In 200 words, more or less.
I am a 29 year old divorcee (who cannot figure out how to include accents in her blog). I was on a dating frenzy during the months of December and January after having been married since I was 21. I have slowly and only recently narrowed down my relationship choices to one person, ironically the first person I went on a date with on the day my divorce was final. His name, for our purposes here, is Friendster Guy. He has many things in common with my X including name and many major upbringing things such as he is from NJ, an only child, and was raised catholic. He is nothing like my X in most all other ways. The biggest one being that he actually wants to spend time with me.
I also often mention High School Guy. He graduated with me but I did not meet him until 11 years post-graduation when his brother started working in my office. (The world is a very, very small place. Watch yourself.) High School Guy and I had a little fling but he has a commitment issue and I discovered having fun and hanging out now and then wasn't enough for me so we've decided on just friends.
This blog began as a place where I could regale the world with my new singlehood and either bitch about or celebrate my various adventures in dating. I must say, I did not have a single date I regret. I met some very nice men and I learned a whole lot about myself in the process. It ain't over yet of course. I'm not sure what turn this blog will take now that I find myself with someone starting to resemble a steady boyfriend. I'm still wondering how to bring up the blog to him. How would you feel if the person you had been dating had devoted multiple posts to your relationship? I think I'd be kind of annoyed. Hurt? I don't know. Since we met on-line I know he is internet savvy and down with the whole blogosphere but reading blogs and being the subject of posts are two very different things. I think I'll wait until we're a little more defined and my posts about our early relationship are a little further into the archives.
Ok that was closer to 400 words.
