Hi everyone. I am pretty new here although I had posted a couple concerns earlier about starting to date. You all gave me great advice and comradery. I thank you for that.


So after being separated for a year, I finally made the plunge, and had my "first" date. I was married for 18 years, so you can probably understand how scary I was to meet some one for the first time. LOL


I originally met him on POF, and after a week of talking met him in person by the beach. It went better than I thought, he's patient, funny, and very cute. I know that people always put "their best" behavior on when they first meet, so I hope this guy is for real.

Congrats - we are glad we can help! Keep us posted - we want to hear more stories. Sounds to me like you have the right approach with moving along at a comfortable pace for you and seeing if he will stay as good as he seems right now - can't go wrong with that!
