In Response to Re: Just asking: How do you tell someone that is very interested in you that you want to have the opportunity see others without hurting the relationship that you are forming? We are not exclusive yet but I think he wants to be. Some days I am very interested in this person and other days I want to keep my options open. I feel like I am not being truly honest with him. Posted by KathyLambert15 Tell him you really enjoy his company, but that you're just not ready yet to commit. He should be able to understand that. |

In Response to Just asking: [QUOTE]anyone have suggestions on how to 'start again' after a really bad divorce and too many years hiding away from the world? I know you may be a little frightened, but I found love on the internet. I signed up with Senior People Meet and was matched up with some really nice gentlemen. I developed an online relationship with one gent and we became good friends. When we were both comfortable, we met for breakfast, (that took about 3 months). He lived in Grand Rapids and I live in Detroit. He came down, we talked over breakfast and were able to see each other in person for the first time. We started talking more and more often until he started coming to Detroit a couple of times a month. We became an item. After almost three years, we decided to go up North together for a few days to see how we'd do away from the city. He did the driving and I was completely conmfortable with him. We did not have sex. We just had a good time. Now after almost 4 years, we are together permanently. We are making long term plans and have totally committed to each other. A lot of my friends have found love on the internet. You should give it a try. Go with the senior sites and ask for help if you're not computer savvy. |
