Dating in Your 60's

[DonH]

So last night I was home alone after work and - get this - kinda missed him! See, when you give them enough time and space, then the person you are dating has room to miss you!

So true, and pages right out of the DB books! I sooooo remember the early months after meeting my ex wife. She would call me on the phone or show up at my door, often within hours of having talked or saw her and say "did you miss me?" I was like, um no, how could I? Later on I even remember saying to her it felt to me almost like being chased around the house and backed into a corner hearing "do you miss me? Do you miss me? Huh, do you, do you miss me?" It was such a turn off that I nearly ended it with her. Obviously in hindsight I should have. I think MWD describes it as chasing the dog. The more you chase the dog, the more he runs from you. Stop chasing the dog and he often follows you where you go. Not at all calling you the dog in this scenario KML.

It's a very good and valid point though. Of course it requires balance as you also need to build attraction as well. It's also interesting that sometimes when given what we want, we don't want it as much anymore. I'm going to try to address that on my own thread.
