It only takes ONE!

I haven't had much time to spend on the board the past couple months but I want to take a few minutes to share some great news about B. I've been doing the OLD thing for over a year, on/off Match, EH and YP. Although I was still a paying member, I pretty much had given up hope of ever finding the right man for me, especially considering my age (mid 50's) and the slim selection of attractive men in my age range that are looking for women my age. Well, 2.5 months ago I started email/phone conversations with B and after about 2 weeks we had our first date and WOW, the fireworks were unbelievable! Of course we had established a certain comfort level from email/phone but when we met in person it was like electricity for both of us! We are still dating and every date is BETTER than the one before. I followed all the advice I've learned from all the great women on this board and had "the talk" about my expectations BEFORE we ever engaged in making love. He understood my expectations, felt the same way and we have a wonderful love life (in our mid 50's....go figure!) We have so many similar beliefs and values, like the same things, have similar interests, he is kind, gentle, loving, almost too good to be true! We both are taking it slow and enjoying every moment we spend together and we often say "God has truly blessed us and we hope that we are smart enough NOT to screw up a wonderful relationship".

For all you great women that are still searching for that perfect man for you, don't give up! Keep looking because remember, it only takes ONE! BTW, we have been dating over 2 months now, how exciting is that!

Judy with the BIG SMILE!

Awww, that is just so wonderful to hear of your good news. You so deserve it because I know that you, as well as all the others on this board, have been doing OLD for awhile and you have been through your fair share of trial and error. I'm so happy to hear of your good news! This goes to say that even if you are a bit older you can still find someone great.

Biochic, thanks so much for your words of encouragement! Age is a state of feelings, and I feel like a wild and crazy girl again! B and I just had a erotic crazy weekend...again...life is really lots of FUN when you find the right man!

Thanks so much for responding to my post! My life was already great, before B, but he brings that those qualities a single person can't share with that special man, like passion, romance and a supportive and caring partner. We met on Eharmony, I had decided to give it another try (my 3rd subscription) and there he was, looking for the same things I was searching for! The right man is out there for you, it just takes kissing LOTS of frogs to find that true King! Best Wishes! Judy
