I’m a year past my divorce. I’m still healing and trying to get my stuff together. I have at the suggestion of my therapist and friends ventured into the dating world. I am a 48 year old man. I have met someone who on paper completely makes sense. She is lovely and seems to be crazy about me. But there is this loop in my brain that remembers the thunderbolt I felt with my ex wife. I was so madly in love with her for 22 years and did not want the marriage to end. So my question is am I too old to feel that again. Is this new world just based on muted colors and practical choices or is there a possibility for awe and inspiration? I just don’t want to think that I will never feel that again. I am so confused.

Maybe this woman you are dating doesn’t quite have “it”. You can’t force love to happen. Give it more time
