I haven't dated in almost 15 years. At first, it was just by accident. I was in relationships almost nonstop for a decade. I felt I needed some "me" time. I did pursue one or two women, but it kind of led nowhere. Then, other things happened that made me shift my attention and made romance the last of my concerns, although I started realizing that I might have become incredibly picky on exactly who I wanted.
Now, in my mid40's, I'm starting to feel lonely. I did get closer to someone who probably lives way yoo far for it to be a good idea, though I am making plans to visit her this summer. Because, without having ever seen her, I know she's someone worthwhile, worth investing in. But...in the meantime, I kind of have been feeling miserable. She's also very busy, which I totally understand, but I still feel rather...isolated and melancholic.
