potential date.... ummmm I don't think so. Potential being the key word there.

omg it's spreading...when will it stop

I am surprised by the responses.

It seems like I get what I feel are very intrusive questions from people on line. As if going out on a date is some huge deal that I have to qualify for.

Perhaps it is the age difference or that my stated desire is to have marriage as a very long term goal but I am amazed how many people make a coffee date feel more like a police investgation. Or prequalifying for a morgage.

Since I am self sustaining and my children grown and independent for a long time I found it rather surpriseing.
