It's quite simple, How long do you want it to take before you're happily hitched up with your significant other? Personally the sooner the better, but I'm pretty fussy so it may take a little longer than I want it to.
Larf75: Would love to meet my partner but even I know that I am far to busy at the moment and don't have the time to put into making something come together.

Time This is what I'm short of and when you have your kids each alternate week like a lot of ladies who I'm guessing would have theirs full time, it's very hard to make the time, get the sitter when you are called on for the meet up.

Oops I voted wrong I was voting in a generally speaking term rather than a where I am at term
I am not really sure that I would consider anything less than 6 months a committed relationship. I think it takes that long for people to be comfortable enough around each other to truly be themselves.

Well I don't know
My kids were teenage when I embarked on my brand new life so I'm not sure how people with young children manage to get together.
And I'm happy to remain single until non-singledom happens upon me.

Well Im fairly busy myself these days. I have two kids, I work and study. Just started some volunteering to learn some skills for my course. Although, I'd like to meet someone soon. I think I need to stay focused on my studies and then I might be able to play down the track. So probably in a year or so.

When we are both ready? For someone else in our lives?
They have to have their act together, I live a happy life with meaning, a home of peace and reason where people talk together, because they want too! Even the EX keeps her cool when she visits,

You are so lucky having an ex like that. Working on a recovery order as we speak, sick of filling out affidavits. Oh to have a lady who didn't need anti deppresants to get through the day and a psychologist to pat her on the back for all the BS she spues out. Where are all the happy, spiritually fullfilled and with it women hanging out?

With their happy, spiritually fulfilled partners, of course

normalguy68: I just read in between sales in my book shop. You never know what you may find in a newage book
well if you want to find someone with interests similar to yours then perhaps you will meet her through a book group? or make friends and meet new people through them?

It is important for me at this stage, to stay on my own for a while. I wouldn't mind him staying, but at this stage I wouldn't want his clothes unloaded in my cupboard or my car parked in his garage.
I'd like to allow time to get to really know each other, pick a fight have a big barney see what he is like in anger, that sort of thing.
I'd like to keep the fire of looking forward to seeing him, and hopefully that fire would continue when you both made the decision to shack up together.
At this stage though, I want to keep my own security. Welcome back Normal.
