Thoughts on how to be single again in your thirties after a very long marriage, four kids and a PHD. Someone hand me a rule book I think I need one!
Or how to get your mojo back:)

Once I got semi used to being single, and over the Steve debacle I decided to try a few different things. I'm a sociologist so I am always up for trying new things particularly from a cultural dating level...and hey you never know. SO...I placed a personal ad...I know I know...never thought I'd do it either but hey. Seven hundred and forty nine responses. Insane. I would have been here till 2020 trying to get through them all. Got some very interesting replies...and made a very good friend. Some of the responses still make me laugh..the guy who forgot to tell me he had a glass eye...that was a very interesting coffee...or the one who left me standing at the bar of the pub while he went to the loo...and never returned. I got a text message later that said "sorry...no chemistry" hmph I should have replied "sorry...no fucking manners!!"

And internet dating...oh boy. The new frontier. If ever you are in need of some interesting feedback in your life....particularly if you're female post a profile on the net. its a really good way to meet people you would never in a million years meet elsewhere...I mean really where am I supposed to meet someone? On the bus on my way to work? And trust me...being an academic...I won't date other academics we'd either bore each other to death or get down in some bizarre research competition.
But more on all that later....
