Devvo, good to see an update. Our timeline is almost identical ... and our stories are very, very similar.
I also have not officially dated at all. I dunno Devvo, I've also been saying a lot lately that maybe this is it for me. Maybe love is something that won't happen for me again. It also takes a pretty rare guy to capture my interest. Haven't met him yet. Not really searching, as I have so very much on my plate right now there no real space in my life to put my attention into a relationship. That's the only thing that gives me hope that there may still be time for a relationship for me down the road.
Your post made me think about it and yes, I too have been on my own now longer than ever before, and as someone who had no siblings I'm a little too comfortable with it, maybe. Anyway, these are the same questions I ask myself from time to time, so I get it.
Cats are great. Love my dog, love my kitty too. You'll have fun with a furry friend. good to "see" you! xo
