Dear lovely woman. You had a wonderful marraige and it sounds as though your starting to fall in love again. Really? some of us could only hope to fall in love again. I finally did after 11 years of being divorced. I hope you do too! I don't think you need any advice on your letter except that you shouldn't waste any more precious time writing us just see where things go. You have a lot of love to give and need to give it. He sounds loving and assuredly adores you. Run with it and see what romance leads you too. It's normal to be scared but you are not crazy so tell him to come over for some tea and a bit of cookie. What if he's handsome or rich or just a wonderful friend. You will not lose anything unless you tell him NO. Friendship is hard to find nowdays and I'm glad you found 1. I still wouldn't kiss him the first night though. Good Luck, Sincerely Ed
