43 M NYC—I don’t want to die alone

So I have a really messy background and have been just taking myself seriously just a few years ago. Story is..I was married and found out my wife was cheating. We separated and I went downhill into a serious depression. A few years ago I decided to stop feeling sorry for myself and have been working on myself since. However I have been single and have not been with anyone for over 5 years. Now I am lonely and am having a hard time meeting people. I don’t know if this is the place to find anyone but it’s worth a try. So if you’re interested in a hopeless romantic, who cares deeply and send a message and let’s see what happens.
