I'm single. Since this is such a new group, and anything is possible at this
stage, let's get started and create something good.

I am in my 40's, work at Brown University and go to school 3/4 time -- English/
Secondary Education. I lived in California 28 years before coming here and
have 3 children there.

I've noticed that here, as well as elsewhere, it is difficult for people intheir
30's and 40's and 50's (and upwards) to meet others of the opposite sex without
going to a place where people are awkward, defensive and nervous (dance bars).
I love to dance, but these places bring out the strangeness in people. As many
continue to point out, there are few alternatives. It would be good to develop
some alternatives.

I have found Rhode Island to be a friendly place, which surprised me, as I was
warned, coming from the west that it wouldn't be so friendly. It's been wonderful
to me. The weather, as my son would say, "sucks" a lot of the time--but there
are many beautiful places to see here.

I have good friends already and a great place to live, and I love school, but
it's a lot of pressure to go to work and school both.

I'm not sure if I'm being off-the-mark, writing this note, but I don't think so,
as it is such a new group that anything can be possible.
