Yes, and it was good but also bad. We gave it 4 months. I started noticing too many differences for it to work in the long term. He was willing to change those differences, but I wasn't looking to change anyone. I wanted to find someone that was like me.
There was some distance that would require relocation and that would have been an issue.
He was a very nice guy though and I feel fortunate to have known him for that time.

I believe if you keep in mind what your goal is, that will be your guide. If you are looking for a good time, go for it. If you are looking for a relationship, take your time. I think people put more thought into the type of appliances they buy (checking on Consumer Reports, etc) than into the mate they want to spend the rest of their days with. Does anyone else see something wrong with that??
I think anyone who has been single for a while has got the burning loins (understandable) but if THAT directs you timing it could really mess things up. Take the time to get to know your potential mate. Ask the funny little questions that may never come up later. Nothing too personal, but have fun getting to know him. That in itself can be so stimulating. I am a big believer in delayed gratification. When you finally get your piece of pie, WOW!!!!!
