I got an email from trav today. I haven't heard from him since before Christmas. He's in the neighborhood...


I am having all these weird feelings. Just yesterday I went through this whole thing in my head about "I'll never get over him. No one else is going to compare, and no one will make me feel the way he did." I talked myself out of it by saying not to be stupid, I hadn't even heard from him which should tell me that I meant a lot less to him than I had believed. So...of course...now I hear from him.


*sigh*...

I hear you on that. No, Israel is the man with a plan...he's giving himself 6 months to learn english and then he's going to work on certification to do the same thing here that he trained to do back home, which is electromechanical technology. No slouch this one.

OH, and he's already made two job advancements since he's been here, and learned a lot of english on his own.

Of course you are asking the right person the right question because I like a younger guy so I have researched this to death.

I asked all my latin friends about age. Most say don't worry - love is love and it is timeless.

I agree with fivesense - he has to have money and be solvent and have a career.

This sounds fun for you!! But make sure he courts you and asks you out - not just hugging and hanging out.

is your crush latino?


Oh no, if it's just friends, it's just friends. If he wants it to be more than that, he'll have to single me out as his. I think he's pretty honorable, in general...so we'll see.

That's good that he has a plan and I hope I didn't offend you. I guess I'm just upset with my ex. He was going to school and working 3 jobs when we got married. Then, he started treating me like a meal ticket. Also, I found out just over the weekend that he probably stole money from a retirement plan I had with my former employer (after our marriage ended). I've started an investigation with law enforcement on that one. Not fun times or warm fuzzy feelings about my ex right now.

Oh, about the age difference in latino culture, it doesn't matter to them here in this country. In South America though, I know for sure that the man is supposed to be older than the woman. I once dated a Bolivian. His mother was scandalized that I was 3 years older than him. She was very traditional and living in Bolivia. I met her when she came to visit.

Where is Israel from?

No you didn't offend me. I know some guys are just looking for a green card and I'll be careful.
