The first suggestion I'm making MIGHT hurt like the devil. THE ONLY suggestion I can make is to forget about any former beau and move-on! DON'T you dare sit home on Friday or Saturday evening - or any evening waiting for him to "throw you a bone"! GET OUT of that mindset and that environment! Due to the fact many folks have the ability to do the following things, I don't think there is any reason you shouldn't have someone in your life to: 1) Properly communicate with you; 2) AND give you respect, dignity, honor and eventually the love, you deserve. Here's how to possibly meet someone better: If you go to church, temple or mosque on a regular basis and no one there seems to interest you, find-out when social functions are being held at another church, temple or mosque and attend functions there - at the second or third church, temple or mosque of the same denomination. If you have one or more hobbies or outside interests such as fishing, knitting, computers, cooking, baking, etc., find a club or group in your area with people who have the same hobbies or interests. At your work, ask about professional organizations, which you can get involved with and participate in. Find a worthy charity and on a regular, dependable basis - just as though it was a second job - do volunteer work for that charity. Wherever and whatever it is, within a reasonable travelling time and distance from your home or work, ask about, JOIN, PARTICIPATE AND BE ACTIVE! "The powers that be" and many caring, loving people - the folks you may be hoping to meet and "rub elbows with" and get to know, are those ladies and gentlemen doing volunteer work at hospitals, nursing homes, worthy charities and causes. When you do volunteer work on a consistent, dependable basis, your ability increases, your horizons expand and meeting that "special someone" AND possibly "climb, up the social ladder" could be greatly shortened and you could be recognized A WHOLE LOT SOONER. Are you self-conscious or shy? Go on-line and do a search about being more outgoing and an extrovert. There may be a solution to your situation: It's NOT inexpensive ("cheap"). It requires YOUR dedication and complete cooperation. I attended one of the world's leading public speaking classes on two different occasions AND I was a "Graduate Assistant" ("G.A.") once. There were folks of all kinds of backgrounds, cultures and ethnicities who attended those classes. There may be classes in your particular area of within 20 to 25 miles of where you live and work. Those classes WORK! If you are in school, look into a public speaking club or the debate team. LAST, but certainly not least: JOURNAL EVERY DAY. Write down things - on your computer: Thoughts, questions, things you learned and were taught, lessons you learned, things NOT to do, comments, books, etc. It's not hard. THE HARDEST PART IS GETTING STARTED - THEN CONTINUING! Thanks for asking your Q! I enjoyed answering it! Very Truly Yours, Ron Berue Yes, that is my real last name!

Two days each week I volunteer at Magee Rehabilitation Hospital, 1513 Race Street, Philadelphia, PA. 19102-1177 "THE University of Hard Knocks" also known as ("a/k/a") "life's valuable lessons".
