Yes?

Pampering yourself always feels good.
...
but, just in case you are thinking to yourself...
Hhhmmmm,
This online dating thing?  Is it worth my while?

I think you should, at the very least, give online dating a look...even if its only a peek.
As I told my friend, you need to exhaust all avenues before you can question destiny/fate.
He would and still does complain.
"I can't find anyone"
Well, Joe...
Whatcha doing about it?
He says it as if he expects a knock on his door from his Juliet.
I tell him, how he needs to be proactive in order to make headway in his 'mission' of finding someone.

What's the worst that can happen?
He meets 5, 6, 7 different women that he would never have gotten the opportunity to meet?  If he likes them or not, at least he tried.

My rules for online dating:
Know what you want, Look for what you want...and demand what you want.
(No need to settle)
No need to drag it out.  Cut loose ends quickly, before feelings form from either one of you.
Treat each potential suitor as if they are applying for a job interview...meaning...ASK QUESTIONS!  The more the better.
One question that makes me chuckle, "if I googled you...what would I find out?"
And, finally...
Be careful, be very careful of what you share about yourself.
(That's a big one)
If you share too much too soon, it may get you into trouble.

If you do the online dating thing right, you can potentially find many good fish...but, alls you need is one.  The right one.
All in All, you should come across many.
So many, you will feel overwhelmed.
But, you do need to be assertive and serious with your approach and demeanor.
Life is too short to sit by the sidelines wondering what it feels like to be in the game.

You just never know, what happens once you fully apply yourself to blind faith...
You just might catch a whiff of a dream.
and if you are quick to see it
Reach out and touch it...feel to see if its real...

Everything in life is work in progress...
About the only thing that you can argue isn't...
Is History...
and even that is debatable...especially history that repeats itself.
