Till I was maybe 40, I looked for romance in the usual ways. It was nothing but thrill seeking, and I now know that I wasted a lot of years in that. That instant spark, the hunt, the daydreams... all were part of it.
I found the true romance of my life after coming full circle three years ago - at home. I'd discovered that romance is really unconditional acceptance flavored with a very high comfort level. And yes, only my wife could give me that. Can you imagine how deflated I felt when I found out that I'd been looking in all the wrong places?

At least you realized and went through the process. That itself must have been a great learning experience.

Yes. What bothered me the most was the immense amount of time I'd wasted. And the fruitless, aimless running around. I will not get those years back now, but it is funny somehow. Well, never mind - what about you, young lady? Have you had any luck so far?
