I Am Ready To Date Again, But Very Nervous, Tips?

My ex-husband left me a little over three years ago now. After that happened, it took me a good two years before I got my life back in order.
Now I feel great, and look back on my darker days as something in my past, something that I learned a lot of positive lessons from, but would never want to re-live. I have absolutely no contact with my ex or his family and we did not have any kids together, either, thank goodness. I was with him ex-husband a total of 5 years (age 20-25) and now I am 28 and feel totally out of the dating loop.
I’m going to post a personal ad online, but it is very easy to hide behind a computer screen. It’s the actual going on a date thing that has me very nervous. I am confident in the person that I have become, but I tend to be very shy in social settings, preferring to be a part of the actively involved audience, rather than take center stage. Any tips?

Second Date Tips And Help Please?

I went on a date with a guy that I’ve been talking to for maybe a few days before Christmas. The date went real well, we talked better than I thought since I’m normally real shy and quiet at first but I felt like I could act myself around him since we have a lot in common, but we saw a movie and after we didn’t talk much but we where both tired. I did make some mistakes like mentioning my ex since he had a necklace that my ex gave me from a festival, I didn’t want to say anything but I guess I made a face towards it and he asked what was wrong, I told him but changed the subject. I think the big one was when he got me home. He was taking his seat belt off and at the time I didn’t think he would want to walk me to the door, I just hugged him and said something like ‘we should hang out again’.
Was that really bad?
Since then he has been acting kind of off when I talk to him online, but just a few hours ago we talked real well again. I did ask him that I wanted to either hang out at my place or his place or just go out; he liked the idea but didn’t want to make plans yet because of his work. I live with my dad and it’s a somewhat small apartment, and he lives alone which I’m iffy with since we only had one date so far. We clicked better than I thought we would, but I have only been with one guy in the 23 years I’ve been alive and we dated almost 5 years, so this whole thing is still new to me so I am unsure what to do next to show him that I want to date him, but not act desperate.
So please help!

1st Date In A Long Time Help! Tips?

Might sound dumb, but met this guy online and we’re going to the movies and possibly dinner tomorrow night after i work. Now, I’ve ONLY been with my ex, and we dated almost 5 years, and its been a little over 7 months since he left, so i am i guess kinda new at dating i guess so kind of unsure on what to do i guess. And I know its kind of scary since i met this guy online, but i met my ex online and i talked to 2 other guys before this new one, one turned out to be a jerk and the other just didn’t click but i never met them in person. I have this guys myspace and facebook and friends and family have checked on him, lol. Ive been talking to him for at least 2 weeks now and we have almost everything in common, so we pretty much clicked right away. But again, ive only been with one guy and for almost 5 years so any tips on 1st dates hehe? I am a shy person, tho online i talk but i know ill prolly be quiet at 1st with him, like i was when i 1st met my ex. So yeah, gimme tips i guess hehe, even if my question may sound kinda dumb lol.

How Does A Single Black Woman Get A Date These Days?

I’m 25 and I’ve never had a kiss, let alone a boyfriend. I live in a very small city where the guys just aren’t interested in and/or attracted to black women, particularly those that are dark-complected like myself. I’m smart, friendly, I have a nice figure, and I always get compliments on my smile.
I don’t like the bar scene, but I go to many professional functions. I’ve tried online dating, but most guys don’t even list black women in their preferences. And the few guys that respond are usually your typical no job baby momma types complete with the shiny grill or they’re much older, which I’m not really for.
I’ve been told that it takes time, but I’m almost thirty! What should I do? Am I too picky? Are men intimidated? am I just not attractive enough to even be approached?

First Date After Meeting Online?

I met someone online couple days ago. We talked for hours and had a ton in common and it was fun talking. I talked to her on the phone today. We had a good but short convo and are going to get lunch (first date) this weekend. Any tips?? I’ve never been out with someone i met online. Will it be awkward? I’m pretty cool so i don’t think so :)
