Hello,

 

The title of my post could be misleading as it's not really an old boyfriend but more like a lifetime friend I was in love with, my sweetheart we can say.

 

We met when I was 8 years old, he was 11 (that's 28 years ago!), our parents were friends. To make a long story short, we always flirted with each other, his mom always was saying "those two we'll marry them one day!" (we finally officially dated for a year or so when I was 20).

 

It's one of those stories where when one's ready, the other isn't. We wanted to date, my mom hated him, not good enough for me she said. He wanted to settled down, I wanted to have fun. I wanted a baby, he was just getting divorced, etc .. etc...

 

And now, after his failed marriage, my failed marriage, he's calling me again.. And the connection is still here and he'd like to come visit me...

 

I know we could get be together, I don't have any kids and I'd like at least one, which he could give me.. and I am wondering, is it why I am still single after all those years? Because I'm not with my meant to be?

 

I'm wondering if I should give it a try, but I don't want anybody to get hurt. I think my best bet is to be blunt honest and explain how I feel about it. I'd like to say "let's give it a try, with no pressure" and see how it goes.

 

Maybe in 40 years I'll be saying "I met your father 68 years ago". Or maybe it will nail in the coffin once for all.
