Introduction

Well where to start.  As a first post I should probably introduce myself.  My name is shawn and I have been divorced for about a year.  Let me tell you it had been rough even though it went pretty smoothly, if there is such a thing with divorces.
My ex and I have 2 children under 7, and it can be diffucult to navigate our still different parenting styles, though we are getting better at it.
Currently I'm getting back into the single life and the adjustment has been hard on me.  I'm not a very social person when it comes to meeting new people.  It takes me a little while to warm up to people, then I have no problem letting loose.  I'm working on that, I try to get out every few weeks to a different bar and meet new people, and I've done some online dating aswell.  Both have had successes and failures.  I've met a really good find online and I have met some women who are just out there.  As far as the bar scene I'm still working on it,  even before I was married, I never went to bars, whether it was to pick someone up or just to hang out.  The whole experience is new for me.  I'm not sure if I'm doing it right, because instead of talking to people I'm sitting here writing a blog post.  Oh, and before I go any further, spelling and grammar errors come free of charge for you to enjoy and figure out for yourself.
I'm sitting here at a bar in the corner, no friends to hang out with, no women to talk to.  What do I do, this is such an awkward feeling. I should probably order some wings or get blindly drunk or something.  Meh, we will see how it goes.  Currently I'm struggling right now, it seems like there is some sort of disconnect I have with the women in my age group. Most likely it's me, I probably get nervous and awkward and weird them out or something. Honestly I really don't get it, no matter who I talk to, they always avoid me, which I don't know why.  And the ones that do talk to me I'm not interested in.  It's like I have some sort of block I just can't get around to make it work for me.  I just can't imagine how it's easy for some people to get a girlfriend.  I really don't think I'm that unattractive that I should be having these problems. I think I just need to keep doing this over and over and it will just start getting easier....maybe? Oh and this band fucking sucks.  I think I've been writing for too long now. Goodnight
