I finally found my true love when I was 40 and convinced I was going to be single all my life - we have been happily married for two years.
I consider myself very fortunate, because I did wait for my soul-mate, and she is beautiful, wealthy, climbs 5.10, smart and strong, as well as being an amazing balance between woman and little girl. Sher is 37 and doesn't look a day over 30.
It is a lot more work than anything I have ever done in my life. Giving up independence for a partnership is a life challenge, IMHO.
