We do "see" something in each other, I think, that makes a connection. I would call it purity of spirit and purpose, and willing to work toward what we might become, both in the "outer" world and the "inner". Does this sound true for you?
Please tell me what kind of way you have that we can talk and see each other over internet. I have Skype, but there are other services like Microsoft live and??? other ones....
And same for you, if somebody shows up and you feel more appropriate you, both in age and spirit, please follow it up. As for me, I would stop looking right now except for this awful feeling that you might not end up with a life-partner but a load on your already hard working life. If I felt HEALTHY at my age, I would be much more confident of relationship. But that is not so, and you must know all the difficulties as well as the "good" qualities and basic kind of understanding each other.
Mike wish you another happy day, or if day not all happy then happy moments in the day. They are where you find them!
