PW and I met for the first time with romantic intent a year ago this past weekend. We had met at a widow/widower dinner, chatted back and forth via messages online, talked on the phone, and finally decided to get together in person to explore our growing feelings of love.
I remember being a nervous wreck during the almost 4-hour drive to where she lived. I worried that she'd see me and that I'd look older than she remembered or something like that and give me a polite heave-ho!
Instead we clicked and decided to see as much of each other as could be managed considering we lived 240 miles away from each other. I spent many hours on the phone with her and then gladly jumped into my car on Friday afternoon to drive back out that way to see her again.
