@A4 it was more than once.... over many many hours/days.... with many solo conversations. I have spent more time with them at this point than I would have probably 5 dates in on apps for what it is worth. Have also somewhat known them for years though in a more aquaintancy way. Is it so strange to expect married people to wear a ring? I'm not asking for recommitment but it seems to make a statement when you wear them on basically every finger but your ring finger. And again I hope the person is happily married/that would make their situation much easier even if it sucks for me but the grim reality is that the 5-year divorce rate for the specific relevant subgroup is over 60%. Also I don't really hit on people/would just directly ask them out, am interested in them more because we apparently have an incredible amount in common and had never realized it before, and feel as though they may actually like me too and give it a shot if single.

I lived in tampa in my early 20s and am now in my late 30s and looking to move back. One of the reason I left is because I felt I had too much energy for the city for a single young professional, but now husband is from there and we have a kid but we are both social people. Do you guys find it easy to meet interesting people and has the city gotten any more fun?

I recently went from having an incredibly open and intimate long-term relationship with a person I was certain I was going to marry… to now getting asked “what’s your favorite color” on a first date. Godddd I hate dating sometimes
