"Peter Pan" and I met nearly 3 years ago. Nothing happened. We both had lots of barriers and complicated pasts so there was no way forward. But with the opportunity of FSO to keep contact at a level where we could chat we checked in over the next 6 weeks . Neither of us thought this was anything special. After several weeks, without going into any detail, another Friday rolled along where we were looking deeply at navel-gazing, so I said come along to a works drink thing.

Well, it was all quite tentative but a pizza, a picnic ... we were on the move. And time has definitely moved on. We have something really solid and are now living together. There is a future and on a regular basis we feel blessed that we have this really neat thing and we are soooo lucky.

We are 49 and 51 ... so not over the hill, still growing. And this all started from FSO. Both have met a bunch of neat FSO people and some are still our friends. We are over the FSO times but think that this is the best way to go. Don't be lonely (no need), you are not a loser (life can suck) and take the time. YAY!!
