I am just no sure I would not see this guy. I see no reason why not. If he has asked you, he shows interest. Some guys are just very shy, he might be the type who warms up very slowly, just look at as an adventure getting to know another person, besides you never know down the road. If you have so much in common with a person I would always give it a go atleast as friends, otherwise you will always think I should have. Come go and see him, be a friend to him maybe more will come, but nothing will happen if you don’t do it.

I posted because dating is a new thing for me. I needed help from others is why I wrote. I don’t want to repeat my past men experiences. I learn a lot from them!!!

There have been times in my life where I just said: “Bring on the Pain I can Deal with It!

Bless you all!
Dyan………Thank-you Marina!

Funny thing is… we all have suffered in some forms or fashion. Some of us have suffered more than the others but in the end, what do you make out of it? Do you come out stronger from it?

I think it’s so important to realize that… we suffer… so we can really learn to appreciate the good in our life.

Suffering is not a bad thing… it’s really an opportunity, it’s a reminder for us to appreciate better all the good things we already have.

Don’t keep for yourself next time you might have something you struggle with. Without knowing it you might helped some one else in their search for clarity. Besides was it not wonderful someone was there to respond and help you with your daily pain.

Great stuff you make.

Like I mentioned above I have never met a man like this man in my entire life. That is what thou me for a loop!
It is most difficult to explain this in words.

In my search to figure out how two long marriages failed…I discovered both men were “Needy” and without me realizing I became a caretaker…an enabler.

I now stay very aware and stay away from guys who want to be joined at the hip. Men who bring up their abusive child hood and so on. Meeting parents their also can give a big clue of who they are.

I am a person that goes with the flow. So this will be easy for me.

I did learn a great tool while writing on this site. Next time… I have a major question and situation I am going to write the same words but not send them to a site.

While calling out for help because I was so confused and needed someone to answer back…I re read my long posts that I sent to this site. After reading them a couple of times I answered some of my own questions.

Thank-you for your kind words…I only do commission work or a one person showing in top US galleries. I do however teach classes here at my farm and studio.

You were the only person on this earth that responded to my cry for help. I want to thank-you from the bottom of my heart!!!!! You saved me from daily pain and further pain.

Dyan…who will never forget you!

PS….Never judge a book my its cover….Yes, I am a character…a fun and loving one!

Probably…but it is awfully hard to keep the same one for ever:-)

o>>>>Wuld this be a healthy relationship?

There is no way to know before hand, you got to give it time. Maybe the chemistry does not last or fades away…lower your expectations and go with the flow and just let things happen without pre expectations and prejudices from prior relationships.

Love your art work! Ever make it to the Ann Arbor Art Fairs?

Your comment about me living alone for 3 years would be scary for a lot of men is “not” correct. After 2 marriages that total 37 years of my life. Then adding 3 years of living together first totals 40 years of my life.
I felt the need to figure out why these marriages failed and Most of All to Live along to find out who I am. I did find myself. I learned that I am a very happy person and I could live a lone just find.

I don’t know if too many people could do that. Meaning I choose to stay here on my farm and not socialize with the outside world. Plus, I choose not to ever watch TV. I also found out that humans were meant to have a partner in life.

I live in a mountain town….the populations is mainly artists. We need peace and quite to produce our work. Our environment is also important.. we are surrounded by trees and wild life which is very stimulating.

This dating thing is all new to me. It is like being in my 20′s again. “Thanks to David and you Dan” I have learned a lot! I now believe there is no age difference when it comes to finding a man or a women to love.

All the same situations of dating has no age boundaries or too many differences.

Your welcome to see some of my work and a photo of me at http://www.thedecoratedgourd.com I have been an artist all my life…that is my calling. I was given a gift to create… I am self taught. I give and share my gifts with others so when I give my creativity away I am filled back up again with even more to give.

Thanks again….
Dyan Mai, Diane Mai) Who is now going with her gut instincts…too much work and pain on my end no matter how incredible the chemistry is.

A question I have is: When you find a person.. where the chemistry is like you have never felt in your life time….meaning this man is a “Mirror image of myself” Would this be a healthy relationship? This is a very weird experience for me.
Thank-you for any replies!!!!

Thanks for replying : – )

>>>>>>>I’m 61 and have been living alone up in the mountains for over 3 years now.

This website sure attracts some characters!!!!!

>>>>>>>In the last 6 months I have had the desire to meet someone for whom I could spent the rest of my life with.

Well, that is sure scary for a lot of men, especially one that had a 19 yr relationship that ended badly! Why don’t you go for the 3 day weekend and go with the flow and enjoy it and the chips will fall where they fall.

At the end of the day, you got to go with your gut.

Personally, I think this guy will be too much work, not worth it. fyi….but go with your gut and enjoy the sex in the woods, how romantic:-)
