dating trials

I have a friend who just divorced at the age of 46. she is trying online dating and blind dates with friends of friends. watching this is very interesting! today she had a 2nd date with a man and he is now touching her. she is not used to public displays of affection and is quite uncomfortable. he also called her "cutie." she about blew it when he did that! it reminded me that i am quite happy not having to date anymore. dating sucks! i think of my daughters and they have to date to find a man, hopefully they date a few men before finding the one, but i also hope they don't date too long and miss out. quite a dance that we have to go through in life to find someone we like enough to spend time with and the rest of our life as well.
