I know what you mean Barb. Actually, it was four weeks ago and she's been sick the last few weeks. She did say last week, and actually the week before, that she wanted to kiss me but didn't want to get me sick again. But there really is affection oozing out between us when we're together, that's why I'm feeling so relaxed here. Again, she comes from a culture where kissing etc is down the line not like it is in North America. The snuggling, hugging, kissing on the cheek etc that she does is probably way over the line in her mind. Now, to her credit she told me she wanted me to tell her how things are done here because she doesn't know. She said when her friend put her on the dating site her first question was "what if the men want to kiss me or hold my hand, what should I do?" So, only time will tell but I'm quite happy right now. She's an incredible lady...and she's damn lucky to have me too! And btw, she also tells me how lucky she feels, that's nice.
