Thanks D, just got home from meeting them up at school and walking them in their classrooms. My 5th grader walked in like a boss, she is VP for student council so she was all excited about that. My 3rd grader was nervous, teared up and didn’t want us to leave.
I am glad I have stuck it out with the dr. and resisted the self sabotage urges. The hardest part for me has been getting comfortable knowing that I have not really had the chance to date around a ton. I think I went out with around 15 different women and probably interacted with 30 or so over roughly 6 months.
I think I have a good idea of what is out there and truthfully, at our age, I don’t believe the perfect person exsists. Everyone has some baggage, we all don’t like we did in our 20s, and you are really trying to meshtwo lives together that have already been built. It’s not like you are building a life together as we did when we were young, in college, and had no kids. So I think compatibility is huge! Obviously there has to be some attraction but it’s certainly not the most important thing.
We see each other 2 to 3 times per week and just try to take it day by day.
