writes:My first marriage of 13 years was to a lovely woman I met in college (my first true girlfriend) who unfortunately was a child victim of sexual abuse from age 5 to 13. This came up 1 year after we were married. It led to her being committed for several months and although I went to private and group counceling sessions both with and without her we never were able to make it work. The therapist even finally said to throw-in-the-towel. Now here I am 10 years later. Still alone allbeit with a 17 year old son who will be graduating next spring. I'm not sure what to do. The online dating schemes don't appeal to me, nor do bars or church socials. I don't want to be alone but I'm deathly afraid of going through all of that pain again. Reply to this Question

It's all in the numbers. You need to meet and ask out 100 women to find just one who clicks with you. You can't say you don't like meeting women in certain ways. At that rate you'll never find a gf.

It is a very scary business and always a risk that some hurt will be involved, but always worth the risk I think for just what you may find round the corner. You don`t like clubs etc, but is there some friends that perhaps could introduce you to some of their friends and perhaps a friendship might blossom into romance along the way, but if it doesn`t at least you will have made a whole load of new friends!!! Godd luck
