What is the best way to step back into the dating pool?

I’ve been separated for 9 months, with no hope for a reconcilation & I’m ready to start dating but I’m unsure how.

I’ve gone online to various communities but men seem so false and grimy. Plus I’m worried about safety issues. I’m a single mother & I don’t have a lot of time.

This is the first time I’ve been single in about six years so I am extremely rusty. But I’m ready, if you know what I mean because it’s been nine months. Help!

Is there anything besides time and distance that can heal a broken heart?

Just curious… today I found out I have been basically cheated on for the past 4 years. This feeling I have is so painful and I know that people say time & distance are the only remedies for a broken heart, but I really don’t want to feel like this for a long time.

Any advice? Thank you so much.

How is interracial love today? Is it pointless to stand/fight for it with somebody you love?

Let’s say you knew this girl who likes this guy (who secretly likes her too but won’t admit it) that was out of her race. So one day the girl decides to tell the guy how she feels, but the guy (having already face enough crap from ignorant people) tells her that she would be more happier if she dated within her own race. In truth, he feels: he’ll face a mob of ignorant people, the girl won’t be able to handle the cruelty & leave him, and that the whole thing is pointless.

What should the girl do? Is interracial love pointless?
