Dear Dr Abel,
I WAS so happy for this article. My situation is a little different, but I have accepted it. I have dated a couple of times, but these dates just don't mature into anything as most times the men are seeing someone else, and I certainly don't want one of those.
What you could do is to start some kind of 'register' for single/divorced/separated (available) men who are looking for companionship. I have not been able to find anyone, but there must be someone out there. I am tired of being alone.

Dear Dr Abel,
With respect, this had to have been written and compiled by a man. Although it may be clinically correct, it lacks the sensitivity and true understanding of what this experience is. Our own Jamaican saying is 'who feels it knows it'.
