Dating: No one said it was easy, but oh so worth it

Dating is difficult! And if you like dating or those first date butterflies, how do you find that? Online dating is the new way to meet people, make new friends and if you are the 20% of the online dating population - you have found love and marriage. (weddingchannel.com)

Welcome to my blog - part of www.thelgrl.com, where I will share tips I have learned, share things I have done that maybe I shouldn't have and anything else interesting I find about dating.

I was probably like you at one point. Unsure, jaded by love and thinking that online dating was ridiculous. But the universe has a weird way of getting their message across, and I heard it - loud and clear! A design client came to me and asked if he could hire me to help him date. Re-write his profile and help him find love.

What an opportunity! I had no idea that it would go beyond where it has - but the universe has it's way of showing people what they are good at. Creativity runs rampant through my blood and that's all I can focus on.

Friends started asking me for help, and pretty soon I felt like a little matchmaker helping people find love. So what about me? My iced over, cold heart began to turn warm again - remember how love felt and why it is important. Living through the difficult times of domestic violence gave me new life in some ways and sadness in other aspects.

But love exists and no matter what you or someone you know has gone through the most important thing to remember is that we are all survivors and we can love again and feel again.

For those who are hopeless romantics, like a few of my friends, what a beautiful thing! Love is out there for anyone wanting and willing to put themselves out there.

6 months ago I didn't believe in love much less a match for me or anyone else. Now, anything is possible - as long as you believe in it.

Stay tuned,
