Though inviting me to meet her whole family must have a little meaning!
Jeff - she was showing you off to her family!
It would seem that way! It's been a while since anyone has ever done that! Even so, she is still being very cautious. I don't know her whole story, but I rather expect there is a reason!
(((((Kalni))))) I guess it's been about six weeks since I started "dating". I've met four women that I haven't seen again (though one I would like to, if it happens), and the one that I have seen several times, met her just before I went on my trip.
Mind me asking Jeff, if you still have any hope of R with your W?
Glad you`re having fun AND that the kids seem to be doing fine. A little bit of suffering(as in S21`s position) does them no harm either. And so good for them to know they can always call on Dad.
S21 is fine, and it sounds like the insurance adjuster saw the car yesterday and made an estimate. It seems that everything is going smoothly. And he's talking about enrolling at the community college enough to be a full time student, to get back on my health insurance! It's all good!
(((((Fallgirl)))))
No, I realy don't have any hope of my R with W. I'm not sure I would be able to trust her... if that makes sense. But, if there is one thing I have learned in 48 years, it's never say never. Not holding my breath, though!
I was going to wait and talk with you about this tonight but I think it is better that I save you the trip and the expense of taking me out to dinner.
I wish it were very different but I don't think that the chemistry is there between us. I know how difficult a situation that was for you with your wife and you deserve to have a woman that is passionate about you.
I also think that I shouldn't have started dating at all. I was so close to my goals as far as health and my running and I guess I am just one of those people that has to put my all in to something or I don't get it done.
You are a great guy and I think you deserve something much more.
I appreciate the time you have taken with me and I wish you nothing but the best. I have no doubt that you will find the perfect person. Thank you for the time you have spent with me.

I did text her later, and said that I would still like to have dinner, and give her and her cats (they are really nice) a proper goodbye. She asked if next week would be ok. I'm good with that, though I imagine it might not happen.
Jeff - Oh well, it happens. I got a similar one last week from one gal - I was too young looking and full of youthful energy (I'm 49 and she is 46). Just stay in the buffet line, enjoy and learn, and eventually the right one will happen along.
Funny thing...I was getting my teeth cleaned on Monday and the dental hygenist asked me how my girlfriend and I were getting along. I told her that I had to put an end to it and that I was back to sampling the buffet. She laughed and called out to the doctor - "doctor, can I have permission to kill a patient?"
Actually, I was a little relieved (though still disappointed). I was afraid that I would have to do the same thing, I just wasn't ready to do it yet. We get along well enough that I was ready to wait a while to see if there was a slow building fire, rather than instant fireworks.
Hey Jeff! Just checking in on my favorite Arizonian--or is it Arizonite??
We are on the opposite end of the weather spectrum, we have had one of the top 5 coolest Julys in recorded history for the Omaha area...helps with the A/C bill! However mid-70s to mid-80s with periodic rain = lots of mowing...
Sorry about the "dear jeff" message. However it sounds like you had some of the same underlying feelings and were just waiting to see what developed.
Enjoy the buffet line! There is some new show coming out called "HoliDate" (instead of Holiday) where two people swap hometowns to go on dates with each other's friends/family/coworkers. Maybe you and Kerry could trade places??
