The Dude Circus (eBook, ePUB)

Grab your popcorn for my funny and freakish stories of online dating as a midlife ticket holder

Beschreibung

In The Dude Circus, Rose Heyze shares the ups and downs, the freaks and clowns, and her wild experiences in online dating after being "off the market" for more than two decades.

Her eye-opening and wild ride includes:

. The Creepy Shit: Dating is a circus, and I'm stuck in the freak tent.

. The New Language: Come one, come all! Check out the online speak!

. Cougar Time: Built to amaze, built to astonish-but age still matters.

. My Dick Circus Is Vast: Peep show, anyone?

Learning to navigate the language and rules of online dating was a baptism by fire: shocking, laugh out-loud hilarious, devastating at times, but ultimately rewarding. If you, too, are reentering the dating world, Rose's wisdom and lessons learned can help guide you through with your eyes open and your wits about you while keeping your self-esteem and sense of humor intact.

Autor

I'm a fifty-year-old divorced therapist from the Midwest who has always been a writer but never an author-until now. I help people for a living, so naturally it made sense to write my first book about a topic that pushed at my own confidence and self-esteem. I grew up in a loving family, the oldest sister, with a mom who stayed home with us and a dad who worked but always helped my mom, parented, and never needed to be asked to be involved in his kids' lives. Their marriage was the best role model of how relationships should look and feel. My parents are still married after nearly fifty-five years, so my role models are fiercely intact and lovingly supportive. I went to college, got my master's in social work in the mid-1990s, and got married in the late 90s to someone I met at work. Twenty-two years later, I found myself broken and divorced while the world also seemed to be breaking, and this is when I decided dating would be a good idea. Little did I know what was waiting for me. I am a "old lady distance runner" who started running at age thirty-eight and never wanted to be competitive. I run to spend intentional time with some of my best friends, and it was on these runs that I would tell my dating stories. I got feedback, support, love, and most of all, a lot of laughter. "Rose, you have to write a book about these men." So, I did. I had to write about what was happening to be able to laugh and heal, and I realized, as my friends kept laughing, that humor was my coping mechanism.
