I joined this group over a year back, thinking I was ready to start dating. I've been single almost 3 years from a long marriage and a long messy break up. Not dating for over 20 years it looked very daunting, I've not even tried the dating apps as so many people warn me off them.
So this takes me up to about a month ago when a neighbour asked me for a date, my very 1st date in years. Got along fine, he seems really nice and is handsome.
I'm not ready for a relationship so made this clear from the start. He suggested he's open to being friends with benefits.
This seems to tick a few boxes for me, the 1 main one being sex that I have really missed a lot.
So my question if others have been here, what do I have to worry about? Both said we'll not sleep around elsewhere. Not bothered about letting others know, especially my kids. Don't think I'll break my heart over this.
My girl friends main opinions are "go get some".
Is this right?
