MY FIRST DATE IN 9 YEARS
Hello Ladies, yes its true I had my first date in 9 years yesterday, here are the edited highlights;
-we drank tea in the museum and walked down to the Pier head
-I learnt the following fun facts; he is 18 years older then me (I had no idea, I thought it was 12 max), he is literally old enough to be my father, he has 3 kids aged 25, 19 and 15 that he has raised mostly alone, he used to be a gangsta ( well the Liverpool equivalent), now he is a counsellor for imprisoned youth and works part time in a notorious local irish bar, he has grandson who is 9 months old. He is working on opening some supported housing for just released young offenders and is buying his daughter a car.
-he has just started smoking again after quitting for 5 years
- he is not much taller then me with dark hair and eyes, he is what my NANA would call Blackirish like the spanish/italian looking irish with black hair and eyes whereas I am the pale, blue eyed type
-he dresses like a casual which was like a late seventies, early eighties UK trend that involves being smart and wearing trainees and old school addidas tops and jeans.
-he is really scouse and from St Andrews gardens which used to be a real notorious slum and has like seperate slang in liverpool.
- he is famous across Liverpool for surviving an 80 foot drop onto a train track when he was a kid
-he said to me
" your eyes have an innocense that I find attractive"
I usually get, nice tits, this was much better!
What do people think, can an 18 year gap work? The only question I have to answer right now is do I want to see him again and thats a yes, He's taking me to the squirrel woods!
thanks for reading

and you don't notice it, then I say yes! Sounds like you had fun!
how exciting! I'm so glad your date went well. and the age difference? pffffft! my folks are 25 years apart and celebrate their 41st wedding anniversary this year. you never know! 
it's their marriage, not mine. I have a lot of mixed feelings about it, as I suspect for many years they stayed together to 'prove everyone wrong'...in addition to the age difference, my mom is my dad's 5th wife, and he had grown and near grown children and small children, who my mother subsequently raised (imagine entering a marriage taking on 7 kids, then having 4 of your own), and he had an extended family that was basically, well, to put it nicely, interesting. My mother came with her own baggage as well, though much of it was hidden and not as obvious and in-your-face as my da's. Hers included a massive father complex (her father basically vanished when her parents divorced when she was a small child) among other things.
Still, they are in a good place now, and it has been neat for me to see them fall back in love repeatedly over the years. and my mother has finally 'grown up' in the relationship, she speaks up for herself and doesn't let my da boss her around anymore. I like how he treats her now, he is very appreciative of who she is as a woman, as a person. 'course the cynical side of me thinks well now he is in his mid-80s and starting to become elderly (though he is still a quite fit and dashing man) so he needs her to take care of him, but I truly thinks it's the mellowing of years and the gradual and deep aging of their love. He truly loves her, and she truly loves him. It's a beautiful thing to see and be a product of. 
No biggie on the age thing. My parents were 34 years apart and had a good relationship - okay, so it was kinda wrecked by the fact that my dad died 15 years into the marriage but that was due more to the fact that he was a heavy smoker and got emphesyma more than anything else! I think if you want to see him again, then that's your answer.
Any case, you don't (and prolly shouldn't) have to decide the entirety of your future relationship with the guy after one date! 
Although that's *totally* what I do, so this is a case of pot, meet kettle. Or whatever that expression is, I've prolly mangled it completely...
Have fun!

baby! shit, where have i been!? this is the best news of the day!!!
what a cool guy!! seriously, what more can you ask for? and to think that we've had several conversations about dating, masculine women, fem-botty men types, etc.
he sounds like an actual hunter-gatherer type, am i wrong?
like a real guy - guy!
this is HUGE!
before i pipe down, i'll say two things:
1. you had a fabulous date, which is an ENORMOUS milestone after not dating anyone for 9 years, think about it!? no matter what, you had a lovely time with a nice man!
2. screw the age gap - i suspect that in both of your heart of hearts, it doesn't matter to either of you. so go for it.
3. jump in and test it out, get your feet wet and your heart pumping with adrenaline, you're a smart, savvy, doctor lady, single mom, hard working intellectual type with very down to earth sensibilities, AND you have amazing tits!
PLUS you've got an assload of school under your belt, healing and metaphysical spirituality in your soul. AND you like/appreciate good music, food, nice hair and you smell good!
don't forget these things, you not only deserve romance, sex, companionship and happiness, BUT you're ready for them!
he sees who you and and what you're about - have fun and see where it goes!
your friend in seattle who almost missed the boat!

p.s. your heart opened up WIDE and you manifested this man - i suspect he manifested you as well!
sounds like it could be something there. age means nothing if two individuals can connect. what is squirrel woods? keep us updated!
awesome, hope you get some squirrely type action. ahaha!
