I agree with all posters. It took me about 8 months post-RT but I did try an online dating service (and if you don't want to pay for match dot com, try plentyoffish dot com - it's free!) and actually went on a couple of dates with one woman. That it didn't work out was due only to chemistry and had nothing to do with cancer. It's tough, but worth a try.
