those types of relationship imply emotional commitment, love between two people. Agree about the 'lover' component as being very much included in such a relationship.
But the LTL kind, is generally devoid of the above ingredients. For some, that's fine, but not what I am after.
When in K/L on returning from O/S, I purchased a Sony handicam. I intend to turn it on, and just let my father talk. He has so many fabulous stories of his youth, during the war, being captured by the Germans, being shot at, escaping...
Actually, X, I had a local guy from this site offer me this discreet long term lover bit, with all the 'spoiling' that comes with it. I told him to take a hike. So you see, it's not just that 'other' site.
Thanks. No, I am not curious about where such a relationship would go. It is clear. Though I have a friend soon to return from Greece. She might be interested.
It is not the first such to come my way, or for most us women. I have already known a man that would have been very happy to have me as a long term lover, while his wife lived overseas, and he remained interstate. We had been friends. When he spoke in those terms, I was disgusted and ditched our long term friendship.
I agree with you, X. Don't worry. I am aware that if they want to get people to re subscribe, these sites have to try and entice.
Having said this, I did catch up with 2 men from that site. One was local, and quite ok over a coffee, and we had real estate investment interest in common. It was good because straight after I went shopping at the seaside suburb!
The other one I caught up with in Melbourne when I went to visit my brother. again, I caught up for a coffee. He was the quantum physicist I have spoke about. Didn't want to have anything further with him, but I do miss the intellect chats we had online.
Anyway, fear not. I do find these things fascinating.
Money, remember? Can't recall exact minimum, but...do I want to pay just so I can open up his email and read whatever gaff he has written? I wouldn't even have to reply though.
