Ok, i hate to be a stick-in-the-mud as the love train leaves the station but this is a forum for us to say what we think...toss it in the trash if you like. I am so happy that you have found someone who seems to mesh so well with you...honest, I am! But when I read how quickly and all encompassing he seems to be...I feel overwhelmed and don't even know him! That said, my shrink once said that getting really involved quickly does not seem to be an issue when two people are on the same wave length but it's when one is jumping in with both feet and the other is still sticking his/her toe in the water that it becomes a problem. So, I'm on your side and pulling for you G, but also feel a bit taken aback by his speed and excessive enthusiasm...maybe that's just me. Btw, I hope you take this opportunity to discuss ageism with your daughter...it's connection, not age that matters Keep us updated.
I understand where you are coming from. I do not feel like he is excessive at all. I think he is just that kind of guy. Remember, he is single and not tied down, so he can spend some more time with me. He works every 4th day. Excessive enthusiasm would normally scare me away, but its not, so I don't think it's excessive. We were just talking open and honestly and it was refreshing to have a conversation where someone isn't trying to toally deny their feelings.
And don't you worry, We had a very good convo about ageism. I said it's about how you treat and respect eachother and age doesn't decide that.
Keep us updated.
