Who is Dumbfounded Divorcée???


I am a thirty-something, recently-divorced (and cheated on) female, who has impressively unlucky (yet somewhat entertaining) dating adventures—and, depressingly, I still manage to stay a hopeless romantic.  I started this blog just before my thirtieth birthday, about nine months after my husband and I had a very scarring end to our marriage.  It was August of 2010 when I finally started dating, and my experience...well, let's just say it was unique.  My friends started pressuring me to create a blog about these divorced-dating experiences, and I decided to follow their advice: Divorced, Dating, and Dumbfounded was born.

Thus, this blog is my quest through the world of post-divorce dating, attempting to re-prove to myself that all men are not awful and true love might still be possible.  I am hoping that, in addition to providing entertainment, this blog will also serve to determine 3 things for me:
  1. Is being single and dating not only fun but also preferable to married life? (my money is on 'yes')
  2. Is there actually someone out there who could truly love me faithfully and forever? (my money is on 'no')
  3. Is true love and faithful commitment still in the cards for me? Is it possible post-heartbreak? (jury's still out on this one)
So far, it's been quite the ride... and it's not even close to over yet!


Thanks for reading!
