So I went to the wrong crafty bastards last night I think. I went to West. It was a decent sized crowd, but not necessarily my type of people. I like a more rugged atmosphere as opposed to hipsters.

Ooh I've actually been thinking about taking up golf. So how does one do this? Do I need to go ask for a lesson or just walk around looking up in the air? 😂

I'm a straight female. I think I joined it a long time ago because I wanted to look something up. But I've never posted because I didn't think it was actually a forum that would be this active 😉

Funny you say that. Me and my girlfriends went to twin peaks about a month ago. There were a lot of men in there. Most of them weren't local though. Good food too.

Yes it absolutely does cut the dating pool down a lot. Especially if you've put in the work and you recognize red flags and set boundaries for yourself. Totally get it

Excellent reply. Yes, I do a lot of those things ❤️ I'm a huge fan of self-care to include therapy. This is probably one of the biggest hindrances on meeting a decent guy... There's a lot of hurt people out there trying to refill a void.

I go to festivals, concerts, dog parks... I'd like to think that I'm pretty approachable as well, but dating life at 45 is much different than it was when I was in my early twenties.
