But I'd like to think h's blows to my ego are to be overcome. Must it be by dating? Don't get me wrong, I want to date. And I want intimacy in my life.

Like this year. It's a NYE resolution I made and time is ticking...

But that will be weird. I have not been with a man other than my h, for 37 years. We met when I was 19.

Well, just FYI - I think I had exceptionally good luck but the first guy I dated after my ex was the best sex I ever had in my life! And the men I dated after him were pretty great too. Don't rush into it until you're ready, but don't be too afraid either ( use condoms though!!!!!!).
