So its still odd to write this sentence, BUT 6 days before my birthday of last year I signed my divorce papers, while the court has not complete the process of filing, I am still trying to figure out how to get back out into the dating world. I have not been on a date, with a new person to be clear, in about 13 years.
On top of that I am an old school guy prefer to just ask a person face to face that you meet somewhere. In the modern age it seems that's an oddity and I have no idea how to meld the both the modern and the classic.
With that comes dating profiles online and as a few folk have told me at work is that from a distance and without talking to me I am a scary fellow. I do not think of myself in this manner, but it is something to consider when making a profile, I guess. I consider myself personable and pleasant to talk with, and feedback tells me so, but this is hard to convey in an online profile. And as a brief description Im 6ft tall broad shouldered bearded man, and mostly rock Tshirt and jeans, this seems to make folk a tad nervous.
All of that to say Im figuring stuff out. It is also the first time in my life that I have lived alone and that has been a journey. An odd realization to have at 43. I have lived alone a whole year and man do I hate it LOL. As a mexican my life had always been full of food family and friends. They go together like rice and soy sauce. (For me at least) Most of my friends are married with kids so we dont hang out as much as in the past which I am so happy for them, but my need for friends does get the better of me sometimes, and it leads to sadness and depression, which is a massive struggle these days. I do keep in contact with my friends worry not they just have different priorities these days.
ANYWAY, thats me rant/emotional dump. Hope anyone who reads this has a blessed and lovely YEAR with much happiness and good friends
Sending good vibes,
Roachy <3
