Complete story — includes the ending

Jules is a woman in her forties who is five months out of her marriage and is being pressured by her best friends into getting "back out there" though she finds the dating scene to not be her style. But with a teenage son who would be happier if she were to hide out in the house, she tells him that she feels like she's "allowed to have a life." Now in her forties, she finds herself eager to live the dating scene that she missed. Laurie is Jules' younger co-worker, who wants to show her how to go out and have fun. Ellie is Jules' sarcastic neighbor, married and content to her average but lovable husband Andy. There's also Jules' family, her ex-husband Bobby and her son Travis, who will test her patience, and her new fortysomething divorced neighbor Grayson, who doesn't believe that Jules can date again.
