Topic: RE: Tell us about yourself
I'm Stacy. I'm 27 and I work in higher education, which I really love. I can't say I love my particular job, but I definitely want to stay in higher ed. Hopefully I'll be movin' on up once I finally get my master's degree this summer!! I keep saying that 2010 is my year!
I don't have any kids, but I do have a 5 year old papillon named gizmo, he is like a child anyway.
My main interests are traveling, hockey, Ireland, movies and music. I'm an incredible nerd and I love history, literature and art. In my spare time I hang out with my friends and family. I'll do anything from going to the ballet to playing in a sandbox. I think life is more about who you're with than where you are.
Feel free to message me anytime!

Topic: RE: Tell us about yourself
I am a single mom of one 20 yr old.
I live in Atlanta, Ga
Haven't dated hardly at all since the divorce 12 years ago.
Still like men, but not sure if they are worth the trouble(looking for one that is)
Like to laugh, appreciate people with weird or dry sense of humor.
Just had surgery in December and the losing is slow, not feeling the confidence yet to get "out there" in the dating scene.

The beauty of a woman is not seen through what she wears. It is seen through how she carries herself and the way she doesn’t allow herself to settle. Don’t ever let anyone take for granted the beauty that is within you. Stand firm and know that you’re a wonderful person. Always remember your value and respect yourself. I’m so blessed to have you in my life. Sometimes we all need to be reminded how special we really are!

Topic: Tell us about yourself
I am a single mom of three and live in a small town in Indiana. I am having a hard time getting back into the dating scene, and thought that others might be having the same problem and that is why I started this group.
I work for the federal government, and have a good job. Although the job is good, I am gone 12 hours a day because I work 8 hours and travel 2 hours before and after work. Needless to say that I am limited on time that I have to spend with someone, but I do not work weekends and almost always have time then.
I am not looking for a dad/father for my children. I am very capable of supporting and taking care of them myself. I am looking for someone who will accept them as they would me, because they are apart of me and will not be pushed aside.
My favorite color is : BLUE all shades of blue
I love to go to garage sales, auctions, flea markets and the Goodwill. I am sure most can relate with our ever changing bodies.
I am honest and blunt and respectful, and expect the same in return.
This is just a brief get to know you post, if you would like to know more, just message me. I am not afraid to talk or answer questions, but some are just better left for inquiring minds.
Good luck all and hope that you find this board exciting and helpful.

Topic: Thank you and welcome!!!
I wanted to start out by saying thank you for joining the group. I hope that it is beneficial in the way of getting to know others that are single. I know from my experience that I am having a hard time getting back into the dating scene and have no where to turn to meet new people. I live in a very small town and the next biggest towns do not have good places to meet people (bars, not interested).
I am hoping that we keep this group active in getting to know each other. I thought what a better place then here for us to meet singles that have at least one thing in common and then moving on from there. I have found that with the lifestyle change that I have made because of my decision to have RNY, that it is hard for some to grasp at the fact that we are not the same people that we were before. Yes we are the same people, but we have changed in one shape or form. I think that alot of people do not know enough information about the types of obesity and what it can do to your body and life. Then when you try to better yourself healthwise, it seems that there is someone there to take you down. That is what I am finding.
I have some friends (and yes I still call them friends, because I would have no one if I did not) who always wanted to go out and have a good time when I was heavier. I was always the "fat friend" and they knew that there was not any competition for men. Now that I am the "skinny friend" they (none of them) have asked me to go out at all. I think that they are afraid that I might be approached instead of them. My intention is not to go out and block all of my friends from meeting others who might find them attractive. I just like to go to have fun, normally dancing and socializing.
So now that is a little about me and I hope that you post often, and PLEASE tell your friends about this group so we can keep it alive.
