In the approximately 16 years of my dating life, I have had 6 long term relationships and have been engaged once. The relationships have lasted between 6 months and 4 years. When I see that in writing, it seems like I've had a decent run but it sure feels like I've been single and alone for most of my life. My last relationship ended almost 2 years ago when I found him cheating on me. I was all sorts of livid and hurt and it seems that it's taken me almost this long to get over it. Am I over it? Do you ever really get over a rug pull like this? I think I need to get into another relationship before I can fully answer that. Another relationship...how do I find that?
I am a self-employed gal who works mostly at home and with kids at their homes. Days can go by where my only company is my own, the checkout person at the grocery store and teenagers. I spend my mornings working out at a ladies only gym and I have two adorable cats. Not a lot of room to meet men, huh? Oh, and did I mention that a good chunk of my friends are gay men - I live in the gay part of town which I LOVE but doesn't really open it up to meet eligible men at the bank on the corner. So, what do I do?
This seems to be the question of my life right now - where do you meet a nice, single man when you're a thirty-something gal?
