I too am 49 and have many of the same thoughts as you. I was married for 23 years to a serial adulterer and tried to work through that issue for many many years to no avail. My kids, family and friends are all repeatedly stunned to find out how my ex really behaves now that he is untethered from me. And, I too realize I am partially to blame for our failed marriage. I too have kissed lots of frogs and found myself pursuing the wrong things-- I am very attracted to "successful, attractive" men. However, I am very optimistic about my journey and evolution... those characteristics (successful and attractive) are becoming seconds to character, integrity and spirituality for myself and a partner. That is why I am very optimistic-- there is so much goodness in this world and people I meet that I am giddy thinking of it. Call me pollyanna-- there are worse things. So, Marie, I say try another outlook -- you choose to be happy; Who wants to be around a grump? That too has been part of my learning. All the best. call it depression, call it anger, or bitterness– in any description what you sadly lack is optimism and lacking optimism is a downward slide to emptiness.

I met someone that I am seeing now - he's 51 I'm 48. There is definitely something between the souls as we get older and we both sense this ourselves. We have been seeing each other for three months now and every kiss is like our first kiss (this happened on Christmas - the best Christmas present I have ever received). We both think about each other 24-7. I'll pick up the phone to call and he's on the other end. I can see spending the rest of my life with him - it's for both of us "where have you been my whole life" only the thing with that is we had to live life and make mistakes before God allowed us to meet each other. We lived at the same apartment complex and knew each other casually for about a year before we got together but, in retrospect, I can see the destiny aspect and how we were drawn to each other. He always seemed special to me before I fell head over heels. Wonderful things can and do happen - we have to open our hearts and minds and close the door on all the hurts of the past. When we do that and we are not looking for love, it really does happen. I feel as if I am a teenager in love for the first time only with all the wisdom I have gleened through the years.
