Dreamyone: Ok, I meet the man of my dreams, he is overseas and will be back in June. I understand he is busy but 2 days and I haven't heard from him. I usually hear from him everyday.
I have spent the last day wondering if I do love him. There is no one else, for me anyway.
He has a very demanding and time consuming job. he is retiring when he gets home this time and I have decided to retire, too.
We both agreed that I would. I travel to disaster areas as part of my job and am gone sometimes for months, and since he is retiring I want to too. We can afford it.
Now I am wondering if I am doing the right thing. I was married once before for 35 years and it was a very bad marriage from the get go. he is a widower. all of our children are grown. I am rambling.
I am scared to death
any advice?

Hiya hun
Can only say exactly what i have just said on my previous post to the young lady in Australia. He may have family problems & i would advise give him a few days & try again. If a family member or pet has become really ill ( or worse ) that could be the reason
Have a nice weekend

Just it, I have no idea. I don't know if I am imagining it, or the feeling is gone.
Jesus, I was married forever and never thought I would go through this again. Some times I think I am too old

Thank you labrat! me too.
I am hoping it's just me. My first was a 35 year nightmare and I try to keep it separate but maybe not.

I think after bad experiences, marital or whatever, it can tend to skew our view on future prospects.
We can forget that there are lots of amazing opportunites, and people, out there and things can change and be different and be just what we're looking for

Are you sure you're not trying to do too many things at once? Marriage and both retiring at the same time?
Sounds like you're putting a lot of pressure on yourselves and that may impact on the relationship.
Taking things more slowly will allow you to evolve and adapt so much better.

well he has gone almost as far as he can and is ready to retire. I have semi retired and took a leave of absence for the last year. I honestly don't want to go back in this time in history. and what he does, he needs to get out too.
Both of us have more than served humanity and the need to just stop is there. I was really burned out and I don't think I would be as effective as I would need to be.
But you sure made a good point. I just got off the phone with him and he made my tears go away and smile so, I think we will be ok.
I am just over whelmed I think, maybe!
