Be carefull lol I met my hubby on internet. Need I say more? But you know since his son's have moved out of the house besides our Joe aka the lump and my 14yr. Our marriage has gotten so much better. And Eric loves my cpap. If I forget to put it on at night he soooo kindly wakes me up and says honey your snoring so hard your going to hurt yourself put your mask on. And sad to say when the lump was sick and joined us in bed and I forgot to put on cpap he to woke me up and said mom put your cpap on your snoring to loud.

That's great to hear.

I try to avoid mirrors after hosing up at night, because it makes me cringe to imagine anyone ELSE seeing that sight (particularly if that particular night I've got a pantyhose or dental floss mod, am wearing the PAP-CAP, etc....)

All the hell with it Bab's, Go for it fer Christ's sake!! You're willin, he's willin, so charge straight ahead. My other advice is to enjoy what you have for each day and live that day without regret. If you have joy then rejoice, if you have pain, remember the joy. Those who fear trying never really learn to live.

Can't resist.... Treesap's tag says it all for me:

Work like you don't need the money;
Love like you've never been hurt;
Dance like nobody's watching.

Babs,

Let him know that if he hurts you your peeps from cpap talk will forego cpap for one night and show up on his doorstep, cranky and headachey!

Otherwise, good luck!

Please just remember that some of the creeps on the net can and do mimic nice upstanding people and can manufacture a "personality" to suit yours. Therefor will seem to be a perfect match. Some of them are very, very good at this.

On the up-side, there are nice people out there also. The trick is to decide who is who and make a good choice.

Good Luck

One more word of caution about their marital status. There are a lot of men who will go on the internet if they are "separated". They are still married, and I didn't want any part of a married man. Some will lie and say they are divorced. So that brings another question: "How long has your divorce been final?"

Our former principal met her husband on the internet. I think she ran out of men where she lived as she had been married so many times.

Ask how many times married. Not a good sign in my opinion if they have multiple marriages that they have lost count (hope I don't offend anyone).

Babs,

On the other hand wishing he is your dream boat and things work out. Who knows we might even get to enjoy your wedding plans (helping make them of course). LOL. I can see it now, the little bungalow, white picket fence, a swingset in the back along with a barbeque grill, yep I can just picture it.

Yeah, I'd never agree to meet YOU alone. I'd insist on a well-lit restaurant.

LOL,

NO!

He owns a housecleaning company. Which sounds odd, but the rest of his resume includes playing in a band that opened for Robin Trower and working for Greenpeace.

He's a bit off to the Left. Like me.

LOL,

Geez...I've been single too long! LOL

It's an old fashioned concept. "PAPER" is a product made from trees. When it's gathered together in bundles to sell to the consumer, it's wrapped in groups of 500 that are called "reams."

Your age is showing. You've clearly grown up in the post-computer world.

Babs, Be careful!!!

My brothers are into the internet thing and it wouldn't be a pretty sight to meet them one of them in person. I would LOVE to have you for a sis-in-law but I wouldn't wish my brothers on anyone!!

Oh god, I never thought of that. Quick, PM me your brother's names and email addys so I can screen them out!

LOL,
Babs
