We do things in life because we are looking to fill some need...
Lets say that you are lonely (in THAT way)... it would make perfect sense that you would pursue someone whom was filling those needs for you...
So the question isn't whether you are lonely... the question is, what needs are driving you to FEEL lonely? What is the deeper need within you, that is creating this scenario for you?
Is it connection with others?
Yes, that has a lot to do with it. We connected in a way that I haven't felt in so long. This is what I miss the most and want so desperately.

Not in the slightest. That doesn't matter to me as much. I had my fun right after I got divorced. Not looking for that anymore

Hmmmm..Maybe, but that ties into the connection. It was there. It was real. Just bad timing.

Is it a desire to break the monotony of an otherwise independent life?
I don't know about that exactly, but I am lonely. It was great playing "house" with her (she stayed with me most weekends and some weekdays...even brought her dog over which I miss just as much)

Thanks for responding. This place is such a blessing. I doubt I will ever leave here.
