Recently divorced, she\u2019s a little nervous, but excited for new experiences and possibilities. Unsure where to start, Colleen reaches out to a few of her girl friends to arrange plans for Saturday night. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Attempt #1 is Colleen\u2019s best gal pal from the office. Samantha is also recently divorced, but unlike Colleen, she has completely surrounded herself with work. \u201cYou know, I would but I will be out of town this weekend for a conference and open house, and have that retreat the following weekend. How does your schedule look in a month?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Colleen doesn\u2019t think much of it and tries again. \u201cWho gets lucky on their first attempt, anyway?\u201d she muses as she dials.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Attempt #2 is Colleen\u2019s best friend from grad school. Erin has college-aged children and has much more availability these days. \u201cI\u2019m so sorry,\u201d she sighs. \u201cThe hubby and I are doing date night this Saturday. We\u2019ve just been so busy lately, I can\u2019t even tell you the last time we\u2019ve had a meal together.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feeling a little disheartened, she shakes it off and scrolls through her phone looking for another number.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Attempt #3 is her best and oldest friend, her sister Karen. \u201cShe\u2019ll be up for a few drinks this weekend!\u201d She thinks hopefully. Karen is married with middle school-aged twins with rather complicated extracurricular schedules. \u201cI\u2019d love to go out with you,\u201d she says. \u201cBut the girls have soccer tournaments this weekend.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Discouraged, Colleen opens a bottle of wine and settles in for another night of reruns on the couch. She comes to the realization that dating has changed drastically in the last few years. <strong>Meeting people isn\u2019t as easy as it was in her younger years.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These are common stories we hear every day, says Jennifer Hayes of South Carolina Matchmakers. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Want to get back into the dating scene, but aren\u2019t sure where to start?
