for you is to start going to the bars, there is always a lot of out going people out there. and don't worry about rejection every one has to go thru them. Think about if you were to talk to five men one out of four will respond back to you, and always maintain a positive attitude towards your self. and good luck....

when ever you feel good about yourself, and maybe do a date set up by one of your friends but a double date.

Rejection is a hard one. But you don't dive in and try it you will never know.
