How do you meet someone?

Suzy, you are 45? you do not look it AT ALL. Use that to your advantage. 40 is your age range..... 5 year difference is nothing. My ex SIL is going ot be 32, she is looking at engagements rings with her 25 year old live in boyfriend! Great guy he seems, mature, caring, good with kids (he loves Gabby and vice versa.

Thanks Gineen....some days I feel younger, some days I feel older! LOL It all depends on how much sleep I get! I don't think 5 years is too big of a deal eithr, as long as they don't want to get married right away and don't want to have kids!

I guess I am a little nervous too, because I was with douchebag for so long, I have no clue what its like ot have a mature respectful R. Hopefully I don't mess it up someone when i start to date a real man! Oh boy, this really all scares me!

I totally know how you feel about that. I was talking to a guy friend and said that I was hesitant to be in a relationship becausse i don't know if I could ever let anyone have that much control over me ever again....he reminded me that in a fuctional relationship there aren't control issues! It is going to be hard for me to keep that in mind and not think the worst!
