This particular problem is not relegated to any gender, sexual orientation or age group. Cowards in the dating world are sadly universal. I would bet that even prehistoric men and women scratched their heads over this dating archetype. What is a coward? A person who asks someone out on a date, only to then: Cancel last-minute Stand-up […]
A friend suggested I write this post, when I mentioned to her some of the things people have said to me post-split. It’s been three and a half years since my divorce but the hits keep coming! So I asked some of my divorced Facebook friends to tell me some of the worst comments they […]

Since my divorce, I can’t seem to do anything right when it comes to dating. I try to hard, I don’t try hard enough, I go out too much I stay inside my apartment for days on end, it doesn’t seem to matter. I have read multiple books on dating, even ones on male […]

So since I started this blog I have gotten amazing email from people all over the country and people all over the world about their own personal struggles of living a post-divorce life.
