Can Someone Who Experience Tragedy Be Ready to Date?

Sad­ness, orig­i­nally uploaded by alba calio.

I decided to Google the EHar­mony guy last night.

I found out that he had tod­dler twins who drowned two years ago. It made me sad because I could never imag­ine los­ing my chil­dren. I def­i­nitely am not going to men­tion it to him. The only thing that wor­ries me is that two years ago is a fresh wound, and that means he recently got divorced. Then I won­der if he got divorced because of the tragedy that occurred in the fam­ily. It seems like it was her neg­li­gence that caused the boys to drown, so maybe he blamed her for what hap­pened. If that’s the case, then that means that he still has unre­solved feel­ings for her.

It seems as though I always find the most emo­tion­ally unavail­able peo­ple to date.  I won­der why that is?  I saw a Sex and the City episode where Car­rie real­izes that she dates the wrong men. Is that me?  I am not say­ing that this guy is wrong for me, but I am already weary after find­ing this out.

As you are aware, this is one of the things that I need to work on. Overanalzying.

Realize I’m Lucky That Men Adore Me

I felt a lit­tle down when things ended with the guy I was dat­ing. How­ever, I real­ized that all I can do is keep on trekking. My eHar­mony sub­scrip­tion has finally run out, and I didn’t renew it. The last day of my sub­scrip­tion the last guy I was dat­ing mes­saged me. We have been chat­ting non­stop ever since. He is just as con­nected as I am, which I like. It’s not like it has been with the past cou­ple of guys I have dated who don’t know how to text or send email. He has kids, like I do.
There is also another guy. I met him while out with my guy friend. He seems sweet, and we had a ball that night. We are sup­pose to go to din­ner on Sat­ur­day, so I real­ized some­thing. I never have issues find­ing guys, so I need to be happy that I at least have a pool of guys I can date. Maybe one day, one of them will turn into some­thing more.

Need Someone to go to a Concert with Me

How can ones emo­tions go from excite­ment to worry to stress in a sin­gle breath?

I will tell you. Ear­lier today I got my tick­ets for an upcom­ing Ray Lam­on­tagne con­cert and I am so excited to go see him. I have only learned about his music for about a year, but in this year I have been moved by some of his songs.  Ini­tially when I placed the order for the tick­ets, I had a friend in mind who I was talk­ing to and going out on a few dates. We were going to go and it was going to be a great date. Unfor­tu­nately, we are not talking/dating any­more  so I am left out in the cold. I have no prospects to share this very fun and per­sonal con­cert with. I flip through my phone book (really just scroll through my iphone) and can’t see any­one who excites me to invite out with me. I could find a “friend” to take but that just makes me a bit sad that I have zero prospects to take to this show.

If you were in my shoes what would you do? Place an ad in the clas­si­fied? On craigslist? Ha … dras­tic times could call for dras­tic mea­sures. It’s not like this is the kind of con­cert where a “man-date” would be appro­pri­ate. I am stuck and have 20 days to fig­ure it out. I am on the clock!
