Yuhooooo, Expat! The reason it wouldn't take is that I had already registered you for the second part. I figured if you wanted to hear it as well, you'd be set to go, and if you didn't, you could simply not call in. So you are good to go!

Thanks very much for taking it upon yourself to register me, Jawjaw. I certainly wouldn't want to miss it. Sorry for not realizing the problem with the address, but I'm still an amateur when it comes to forums.

I agree with you Dotsie, Jed was very good. It is such a shame I hadn't known a lot of what he was saying years ago!

That's why it's my mission to help him get the word out. Hopefully the timing will be right for many.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that most men are not the awful creatures that were described in earlier posts on this thread. I believe that by the time they get to be in their late 40's or 50's, the reason they are single is because they are losers ! The good ones are all taken!! Those of us with a good man aren't going to divorce him if we have any sense.
There are unfortunately more women than men, particularly in the older age groups, partially because men participate in riskier behavior then women at all ages and because more women than men survive birth and infancy. So, the older you are, the less of a chance there is for you to meet a quality single guy. hint: look for widowers!

Madelaine, I join you in sharing that my experience with men is different than some of the women have described in this post. I've been married to the love of my life for almost 30 years. I have total respect for him and he has total respect for me.

Unfortunately, not everyone is in the same boat so I will ask these questions of Jed and I know he will have excellent answers in return.

I happen to know a delightful man in his early 60s. HE's a great catch, and as youmention, he's a widower.

"Single being the new relationship is about being OK with oneness."

Being single does not mean you must be subjected to a stereotype.

mustang, I love this sentence taken from the article posted above:

And if you have the attitude of not making that person in your life the solution to anything and see he or she as an asset to your life instead of a completion, I believe the trust and relationship can be stronger.

This is true in marriage too.
