What a wonderful thing to say: "still dancing." :wink: It brought tears to my eyes. I can relate because we're "still laughing." Met my DH2B three years ago. We fell in love almost immediately. He is a widower with two grown sons and two grandsons. His wife died from breast cancer about 15 years ago. We have so many things in common that I feel as if I knew her, that we would have been dear friends. We met at a gig that my neighbor's son was doing. I went with her to hear her son sing, and suddenly she said, "Oh my goodness! I see someone I know!" Well that wasn't unusual because it seemed like everytime we went to one of her son's gigs she met someone she knew. She left me sitting at the table alone while she went to say hello. She returned a couple of minutes later, leaned down and whispered in my ear, "Okay, single guy!" All I could think of was, "Great. :roll: All I wanted to do was come here and listen to Austin sing. Now I have to be sociable to one of her friends." Well, he sat next to her to catch up on old times, and his son sat next to me. Adrian (his son) and I carried on a conversation as if we had always known each other. After a while I said to him, "Hey! Switch seats with me!" Adrian was a bit confused, but he did as I had asked. I then sat next to Don (my now DH2B). It was an instant attraction for us. That was on December 27, 2007. He was invited to a New Year's Eve party, but didn't come because of the horrible weather so I called him up the next day and invited him to dinner. He thought I meant that day -- January 1. We had dinner and haven't been apart since, and are planning to get married very soon. I now know what love is. I was married before for 26 years -- together for 27 -- but never felt love like this, and I was never loved like Don loves me. :wink: We are absolutely meant to be together.
