One door opens...

[minkerman]

"Those feelings" are important, but they are near the bottom of the list in importance compared to so many other things.

How about:
- intellectual compatibility - are you way smarter (or way dumber) than her?
- emotional compatibility - have you been through hard times with her to see how each of you react?
- finances - is she way richer, or way poorer than you? Red flag.
- why is SHE getting divorced?
- spritual compatibility - are either one of you religious and the other one not? Or different religions?
- do you know, beyond a doubt, that each of you would walk through fire for the other?

Have you had heart to heart talks on the above?

If the answer is "yes", that you are fairly compatible on the above, or at least can disagree without jeopardizing the relationship, then "chemistry" becomes important.

But basing a relationship on chemistry or butterflies in the stomach, or thinking she's the hottest piece you've ever had, is doomed to failure.

Take it slow, easy and smart. THERE IS NO RUSH.
