Hi sdjeff,
First off, I want to say I'm so glad to hear you're feeling better! I hope it lasts a very long time for you.
About the dating advice, I don't know if I'm the best person to offer any as I haven't done a whole lot of dating and both my ex-husband and current husband met me prior to my depression really setting in. I will say I believe honesty is the best policy. That said, though, give it some time before you pour your heart out. Give her a little time to get to know the lighter sid of you before you share the tougher stuff, so to speak. That way, you'll also have a better sense of what she can and maybe will be able to handle. Plus, it will give you a chance to decide if *you* really want to share anymore with her. I agree with Dee that working on the friendship first usually helps.
I must say, though, that I believe this is all a moot point, anyway, as KK and I will be by at 9:15 to pick you up for dinner tomorrow night. Hope you like Taco Bell!
Take care,
All Done
