Well look at that, as I suggested at the start, I might help some other reader here. Hopefully I did and there will be more. I still have confidence in at least a few light bulbs starting to glow for East as well.

Your comment on the age gap was also something I noticed but did not include in my comments. But, yes, at least in some cases this fits the rest of the picture - just not all cases. In East's case, he was dating a 25 year old at 36. That's a large gap - especially at those ages. The maturity aspect again comes into play - for both parties. The average 25 yr/o is just in such a different place than the average 36. I'd be curious in knowing how old the new GF is?
