Re: Back into the Dating Scene? - September 13th 2011, 02:12 PM

I know it's hard to jump back into the dating scene after being with someone, no matter how long you were together. But, you just need to put yourself out there, make sure they know you're available for possible dating and just be yourself. As you said, your personality could be subjective to the girl, and I think that happens to most guys and girls. But, that doesn't usually mean anything!

As for where, just try going to bars/clubs or hanging out at your favorite local spots.
Hey Shannon. (:

I'm not much of a party animal myself. I was last year and the year before, I suppose - but I've been kind of turned off from the whole clubbing and barring experience after a number of times things have gone down in my city; stories for another time. So, I think I would prefer someone whose into just relaxing and lazying around. I'm better in less personal situations to begin with, but when it comes down to it, I love to be personal.

I'm getting back in there now. I've had a few people tell me they have "friends" they want me to meet (that isn't meant to be bragging in any sense at all), but they want me to go clubbing or barring to meet them, and as stated before, it's something I want to avoid for now. I don't mind going to a bar for one or two drinks during the evening, but unlike my peers (especially in my area), I can't stand being outside of my own house after 10pm. Haha.

And yeah, I try to be as "normal" as possible as far as my personality goes, but I can tend to try to dominate people (not physically, of course - that's not in my nature), which seems to be very confronting to a lot of people.

But thank you for your opinions, much appreciated. (:
