. I took a big step by going on line and looking for a gentleman. I did not pay attention to the miles between us but I was more interested in his profile. I read most all of the profiles as they were so interesting. I did communicate with a lot of individuals as pen pals. I learned a lot of interesting things through them. However one day a gentleman came to me and I responded in kind. I had not even looked at his review until after our conversation. It was then I knew this was the one I was looking for. It took over a year but it was well worth it.
