Luvless, You hit the nail on the head. 27 years of disconnect and then I was faced with the question of whether or not I was ready to really commit to this marriage. And it was still hard. I still felt pulled by the idea that I could have the excitement of new love again. But after committing to this relationship, after all that time, I did find that there is something special about a longterm relationship. The kids have all reached maturity now and we no longer struggle with teenage angst. We are proud of all that we have achieved in, what is now, 30 years together. That is something that I would have missed otherwise.
