    Firstly most of you wil not see this as a problem. But to a 45yld divorcee who has kept himself single on purpose for 8 years its wrecking my head.
    I have spent 8 years onn my own with 5 of them being celibate on purpose as I felt I was not ready mentally to commit to a relationship and having sex just for the sake of it did not do my head any good either.
    During 2010 I began to feel much better about how my life was going and I have probably let the wall I built up fall without really realising it.
    Lately I seem to be the no.1 person to sit beside in the canteen( my male workmates have started to slag me over this). And this week 2 girls I deal with on the road in my job have both passed my thier number and said to give them a call(both of these I would have been dealing with weekly for the last 2 years.
    On top of this 2 girls from clubs I am very involved with where text messages are used for meet ups have started to text and call regularly just for general chat rather than club stuff

    So my problem is its been so long since I asked anyone out I have lost my bottle and have no idea where to start as I dont want to mess anyone about

    It seems to me that you haven't lost your bottle.. seems to me like you have got it back :)

    From your post it sounds like you are now happy with your life, maybe old hurts have healed and maybe you did need the time out to decide what you wanted.

    My advice would be just to ask one of the girls out, keep it casual, I don't think there is any need to get all hung up on it, just say "We must meet up for a pint some night", or something like that..

    Go on ask a girl out :)

    Best of luck :)
