This is not a tale about the breaking, but of the putting back together. In the summer of 2014, Portland, Oregon resident Marie MacMillan was enjoying life in her twenties. Until one day, heartbreak upended everything. Trying to move on, Marie didn't want to sign up for any dating websites. She didn't want to have meaningless rebound flings. She just wanted to find her self-worth again. Hang on! (Marie exclaimed). I'll date myself. That's what I'm going to do. Marie furiously typed up a List of 50 Dates to take herself on. That list was long and challenging-it might even take a year to finish. Marie didn't care. She was going to reboot herself, one step at a time.
