They say you've got to kiss a lot of frogs before you find your prince...

...and they also say that it's more difficult for a single woman in her 40s to find a partner than a woman in her 20s. Statistics prove this, aparrently.

Well I'm 42, single, and am here to show that the only reason that it is ever difficult to get anything that you want is if you believe that it's difficult - if you believe the statistics.

I am about to go on a mission - a dating spree. An adventure in finding love. And I'm going to share that adventure with you. Over the next 100 weeks, I'm going to date 100 men and I'm going to tell you all about each date - how I met them, what they were like, why they were right or wrong for me, how I felt and if they're likely to be my soul mate or not. All names will be kept confidential, and all identifying material will be removed.

This is not just for women in their 40s but this is for anyone who sits back and lets themselves be told what they can and can't do. This is for people who don't want to just sit back and let life happen to them. This is for you.

Why one hundred men? Why not? I can't just sit here and wait for my soul mate to turn up. He's not going to knock on my door in the middle of EastEnders and carry me off into the sunset. I have to go out and look for him.

Feel free to join me on my journey and if you have any tips, please do post them.

What a fascinating idea. I've just read your post concerning latest date. It never occured to me someone would think through details that way. When I was younger I dated casually for years then met my wife, in a pig sty believe it or not, and just knew instantly that I'd found what I sought. Five years on I feel the same. Now I'm hoping something similarly unexpected will happen for you. Good luck.

Hi Lindow,
Thanks for your good luck wishes. How fabulous and unusual to meet your wife in a pigsty. It's like a scene in a movie. Mind you, I am taking it for granted that your wife is human. :-)

I wish you many more years of happy marriage.

Your blog sounds extremely interesting (started reading it with your first entry).

Being in a similar situation myself, I'm eager to hear about your experiences.  :D
