That is so true. My best friend loves to go out every other weekend when she doesnt have her kids. In part to attempt to meet someone, and in part to dance and get in some exercise neither of us has time for these days. But now that i am approaching 40, my kids are more friends than children, i love to spent time with them. They all work out of the house and those nights I am alone are absolutely meditating. I love the alone time. As the weather is getting nicer, working in the yard is also relaxing. And as you say, when you have a 'friend' you can call for the moments you need a little bit of adult play time, there is a little less need for the chase. I like to think I too am a hidden gem and one day another man will know that. ( I too have been divorced for a long time - 12 yrs) nice post notasoccermom´s last blog post..Employed Once Again

Ya know, if it helps I don’t think you have to get dressed up to go out. I think there is nothing sexier then a guy in a (clean) t-shirt, khaki shorts & a baseball hat!!! Very nice!!! Then it appears you’re not trying to hard that way!

I totally need to go out, but I also like staying home. When I had a 10 day jag without my family, I spent more time in solitude on the couch with some DVDs than I did out with my friends.

OMG is everyone getting old here? lol I must be apart of the getting old crowd too. I find myself going out a couple times a month and being happy with that. I don't miss the days of going out all weekend and a couple times during the week. Eathan´s last blog post..Modern Single Momma Contest

Sounds like Homebody Central! I'm not going to buck the trend because I, too, prefer to stay at home. Given that Little Elvis lives with me full-time, even on the weekends he spends with his mom, I tend to stay at home. I might be tank-refill time but, more often than not, it's my preference. I think one reason online introductions are so attractive and popular is that it doesn't place either party in a situation that uncomfortable like...going to bars and clubs just to meet people.

I'm kind of the opposite...lately I've really wanted to be out and about a lot more! I always become less of a homebody when spring hits. Janet´s last blog post..Flirting -- 19th-Century-Style!

I'm a homebody but it's more because I've recently moved to a new area where I only know a handful of people. And the few single people I know in the area go to the bars over and over and over. Now that I'm in my 30's I'm really not into the bar scene all that much anymore. Sure I like to go out dancing, have some drinks & have fun but the bar scene is so tiring and nothing more than a big meat market. But I do have to admit that for the most part I'm perfectly content being a homebody. I like just vegging. Tishia Lee´s last blog post..I’m Thankful for My Son’s Dad
