[QUOTE=mrsweetpea;255237][COLOR="blue">I'm in an intense,loving relationship with a delightful woman.... Because of health issues and age, it's doubtful we shall ever meet (and probable we'd both be disappointed if we did.)[/COLOR]

Now, what's that all about?

* Intense
* Loving
* Relationship
* Disappointed, how?

Disappointed because of one or the other's appearance?
Disappointed because of habits, traits, mannerisms?
Disappointed because of medical issues?

It is important to know and understand that when two people fall in love, they do so hook, line, and sinker, accepting all of a person, including the parts not yet seen. As for attitudes, believes, quirks, morals, goals, etc., these are things that should be discussed and worked through. If your "intense, loving relationship" is superficial or only one dimensional {such as sex talk/text) then I'd say this relationship is more about lust than anything deeper.

What are you referring to and what do you mean about "stimulating ideas"? Stimulating ideas and conversation can be about anything, what is your "thing"? If stimulating means provocative conversation that stimulates thought and ideas about issues, that is one thing.

If stimulating means sex talk, then what aspect of this do you want to know more about? (Please refer to the Index found at the top of the main screen. It contains links to helpful informative insightful, as well as how-to articles that discuss the most common questions and concerns people ask about.) If this is the case, then why not invite her to read the articles, also, and then discuss all that you have learned?
