But heck-a-doodle-doo, there MAY be something to the online dating afterall. Sign of the times with today's technological capabilities. Just a modern version of meeting the "old fashion way" in some aspects. Maybe stick to the more detailed sites (y'know, the ones that provide thorough peronality/character/picture/goals information versus a "men seeking women 15 words or less" column). By the way, I met my hubby at a bar and been married and more in love now for more than 10 years. Mentioning this to show that whatever others say is "taboo" or "shouldn't do" isn't necessarily the case. Go with your gut and then let your heart and mind decide from there. Love ya!

Definitely give online dating a try. It does wonders for curing loneliness and boredom, even if you haven't made a successful "match". You set up a basic about-you profile, and then wait for the avalanche of emails to pour in. There's no commitment, you can respond to whomever sounds interesting, and even if you don't find someone worthy of dating, you may find some good friends or at least share some interesting philosophical email discussions. My roommate talked me (I was pretty reluctant) into giving it a try eight years ago, and I had a few okay dates, a few awkward ones, then I met my husband; we've been inseparable since the first date. By the way, I really enjoy your blog. I'm still pretty new to motherhood (my son is 16 months old), but I've been enjoying your perspective and struggles for a few months now. I also really respect the relationship you have with your daughter. Keep blogging! I have to agree with most of the comments above. Definitely give online dating a try.

It's complicated. We met at a party and didn't talk to each other the whole time. Then three months later, I commented on pictures of the party that he had posted on Myspace (which I don't even use anymore). That simple online conversation started our whole relationship. A year and a half later, here we are! As for actual online fishing, I would suggest it. I've met a lot of great people through online dating. Not much I can add to all of the comments above me. Just be careful and choosy :) .-= Meghan´s last blog ..<a href="http://singsthemagpie.blogspot.com/2009/08/withdrawal.html" rel="nofollow">Withdrawal</a> =-.
