I am 32 and divorced, i have been divorced for about 4 months. my question is where to go to find a descent woman to date. i work and i have kids alot when i am off so i dont have many options. and the bar scene doesnt appeal much to me. i am kinda hesitant about dating but i really want to try to move on, i am a descent looking guy and i take good care of myself so i shouldnt have a problem, but for some reason i feel so shy after being married for so long. so any true feedback would be very helpful. also mayb a few pointers on how to act, what to say, etc...........

Start being really friendly where ever you go ... the grocery store, the mall, the park, the movies, the post office .... where ever and when ever .... !

Talk to strangers at the coffee shop, say hello to women on the street, smile and greet people more often.

Being a little bit more confident and out-going will start attracting more and more women ... make sure to have conversations about yourself or the woman you're talking to .. not your divorce, children, baggage, ex-wife ....etc .... let the women get to know you first before you bring your kids around too .... !

If you want your children to be part of your dating life ... then take them everywhere you go .. that way the type of women you attract will see your children first and appreciate the fact you can take care of them ... by your self ... and seeing a single dad with his kids at the park is such a sweet sight ... !

Start slow and take it from there .... it's not hard to find people to date ... it's hard finding the "right" ones to date ... !

Good Luck and welcome to the single world again ... !

You are young. Go out after work and who says the bar is the only place to find a girl? Lets just say the library is more your scene, go to the library and enjoy yourself, while there you talk to a girl who is in the library. She might be into the same scene as you. Don't give up if the first one doesn't go right. Don't be shy, just be honest first thing that you have children and are divorced and everything. Some girl will show up. Good luck!

I can answer that! In this day and age it is hard to meet people but it doesn't have to be! I was asked out at a gas station, grocery store, many times at work and then there is always your beloved friends and family that will set you up endlessly. I have an add on yahoo personals but had to hide it from the general public because I had a plethora of inappropriate emails. I think the best plan for any man is to ASK a girl out on location and to give her HIS phone number or casually mention you go to Barnes and Nobles every Tuesday night after work or you're at the coffee shop every Saturday morning. I think it's very attractive for a man to be genuinely friendly and confident.....even if he's faking it. Talk about light subjects for starters and never draw attention to how "she" looks. Say something like "I enjoyed talking to you, if you would ever like to talk I'm at the coffee shop on Saturdays". When you take the "date" word out of meeting people it's less pressure.

Keep your hands off unless she invades your personal space which is a hint for you to do some hands on.

Good luck and remember you're just rebounding right now so remember to wrap up for more intimate relations.

You've said it all. Just be yourself. Be honest, upfront. It is hard to get back into the swing of things after being in a long term relationship. Don't worry it will happen for you. Trust me, when you least expect it.

I don't think you need to put that additional pressure on you. It really is true- it happens when you are not looking. Take advantage of this time to get to know yourself and your kids more.
