Dating

Hi everyone. Dont know if any of you can help. I have had a bad few months with splitting up from my ex, i have been seeing someone else and that has ended, i just need someone who doesnt mess me about.
I have been on dating sites but cant seem to find anyone, can anyone give me some ideas on how to find mr right and where to find him? x

You'll find someone when the time is right. Probably when you are least expecting it. I'm not sure that you won't have better luck starting a new hobby/ social activity rather than looking specifically on dating sites. I know it's hard being single but it's important to be happy/ secure in yourself in order to be attractive to a potential partner.
Hope the diabetes control is stabilising now

In my experience you usually find the right person when you are not looking for them, rather than when you are. I met my DH when he came to collect the insurance premium from my parents .

After a traumatic relationship break up that involved mental and physical abuse I wondered how I would find somebody to be happy with. At around the same time I was asked to settle in this new guy at work. That was eleven years ago and we were friends for eighteen months....... we have now been dating for ten years and living together for nine years he is my soul mate

Maybe some time on your own would be a good idea, and like has been said sometimes whe you are looking nothing comes your way but then bang you could be in the street in a shop or anywhere and you click with someone when you least expect it Karen.

I met my wife on a blind date (arranged by my friend whos girlfriend had a sister with nothing to do) at the cinema (John Lennons 'How I won the war). Five years to the day of our first 'date' (Jan 13th 1968) we were married. Next Jan 13th will be our Forty-ith wedding anniversary. Hang in there He will turn up prob out of the blue.

Just take your time, be kind to yourself & don't rush...you don't need me to tell you relationships are not a cure for life's problems & if you are not in a good place emotionally, that's not necessarily good for a new relationship anyway. My dad rushed into various relationships after mum died, with fairly dire consequences for us all. He was trying to patch up the grief in his life with something along the lines of a 'cut & shut' family & surprise, surprise, things didn't work. Take some time out, love yourself, be kind to yourself & take the chance to concentrate on your health & well being. Like everyone else has suggested it can be in the most unexpected place that you find your other half - mine was when we were both volunteering for a youth organisation, & I'd just about given up on meeting mr-right-for-me. Value yourself enough to wait for the right person, who will love & value you as you deserve to be loved & valued (that's lots, btw 🙂). (((((hug)))))
