I've got my first not-date since the divorce!

There this cute woman who works in the same building as me with whom I've been chatting with over the last couple of weeks. Like me, she's recently divorced, although hers seems to have been much uglier than mine (she used the term 'hideous') mostly because there were kids involved. Anyway, my employees heard me talking about how I found her cute and fun to talk with, so they took it upon themselves to ask her to lunch for me. Gee, thanks, ladies. Well, she says she's nowhere near ready for a new relationship, and frankly, neither am I, and we do like each other, so we're going to just have a casual friendly lunch, and take things extremely slowly.

 

Hey, its a start.

That's awesome. Have fun!

Get the chicken, I hear it is good. lol

 

Seriously though, I hope you have a good time.

do you think talking about your divorce is healthy at the start of a could-be relationship? i dont' know, maybe its therapeutic for you and her.

 

good luck with it anyway!

I don't know. I haven't been on a date or not-date in almost 10 years. I'm hoping just not to drip sauce on my shirt.
