Laureen, 69

I didn't write any of the following in brackets... [I'm a widow and was a good wife. But always felt used. Not by my partner but by circumstance. I want a partner/friend that can share intimacy and life. Fun and adventure. Love of life and reverence for the Almighty.]
NOW, what is true is I am a widow and I was a good wife. At no time have I felt used. In fact my kids would lay back laughing, saying, " I dare you". That would be my son. My daughter, now she would just give you one of 'those' looks and say, "Really, REALLY? Or are you just stupid"? I was married to a prince of a man. Never wanted for anything. You might even say I was spoiled. BUT, never unappreciative. (I was once complimented by my first husband, when he told my Mother, after the divorce, that being with me had been like being with a harem. I was never the same woman twice. He grew up too late.
