Dating advice for a friend

2 replies

My friend and co-worker is divorced and looking to get into dating. She's 30 and from Asian culture and moved to UK 5 years ago. She had an arranged marriage and her ex was abusive. He cheated and betrayed her and she has been going through therapy.
She wants to now take control of her life and get into dating. Since, she's new to the culture here and is open to date and possibly marry men from any culture. She's asking for some advice and I appreciate if there is any advice she can get, posting for her as she's not on MN.
I am older now and long time out of dating scene with kids so, thought would seek some advice here.

I recommend getting out of the house and socialising face to face. whether thats down the pub or joining a group. loads of meet up groups around, try to find one that appeals to men as well as women such as motorbike groups, whisky tasting or military history.

You can get to know someone beforehand that way and decide whether you like them BEFORE you date them.
