Default Re: Blind Dates !

i had a blind date about two years after my husband passed away (12 years ago) because my friend who knew my husband and adored him kept telling me that this fellow was "just like georges", looked like him, great sense of humor, etc...so i agreed. of course it was a disappointment because probably no one could be like my husband. but the kicker was that this man not only did not look anything like georges, but told me he hadn't spoken to his own mother for about thirty years and did not care whether she was dead or alive, because she had not approved of his late wife. this was so totally unlike any man i would ever want to be with that i was really feeling blue afterward....things get better eventually. i have stopped trying to replace my lost love and give everyone a chance to be their own person.
