  • @Lena809 Sorry you were conned by a jerk. I have no dating stories/hints/tips but I hope you find the right person for you. We all deserve to love and be loved. Are you happy being single though?

  • I’m happy to be out of that terrible relationship but I feel lonely ?

  • Sorry, you feel lonely it is hard I understand. Sometimes you just want that 1 person there to share with or have them look after you when you need it huh I know it isn't the same but do you have

Are you happy being single though? I always find people meet nicer partners when they are happy in their own company. But this can be hard if you feel lonely. Anyway good luck :)

I know it isn't the same but do you have a good friend and family network to ease it a little bit?

Hi Mike,

thank you! I’m feeling great about how I look but due to my breakup from the man I was with for 7 years has me still emotional. I had to let him go due to him threatening to kill me and bury me in my backyard. It was a real relationship to me but I know now he was a con-artist. So rough but I need to move forward

I separated feburary of 2020 and started a new relationship a month after. Everything has been great besides my beau's ex girlfriend has been harassing and stalking me . I already got the police involved. We just dont know what anybody is capable of nowadays. Like that creepy saying , if I cant have him no one can kind of thing. I just hope and pray that everything goes well .

I'm kind of in the same boat. My marriage feels over I've tried a million things for it to work but I'm the only one trying. He was with me at the hospital for about 30 mins the day of my surgery and that's it. My daughter had to care for me. I wish I could find someone who truly appreciated me and truly cared and showed it! I guess people just change.... :(

Started the journey Married, drifted apart eventually, not sure how I would feel dating now. I lost so much weight and felt fat all my life, that I still see my self that way. My body may look ok with clothes, but the shame of extra skin makes me feel I ruined my body and am somehow deformed. Don't get me wrong though, I am happy with my results, and it could of been worse, I shouldnt complain.

Thinking of someone accepting me would be my biggest fear I think.
