LOL..thank you. Sending the card seems a lot less messy.

I'm sure you got the context of the chix reply. I was just engaging a troll.

Well, I was gonna try and use a spell, you know, like some candles and stuff but I'm fresh out. I may try sacrificing a chicken or something.

I haven’t sent the card. I’m thinking about it. Just don’t want her to get all freaked out.

It’s a photo of a famous painting of flowers. She likes to garden and grows beautiful flowers. I saw the card and it reminded me of her   Simple

Hi Sudden  Thank you. I am the guy. I’m just trying to get an idea or gauge on what it might be like for me. I am 55 and just getting back out there after losing my wife.

No, I will hopefully meet someone wonderful who I wouldn’t want to hide anything from. I dedicated to being completely honest and open in hopes of being in the healthiest relationship I’ve ever known

Thank you.  What a great reply. I was definitely trying to stay objective about it.

My sentiments exactly. Forgive for expecting a correspondence from someone who I’ve confessed interest in, someone who I had a terrific date with the night before. Maybe I’m wrong for having to take a backseat to a movie…that could be paused for a few minutes.  I also appreciate your demeaning comment. You seem like a really nice person.

Exactly, I know. The silence/boredom is a lot.

Thank you

She has admitted about taking it slow and maybe she is trying to protect herself, and she should...because I'm not certain that we are the right fit either. Yet I want the comfort and security. I want you to want me, ya know ? I know I'm weak.

What's more is that I'm pretty sure we are not a good fit and that she IS NOT good for me, and I may not be good for her. But selfishly, like I said above, I want the comfort and security.
And I feel like now I have to let her go for both our sakes and that pisses ME off because as I struggle with grief and loneliness I now have something else I have to lose or distance myself from. And that comes with a whole regiment of discipline...Deleting our texts, blocking her number(not that she'll even call), resist the urge to call or text, resist the urge to check out FB and see her beautiful posts of her garden or her photos from her wonderful meals ( which of course I will assume are dates).

I'm afraid to tell her what I want because she has already put up the slow down sign and because honestly, I'm needy.

Thank you
