I've noticed a lot of new faces so I thought I'd do an "intro" post.

Hi, guys... I've been out of town so I missed this but I love when intro time rolls around so anyway...

Name & age (if you want to disclose it): Lesley, 26

Location: Colorado

How long have you been single? about a year and a half

Are you currently trying to date or are you doing the "just be single thing" for a while? I've never really "tried" to date. Hmmm, maybe that's the problem. Whatever comes along, comes along.

If you're dating, how's it going? Swell.

What are some things you like to do in your free time? Run, travel, read, write, hang with my friends, hang with my dog, etc.

Just want to say a quick Happy Birthday to TallGirl!!

Name & age: no name, 28

Location: Baltimore, MD

How long have you been single? 18 months

Are you currently trying to date or are you doing the "just be single thing" for a while?
Would love to be seriously dating but I've grown tired of chasing men or trying to convince them of my worth so I'm letting them initiate. So a sparse date here and there.

If you're dating, how's it going?
Uneventful. I speed dated all through last year and ended up bruised, shaken, rejected and hurt several times. I'm discouraged, ambivalent and not so optimistic.

What are some things you like to do in your free time?

I'm finishing a master's, putting ideas together for a scrrenplay, into home improvement, fitness, love dancing, concerts, plays, shows, traveling, other creative writing and cooking.

Name & age: Just call me "icuryy" & I'm 24 :)

Location: Dallas, TX

How long have you been single? 1 month (even though my last LTR officially ended in October - complicated stories)

Are you currently trying to date or are you doing the "just be single thing" for a while? Both (enjoying and learning a lot about what I want in my next relationship but dating cautiously at the same time - have my profile up on Match and have been talking to a few decent men)

If you're dating, how's it going? Not "seriously" dating but having talked to a few nice men on Match and met one in person - very nice man even though I'm not physically attracted to him (yet...)

What are some things you like to do in your free time? I don't get to have too much free time lately but I enjoy reading, surfing the internet (hence here I am :), creating web sites, painting, doing crafts, watching TV, going to the movies etc... I'm also a Girl Scout leader, so do those meetings count as free-time activities? :~p

My name is Barb and I'm 30. I live in San Diego and my last serious relationship ended last July. I'm currently going on dates here and there and am seeing someone casually who's in the navy but currently on a 6 month deployment and won't be back for about 3.5 months. In the amount of time that I've been pretty much single and dating on and off since last July, I've enjoyed my freetime a lot. It does get lonely sometimes but I have done more work on myself and done a lot of healing in that amount of time and feel like a brand new me now. Nice to meet everyone!
