For her the attraction was my stability, I was level-headed, strong, and in control; for me it was her spontaneity and creativity...and red hair...I'm a sucker for redheads....must be a Scottish thing...LOL.
She had reason to think that I wasn't as stable as I seemed (not totally unwarranted) and after a couple of life events she lost much of that free-spiritedness. It was like we were both victims of false advertising, though not intentional.
I think this journey for both of us has been about finding our old selves and hopefully finding what attracted us to each other.
"Becoming a man only a fool would leave" has been my sole focus. I need to be a man that I can respect; I wasn't that for a long time. I'm actually grateful that this whole sitch happened, as painful as it's been. It's what I needed. It seems to be paying off. I see little things from her, bits and pieces.
Whether she decides to be a fool or not is up to her.
