Well BA, this hint was even too obvious for me to miss lol. I like that she keeps laying the path for me and I just have to follow it! "You're so cool!" ...when was the last time I heard that...oh yeah, never lol. I told her that I'm off at 4 pm and could meet her any time after that. She's done at 7 pm. She was concerned that I would have to wait around too long for her...I said "Hey, I'm easy. I'll have coffee with a friend, maybe take some photos and then I'll meet you. I'm really looking forward to doing this with you, ok!" she said "that would be so great!" We shall see.
Yes interest on her part seems to be there. If I was you Wii, I think my main concern would be the age difference and if you are at the same stages in your lives.
It's certainly something to be aware of. My last gf was 12 years younger than me. No issues there...but, this is a different person. We'll see. We have a lot in common so far. We're both practicing Adventists, she loves music (sings in the choir with me), likes taking photos, great sense of humour, and and I've just discovered she loves to run (I just bought a pair of running shoes a few weeks ago with the hopes of getting back into running...and losing 20 lbs!). We shall see.
Oops, bump in the road. Hopefully I have smoothed it out...we'll see. We were texting at lunch and she suggested that we invite Agnes and her friend to join us for dinner tomorrow night. She's hoping to sleep at Agnes place tomorrow. I responded that I would prefer that we spend time together and invite them another time. I said "I've been looking forward to us spending time together and chatting because we've never been able to do that. I want to get to know you. Are you ok with that?" She wrote "Sure, why not but don't you chat with Church Lady?" Uh oh. It raises it's ugly head. She had brought up Church lady a number of times recently. I decided to nip this right in the bud. I can also understand her concern about Church Lady as we've all socialized together and I tease Church Lady and she responds etc. Our "friendship" had been mentioned by others too. I wrote "I don't know whether you need or want to know this but I'm gonna tell you right now and clear the air. I have no contact with Church Lady outside of Church. We tease each other and exchange photos of church stuff and that is it. I do not "chat" with her, I have never asked for her phone number or ever asked her out. In fact, I am not even her FB friend. Ask her lol. I chat with you because I want to know you better. OK? We can talk later" She'd already said she couldn't continue texting as she needed to look after the kids. So, we shall see. I figure lets get all the crap out in the open now and see what happens.
AM just called me and she's her old happy self...I guess I succeeded. I told her the arrangements tomorrow night and where I'd meet her and that's that. She's gonna call me after going to the gym...she goes every night OMG!I guess I did good.
My paternal Grand father remarried at around 61 after being a widow for 10 years. She was I believe 27 years younger. They had a child. My uncle is like 15 years younger than me. He lived to be 85. All I remember is that he ate raw garlic lots of it with a glass of Malbec

Rick, it's certainly possible and it depends a lot on the people involved. Tonight I'm going to meet her and we'll have dinner and then head to my friend Agnes' place. AM is going to sleep over there Friday and Saturday night. My plan is to step back and chill a bit here. When a lady suggests that we bring two elderly ladies with us for our first dinner together...um, my caution lights go on. If we're playing house here but there's no furniture...I want to know sooner than later. She phoned me last night from the gym and told me she was going to have dinner with her girlfriends and that she'd call me later. Uh ok. She texted me at 11 pm and we chatted for a bit. So I'm gonna leave things to her and not push anything. My experience says when there's confusion...pay attention to it.
Well, my best friend told me to chill out. He said when she made that comment she had no idea what my R was with Church Lady was and may not have wanted to cause any problems. Oh well, I'm just nervous...so tonight we will enjoy each others company and who knows from there. Bye for now Dbers.
