A couple of years ago, I contacted a lady who appeared to be just what I was looking for. I found her to be intelligent, personable and we'll spoken, and so decided to see her, if at all possible. Alas, i was very busy that year, and so never managed to make it work, and then she stopped advertising, so I gave up. We have,however, maintained sporadic contact since, and recently, she referred to me as " an endearing, mysterious and poignant (we have never met) figure in her life. I was touched by that statement. Now I am considering asking her to dinner (no strings, no pressure) as I really would like to meet her, in person.
