I was married for 32 years....got married young, raised 2 children, then stuff happened, kind of grew apart, then she decided that she wanted out. I got divorced at the age of 54 and was kind of lost for a while. Got into a relationship with at woman 10 years younger, took off like a rocket, then crashed like one about a year later. Enjoyed going out, traveling, just dating. Nothing went very far because they always found something with me they tried to change....not happening. Then I met a woman close to my age that I was very compatible with and liked to do things with me and most important......LET ME BE ME!!!!! Exactly as I am, no changes. We have been together now for 2+ years and when I broached the idea of buying my ragtop, all she said was GO FOR IT!! So I did! Neither of us want to be married again (she was married before also) because we are afraid it will screw things up. You know what she tells people? That we are Free-together.....I love that statement.

I gave up one night stands and a considerable amount of bar time when I met her, but now she goes out with me. She has learned about car shows and fishing and lots of baseball with me. And if I go to a ballgame alone, she just says 'have fun, see ya later on'. She is sooooo cool.

Good luck to you, I hope you do well.
