If I think about it, I've less experience with dating than my own sons. I not only married relatively young, but married a cute girl I'd met at night school when 19. I hadn't really dated much before than - went out with groups of friends, and really had only one relationship prior to then.

Oh, life's ideals don't always pan out. By my late 30s (and 3 sons later) ' we went our separate ways. I recall being emotionally "shell shocked" for a couple of years. When I finally crawled out of my cave (stated dating). I soon met someone else; and try as I might not to get too involved - Well, we ended up being together almost 10 (very good & not so good) years together. Life’s usual joys, grief and mundane ensued.


Now a few years of off fifty, I really can’t imagine seeking again to grow old with someone. My sons are growing into good men. I’ve some good friends, usual dysfunctional family. Interesting job (child protection). Still fit and not too mad (depression). Get out, travel some. I enjoy the company of charming women.


But while meeting new folk is fun, it does take a bit effort. I tend to lose interest in the dating regime. One former partner suggested I “fall” for the first pretty face that treats me nice. Maybe that as good a criteria as any. But I’ll never get much experience at dating. I guess that’s one of the reasons I like EH discussion board. See what I’m supposed to do, mistakes to avoid.

And there are some funny and wonderful tale out there.

Keep writting, please.
