sure I would like to have another serious relationship. I miss everything about them. so unless ms right really does exist, I'm just keeping the calendar full, staying busy, concentrating on Me and some goals.
for now, I find Myself another year older and being persued by younger women. it's flattering and I enjoy the dates. but eventually I long for conversations with someone more...life experienced. it's hard for Me to accept that anything meaningfull can develop with a 15-20yr age difference. not a judgement on all younger women of course, just sayin...that's all.

It took me quite a long time after breaking up to even think about dating. In fact it took me about 3 years. The first year you sit back a bit dumbfounded. You wonder what went wrong, you blame yourself even if it wasnt you fault. The second year you place ads, talk to a few people and that can be a major trip! You step back, re-evaluate and proceed with caution. You decide that maybe a forum of a bit of queer networking is in order and to take it one step at a time. By the third year you meet a few people and encounter some BS and drama. It make you really start to miss even the worse relationship.
Isn't that funny because I too have been approached lately by lots of younger boi's. Cute, playful but was thinking the exactly same thing as you. I'm honestly not sure what I want but I know "something" needs to get my interest to fully engage me. I'm too busy for causal nothingness so if I'm going to take the little free time I do have I want to invest it into at least an awesome life long friendship.
So if you're looking for good conversation then here I am. If you can manage a bit of fishing that might be good too.
