Hi Megan - congratulations!

Whether it is love or not does it matter. If it makes you happy go for it. All I can ask is how come it took you 4 years? LOL

You enjoy it Megan - got to go. I'm logging on to internet dating site.

NEVER TOO OLD, Look at Fred and his HAREM ,ha. I am so pleased for you it just happens naturally .does he speak English? You probably are aware of all the negative effects that often happen as Love is Blind. That's the only way to base a relationship on friendship first. Then hope the rest follows. Good luck .x Bonnie

Go for it Megan. Thirteen years ago at the age of 59 I found myself talking most evenings to a young lady of 39 in an AOL chatroom. Despite the age difference we had many things in common and a year later we met up. We have now been together for eleven years and married for eight. We are still very much in love. I wish you all the best.

Love has no bounds no matter what age we are. Enjoy your life with your new found love. It brings me hope! I sometimes feel that because of my illness, I will not find love again, although I am still very good friends with 'the love of my life', I am playing it safe because we 'split up' after 11 years although we have known each other for coming up to 18.

Good luck xx

Megan if you are sincere NO never have you seen the re-run of 'Last Tango in Halifax about a couple who where childhood sweethearts re-meeting in their old age. They meet after a discovery on facebook both are widow/er they meet up again for a coffee and chat and after the widower has his car stolen she is running him back home where they chance on his car driven in the opposite way they end up doing a hapless u-turn and she drives like mad to keep up with his car while he uses his cell phone to get the police involved anyway the collide with this car have a short spell making statements to the police the go for another coffee each waiting for their respective daughters to turn up to get them back home. The nub of this story is they decide to marry each other so go for it girl follow your heart and if cupids darts are pricking you it may be only spring but many a great relationship has been formed.

Regards

Hi Megan, your question of 'are you are too old to fall in love,' reminded me of something Joan Collins said on being asked about the wisdom of being married to a to a younger man. She just shrugged and said 'If he dies - he dies.' Hahaha. It tickled me pink.

I'm so, so happy for you, we need feel-good news like this, it cheers us up no end.

Enjoy every single day of being in love, it's the most wonderful feeling in the world. Angie. xxx

Probably happy with a new person to lavish even more attention upon them. Enjoy this special adventure Megan. Suz xx

You are never too old Megan. Go for it and I wish you many years of happiness. x

If you're not too tired with reading all the congratulations, slip mine into the pile, girl. It's lovely that you found someone on the same wavelength and I wish you both well.

Enough of that mushy stuff ! In answer to your query, I have it on good authority from a bloke I met down the pub, that you cannot fall in love after the age of 104, except in special circumstances. So you qualify. Enjoy !!!!
