Hi Everyone...I thought I'd add my 2 cents worth...I first visited TV on a lifestyle preview in July 2008 with a girlfriend and we had a ball but I didn't know how it would be to be here alone. So I took the plunge and rented for Jan, Feb, and March. I have been renting now since Jan 1 and although its only been a few weeks I can already feel that TV is about individuals - not labels like single, couple,etc. I am a widow and had the same concerns as other singles - is it only for couples?? I went to Crispers on Friday with a few butterflies in my stomach but I immediately felt included (Kathie is a great hostess). It was so nice to see people liking people and not even asking if you were single or married. If you want to have fun you can or if you want to sit in the house and look at the walls you can do that too here. For me, I've decided its time for some fun in my life.... I can't wait til my place in NY sells so I can be here full time - to be honest, I don't want to go back so the offer I just got better work out!
Regards, Charlene
