Never had any blind dates. But, I'd like to expand a little on the postings suggesting stepping out of your comfort zone.
Several years ago, a neighbor on my street in St. Louis lost her husband of more than 40 years. She carried on for three-four years as a personable widow, a friend to all. Then, at one of the street's annual adults-only party, she introduced her new husband, of one week! We were all blown away!
Especially when we learned that they had been in elementary and middle schools together, some 55-60 years before, then had run across each other at a church function.
Delightful story. And, that's more than ten years ago, they're still like love-birds.
Me, I'm still in my comfort zone after losing my wife of 40+ years almost ten years ago. But, I like my comfort zone, thank you very much!
