That's a terrific story. Across the street meant that you could really get to know each other and date before having to move half way across the country etc. :biggrin0: Lucky girl you are!

It is sometimes funny how people meet. My brother and his wife grew up in the same area, lived twenty minutes apart their whole lives and never ran into each other. Instead, how did they meet? They both took jobs in Saudi Arabia and met there. I guess if you are meant to be with someone, you will meet them, somehow, some way, somewhere.

Hi Lee

Yes isn't that just a great story!! I lived in one apartment complex and he lived in the one across the street. We gave up my apartment, after a while! Then we gave up his and we bought a home. Still love him!

Great idea! Being single at 54 definitely has its challenges. I've had one date in the last 3 years with someone I met on eharmony. His profile said that he was a "maintenance engineer"...Turned out that he plucked chickens for a living. Not only that, he was missing most of his teeth. Unfortunately, he thought "the chemistry was there." This was one time I didn't have any trouble being assertive.

That is funny. I knew right away you were from Lake City as that is where I am from. I live in Valdosta, and we are very similar to Lake City.

Congratulations on your weight loss.

I had some bad experiences with people not looking like their pictures. I met one with no teeth as well. He was smiling with him mouth closed in his picture. I also met one who got really drunk when we went to dinner and then called me afterwards and was very degrading on the phone.

Fortunately, I have also met some very nice guys online too, including the one I am seeing now!

I met someone else through eharmony. We never got to the date stage...This guy said he was a photographer. A few pertinent questions revealed that he really wanted to be a photographer, but after driving around the country (unemployed) taking pictures, he had only two photographs that he actually liked. Man...I guess I'm just too picky. LOL

Katt, I'm surprised. Perhaps you have the wrong settings on eHarmony. That site has produced numerous leads, most of whom I rejected because of personal considerations, though they were remarkable women.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
