Cupid is dead, deceased, no more, an antiquity, gone.


Okay, I can accept that Cupid is dead but can we collect on the insurance policy? I mean after all, isn't this misrepresentation i.e. dying without leaving us anything i.e. romance / courtship / happily ever after?

[in his best Pepe LePeuw french accent] Oh... My leetle turtledoves, romance is not dead. Come with me to Algiers, the city of white, and we will dine on the rooftop in the gentle Mediterranean breeze. We weel fly through the desert at night under the golden light of the moon on the wings of love. "Rooow...Rooow... Le Rooow,Rooow".

There is ONE girl for me still out there who believes in the exact same thing.
I am determined to find her or bust.

He said he did. And I certainly felt it likely as soon's his first letter. We did manage the long slow pavane of Courtship and Romance, and I believe we were both correct. . . . And it's been more than lovely getting to where we are right now.

Keep the faith, kiddles!

Awwww, congratulations to both of you.

First email did it for me too. And it couldn't have been 'surface' attraction because he didn't have a pic on his profile and is kind of technologically challenged (truth hurts but I love you anyway, hun ;-) so couldn't even email a pic until his neighbor helped him out. I'm very much enjoying being courted (and likewise in return) as well as learning more and more about him, and about us.

I think a key difference with this man, this relationship, is that I feel safe and secure with him. I can relax. After some of the 'special' men I've dated over the past few years, this is quite a treat. I wouldn't waste a good scotch doing shooters; this man I want to inhale, roll across my tongue, and savor. mmmmmmm

~OT~ I recently met someone and he's living proof that romance/courtship are definitely alive and well. It isn't so much what he did/does, it's just who he is. He's not over-the-top on mushiness or showy things ~ but he just emulates "gentleman." It so nice to be around someone like that. I feel really lucky.

Men in their 60's and up have a good attitude when it comes to dating and old fashioned romance.
