Why does it seem like everyone has moved on after divorce? Whether it be dating or already in a good relationship. I feel like I’ve had plenty of time to process – it’s been 2 years – but I just can’t go on a successful date. It’s like I can’t just be myself. I’m so awkward and I misread signals. All of my friends are in relationships and I feel like such a failure, so alone.
Thanks for reading this. I know it wasn’t really a “question” but I needed to get it off my chest to people that have possibly been in my shoes.

It’s easy to feel like you’re the only one. But tons of people can relate to this. Dating is hard and many people hate it. Once you find the right person, conversation will come easily and you should feel at ease.

I think your best bet is to not try to date. Its clear you’re feeling sorry for yourself and you need to work on your own development a while to get yourself in a more confident and comfortable with yourself place. Let the right person fall into your lap. It usually happens that way anyway.

Sounds like you’re trying to be someone you’re not. Awkward is cool these days embrace it.

Trying too hard? I think your desperation to be in a relationship is projecting in a way that probably turns people off? Relax a little? Drink a little more wine on your date? Ha!
