The First and Furious

Here I am, writing a blog about being single. I've been divorced for 2 years and have just decided to get back into the dating game. I'm almost 47 and don't know where to begin. It's all very overwhelming to be so vulnerable again, especially knowing what I know now. Life is hard, it's certainly no rehearsal, however I guess now I have a second chance. But I don't know what to do with this second chance. One would say I've been running shit scared. (That's what my mates say anyway).

I've been a dedicated blog reader for some time and love hearing about other people's lives, knowing that there are other people out there going through the same things as me, or people who even have it harder than me. I love reading about different things that people experience and giving advice and commenting. I guess you could say it has become my guilty pleasure. It makes me feel a part of something. It's like being a fly on the wall into complete strangers lives. It's so intriguing and comforting.

This is another reason why I have started to blog. I feel it is time to open up about me and share my life and experiences with the people that I follow, read, comment, share and so on. I got sick of being anonymous and wanted to matter and show my support to my favourite blog-eteers.

I've only recently become familiar with blogger so please forgive me if it seems less than perfect. I'm still finding my way around to how change my profile and set out formatting and other such issues.

I guess, here goes the single life and from here on out is an adventure.

Keep you all posted.

Andy.
