There is no pattern with me. I was married from 18 years old to 40 odd, and blissfully happy with two wonderful children, but I was too young, much younger than my ex. No blame, just age and growing apart.
Later, fabulous short term relationships, good, but no committment on either side. Later still, a serious relationship for a couple of years which failed because of his insane jealousy. Something I has never encountered before.
My first love is whar I want to find again, but is it possible? I was only 16 when I met my ex husband, I doubt very much that this love can be found again.
A first date is an effort of some sorts though T, don´t you think? We all want to make a pleasing first impression. The same as if I were to attend a job interview, well not quite the same, but you know what I mean.
I was thinking about this recently. Imagine travelling to some far off place to meet somebody and arriving, after many hours,or a couple of flight changes looking like a wreck!
British cuisine is wonderful these days. Bad food is just a negative, stereotypical observation. If you know where to eat in Britain you will be amazed.
Having said that, I´m a Med woman now, and I adore the food here in Spain.
