I have some of the same questions as ReineD does. I also like what Presh said. If feelings grow and the chemistry, trust and appreciation for you is there, she may end up accepting you for you...all of you. Funny how love can do that for us.

Ok, time to give all of u some more info to think about!
Very incisive post, Brandy! I purposely haven't posted much info, because I didn't want to inject MY opinions of what she's thinking in here YET! Or my thots/feelings, for that matter. Also, I wasn't sure WHERE this thread would go. Or, even where I wanted it to go! Here's what else she said in our last discussion:
"I thot about researching about CDs on line. But then, I'm not really that interested in knowing more about them/it. Everyone our age has their issues, I guess that's just one of yours!"
Ok, u r really pinning me down here, Reine! Finally ASKING me what I think, rather than speculating on what me and my GG friend think!
Yes, I'm attracted to her. But, on my scale of 1 to 10, I'd say about a 5. We've fooled around enuff for me to think that neither of us will see stars and rainbows if we sleep together. I don't see her as a long term GF. However, I've been WRONG about such things before! In BOTH directions, way better and way worse.
And, your LAST point is my worst CD nitemare! A date asking what I get out of dressing and/or wanting to see pics of Sherry! I imagine that would be the kiss of death, after seeing the response of my old college girlfriend who's carried a candle for me ever since then. She finally blew me off after seeing pics of Sherry!
U may be rite, Presh! I think she would have liked to see me last weekend. But, I was working and dressing. And, I told her so.
Here's something she's said a number of times: "I could tell u weren't emotionally available rite away." She said that for the first time rite after I told her about my dressing and she repeated it on the phone recently. She added, "Because you're still dealing with your ex and your daughter". And, now she knows I also have a secret life! I don't know if she's rite or wrong. Maybe rite as for my feelings for her? But, what did she mean by that?
She mite mean many things by that remark. I haven't asked her why she thinks/says that because I guess I'm not ready to find out where she stands if I WERE "available"!
I enjoy her company. But, she's a woman of few words. Not a great conversationalist. That's not so good when I'm not sure what she means. And, she tends to repeat things over and over!
I guess I'll keep seeing her unless I find someone whose company I like better. Hey! I never said I was a, "Nice guy". She's the one that keeps saying that. I've warned her that maybe I'm NOT! I try to be as honest as possible with dates. And, I am with her. If I start seriously dating someone else, I'll tell her. However unlikely that scenario is!
Yea, move her into the <maybe pile. She sounds like she thinks your CD stuff might interfere with her boring droning. If you do decide to stop dressing, wait till after post 8000.
So, how'd you meet her, Doc?
Sherry
Why don't you ask her " what do you mean ? "
when she says something that could be taken more ways than one ?
And like Reine I want to know too,How did you meet her ?
Presh
I think I answered your question as well as I can already, Presh. Maybe I thot we were falling into a "friends" relationship. I've NEVER had a meaningful "friends" relationship with a GG unless it was also physical in some way. I thot maybe telling her about my dressing mite stir the pot for both of us! Or, maybe it would not. "Not" meaning in MY experience, we'll probably drift apart. Because I don't think we have enuff interests in common, or care enuff for each other to become "habit forming"!
But, at this point, I really don't know.
I don't meet many new people thru my work. I don't hang out in bars or coffee stores. Don't drink much of either. So, WHERE am I going to meet women? Online, of course!
