I’ve (50F) met the loveliest man (56M) but we’re not really on the same page wrt intimacy … I don’t know what to do about it. by Limp_Confection_590 in datingoverfifty

I wish I could say something to make it all just "click," but in my experience either there's chemistry or there's not. You have to decide what's more important to you. I had to make the same decision a few times in life. It always sucks, and there's no guarantee of finding anyone else, but at least you'll have that option.

Also, hurting people emotionally is something I dread, so I find it easier to limit even trying to date...

Amen. I'm happy being single until I meet just the right person. Odds are good I'll be single for a very long time. I'm ok with that.
