I’ve decided to take a break from dating for awhile. I’ve only had my heart broken once (by Tim, the first guy I met), but most of the rest of my experiences have boiled down to this: the men I’ve seen more than once all have some sort of lingering issue/drama with a previous relationship which basically makes them unavailable to me. I can only conclude based on my limited sample size that many men are using online dating as a way to feed their ego while they lick their wounds from their own latest heartbreak.
If anyone is actually reading this and would like to help me write a profile for when I’m ready to dive back in, I’d love to hear from you.

I can’t give you any profile advice (I’ve been married almost 35 years), but I can sympathize with you. I think you are absolutely right not to get involved with guys with entanglements, who needs it? It is hardly analagous, but that’s how I feel about community theater…I work fulltime and do theater for fun…and it had better be fun or I can’t waste my time. Dating should be fun and if it isn’t…hugs, K.
