    I need to find some kindred souls to at least chat with online. My wife of 10 years left me 2 months ago. I am very lonely but the idea of dating terrifys me, besides, are there any women out there who would want a 51 year old "hippie" who hardly has 2 nickles to rub together? I am a kind, smart, funny, and not bad looking guy who has never intentionally hurt another living being. I think I am hip with a lot of love to give. Please tell me there is a chance for me to love again.

    Well General, of course there is.
    I am not available, but if I was, I would certainly check you out.

    I got married 2 years ago. At age 45..my sweetie was 57.

    This is a new chapter in your life, and my advise would be to get involved in something....not a dating service, but something where you could meet like minded people and just make some friends to have a good time with.

    Alot of people go to bars to meet someone and end up with more problems that they started with.

    Even though you may not have 2 nickels , there are things to get involved in...volunteer at something....call your local hospital and ask what you could do to help out...
    Do you know a particular skill to teach?? If so call the community collages and see if they could use your knowledge...
    Have something you've always wanted to learn?? Take a class..how about rug hooking?? Or writing?? There are classes for not much money.
    Are you a good reader?? Call the newspaper and see if they could use some help. Small local papers use volunteers....and it could turn into a side job, where you could meet all kinds of people. I worked for a small paper for a few years and had a blast...met ALL kinds of great people.

    Please watch out for online romances...there are alot of great people online, but also alot of bullshit. What I'm really saying is watch out for that rebound syndrome...just get into your new groove, take stock of things that were screwy in your marriage, work on yourself, and don't try so hard.
    Things will happen as they should.

    Hang out with us, there are some great friends here, and you may meet someone here who would be great for you...or at least make some cool friends.

    Sending you good vibes...
    teepi
