Senior Dating

Whether friend or lover, IMHO, the most wonderful thing is to find someone to whom you can really connect. To have a man in my life who is able to run around in my mind with me, after years of being sentenced to solitary confinement in my head--that is a pearl beyond price! I am amazed.
I really don't mind being alone Shali, I have my pets and they are great.
 

Ruthanne, unfortunately, some people are quick to sense when someone has a poor self-image, and take advantage of it. I've experienced that in "romantic" relationships and work relationships. I applaud you for having the courage to stand up for yourself. Hold onto your worth! (Just woke up so I'm stumbling for the right words!)

Shalimar, I love the way you described a relationship.

I'd need a very understanding woman. Many years ago I started taking care of myself. I'm taking medications for high blood pressure. The timing was terrible. I'd just gotten married, and we were suddenly unable to make love. That inability led to the ultimate end of our marriage. I haven't been able to investigate the cause or remedy of the problem. I get terrible anxiety attacks when I contemplate anything complex. To make things worse, my last doctor visit showed my blood pressure to be sky-high. I'm already taking the maximum effective dose of my blood pressure medication. I should pursue the blood pressure issue soon.
I didn't think I had a poor self image at the time but the comment he made to me was so mean it gave me a poor self image. Yes, I do stand up for myself now. My last relationship lasted way too long and I knew I didn't like the guy right away but some people were trying to keep us together. I had to do what was right for me and end it.
 
Ruthanne, congrats on ending the relationship.
 

Thanks Ron. Fortunately, all that is in the past. Regarding your wife, some people are self absorbed. Their world ends at the tip
of their nose, making them correspondingly short sighted. Any woman who would not be supportive regarding your ED, is not wife material IMHO.
 
Really a customer in B and N...the upper teeth aren't real. Not as svelte as I used to be, are you either? I love books, much to talk about right???
