I met my late wife through a similar web site. She recently passed away very suddenly. She was only 46 years old. My priest helped me to realize that although (of course) I miss her terribly, that is not the real reason for the emptiness that I feel. That emptiness is due to the fact that I miss being a husband. It turns out that I was pretty darn good at marriage. So, here I am, I have a decent house in a beautiful suburb. I am an excellent cook who enjoys drives in the country and hikes in our state parks. I like to walk and train my dog and wander through antique/junk shops. I enjoy sitting by a backyard fire and laughing at the T.V. I am a devout Christian (catholic), and essentially a quiet homebody. Kind and loving I am not crabby too often, and almost never angry. I am honest and absolutely faithful. I hope that you will give me a chance, you will never be sorry.
