Oh, my

On January 14, 2004, I wrote to Len:

"I've been hesitant to tell you my exact age because I worried over your reaction. Steady yourself, man! Today I am 43. Ah, there, I said it. Are you afraid? When I was eight years old, I watched the TV, fascinated, as men walked on the moon. When I was 25, I wept over the lost Challenger astronauts. My first vote was cast for Jimmy Carter."

Len's reply:

"You put down any worry you may have about your age in regards to me. :) (ie,... your not gonna scare me away that easily *grin*) I had gracefully skipped around the age question, because a gentleman does not ask a lady her age. :)

First off, 43 isn't a big scary number to me, regardless of all the social stigma that seems to go with being in ones 40's, or falling in love with someone not of your immediate age group.

Personally, I happen to have quite a strong attraction for women older than I. I was terrified that I might be too young... And I have to admit that I was steeling myself for a shattered heart on that one. Just goes to show we do think a lot alike."
