Back in the dating game?

One of our readers is newly divorced and a little apprehensive about dating again. She wants to dip her toe in the dating pool but before she does, she wants answers: When should she ask a man out? What does it mean when guys only want to text her conversations?

If you are returning to the dating scene, is it hard getting back in the game? One of my guy friends said he forgot how to approach a woman. He had to make up excuses to speak to someone because he had not remembered how he used to get Phone numbers.

The trickiest part perhaps is hooking up, sleeping over and saving sex for later. What advice would you give someone on these options?
