He called me on Saturday night and we talked for 3 hours. We laughed and at times discussed where we stand. In the beginning it was he wasn't sure about a relationship because he has been mired in his solitude. Now it's he needs to lose 100 lbs. He admits he hates that he's gained so much weight and since I know how hard it is to get started losing the only thing I could offer was to help him when if he asked. To date I have lost 62 lbs and I know that the rest will come off by Feb 2007. He mentioned that he wanted to be able to sit on the couch and watch a movie with me and rub my feet but he needs to lose 100 lbs and until then he just doesn't want to bring me into his life like that. This is great progress and I am so proud of him. I have learned so much patience in regards to men that I never knew before. (I knew it but I always wanted to rush things)
Whether or not we end up together I haven't a clue. My online friend in Florida and I are really quite attached and I adore him. Never went looking for him but things happen when you least expect it. With him I also am not in any rush to tie him down.
Lessons come from the most unlikely sources and I am glad that I am having the opportunity to learn even at my old age. *wink wink*
Thanks for the advice.
