Hello Everyone!
I know how difficult the holidays can be for us single folks. That said, last year I hosted an "Orphan's Dinner" and had some lovely people around my table. This year, I had dinner with my boyfriend, his daughter and his in-laws. He's a widower and we've been dating seven months. It took me years to find myself and become the person I would want to date. Last January, I decided to dance more, smile more, and just live my life. Well...that's when he showed up at a meetup group. I had no luck online, but I know it works for many. Don't rule anything out. Live life and do the things you enjoy and all the rest will fall into place. I remember the struggle of the holidays, so find a way to be of service. Others need you and will appreciate anything you have to give. In my experience, things work out the way they are supposed to. I am so blessed....

Hey girl, so glad you found someone! I keep telling people it's a numbers game, you just have to meet enough people and figure out what is REALLY important to you and what is not.

Hey GG!
So happy to hear you have moved on and met Mr Right. I think when you decide to live your life happy no matter what, with or without someone else - that's when it all comes together for you.
Have a wonderful Christmas!
