re: Recently divorced, would love to hear advice from here on what to expect dating.

Dont agree with this. Tinder is for hookups and I dont recommend it unless thats all you want. If you want to meet someone you share common interests and goals with then dating apps like Hinge, Bumble etc are valuable resources. You can cut through alot of the initial BS and do some screening before having to meet someone and then waste time figuring all that out.

All very true, but you never really know until you meet them in person. I’ve been on all sides of this coin. Some girls seem great through texting and talking on the phone but once you meet them, it just doesn’t ‘click’. Some are the opposite, this girl I’m talking to now, We hardly talked or texted at all before we met for breakfast, of all things. It did click though and I like her more after each time I meet her. We’ve had 2 dates and a coffee meet up

To be fair, I also have to say that I’ve had one in particular that I thought went great. We talked/texted a lot before we met. Finally met and I thought it went as great as possible. She then clammed up and hardly answered my text afterwards. Indeed, they have a say so in this whole scenario and I guess it’s didnt ‘click’ for her. Sucks, because she was fine as wine and really sweet. It’s encouraging to know that they are good women out there you just have to keep fishing until you can find one and set the hook.
