I did it again.
I tried online dating one more time.
I tweaked my profile and narrowed down what I was looking for in a mate. The messages and profile views began to roll in.
It seems pretty obvious that if my profile says I'm looking for someone 38-50, then 24 is too young. Yet I had guys trying to connect who where young enough to be my son. I know that age difference isn't a big deal to some people, but I find it creepy when I could be your mom.
I was down to 2 guys who I was hearing from on a regular basis. Both were involved in church.
Unfortunately, red flags were waving for both.
This time I did do something different. I listened to the warning bells. I didn't ignore them. I didn't rush to meet up with anyone. Nothing developed with either guy.
And I took down my dating profile again.
Not the happy ending I was secretly hoping for.
But I am proud of myself for walking away from less than what I wanted and less than what I deserve.
