How to Date after Divorce or should I even try???

Hey Sis, Do you or anyone in the tribe have experience or advice with dating after divorce? I was married for 10+ years & have been divorced for 2 years or more now and I think that I’m ready to get back out there. I'm kinda tired of being by myself & just not having that special person in my life. I guess the Holidays don't make it any better. Sometimes it just gets a little lonely, I have some girlfriends, but there's something about a man's companionship that I just miss. Just the conversation, pov, I don't know exactly, but I even don't know where to start. Also how to maneuver because I have kids. Can y'all help a Sis out? Well, Sis We got you! My view since I have had some experience in this arena recently. "The Holidays" have a way of putting everyone in a somber mood when it comes to thinking of where you are in life or maybe where you should be. As far as dating TAKE YOUR TIME! Make sure you are ready & make sure it's for the right reasons Sis. Take a moment to reflect in the long run this will be better for you the potential. I too have children and as a divorced parent, you need to "take care of yourself" so I completely understand. We as Women spend so much time catering to everyone else. We always put our needs on the back burner. If & when YOu think you're ready to GET BACK OUT THERE SIS, there's no clock on your life. What I will say is it's a bit different out here nowadays. AT least it was for me lol. I guess when you've been off the scene for a while you kind of miss the way things are handled & 10-15 years is a while Sis. So you have to ease back into things. Learn from my mistakes girlfriend talk to your kids & explore. Learn who YOu are again. What YOu like? What has changed over the years? What you've been missing as well as what YOu deserve? It all may be different now. One Sis said to go on multiple dates with multiple people to see what's out there. Test the waters per se. Another said to join an online dating site to start slow so you get multiple people in one place kinda like a cattle call interview, she said it gives you time to weed out the weirdos and ask all of the awkward questions ahead of time. There are so many different options and so much time. YOu have endless possibilities Sis, do YOu! What Say YOu Tribe??? What words of encouragement do YOu have for SIS????
