Thanks so much for your kind words. We nice guys do exist. I just hope I don't magically turn into an *** if I do meet someone.

I think I need to find an interest or something that's going to get me out there, but have trouble thinking what that could be. My interests tend to be nerdy (computer and role-playing games) and there's not many women that have the same interests. In the interest of at least getting out of the house, I've found a local RPG group. All I need to do next month is try to pluck up the courage to actually go!

Some people spend their lives in pubs - I just find them intimidating. Still, nothing ventured, nothing gained as they say.
