I Am a Romantic

I always believed in love, that magical kind in which you would leave everything you currently have and everything you have accumulated just for a chance to be with that special 'one'. A woman worth starting over, but in which the starting over would make sense, maybe the only sense you have ever known. A woman who's touch always sends electricity through your body, she smells like home and you wonder how you ever managed a night's sleep without her. Not only is the relationship passionate, but you also know how to 'chill' together and enjoy simple things like the sound of her voice and the touch of her leg next to yours. You both are sensitive to each other's thoughts and feelings and instinctively know how to treat one another with respect and understanding.

I thought I had this type of relationship a few times but time proved I have not. At my age I'm beginning to really wonder if it's even possible or just childish fantasy.

Maybe it's something that only time can build rather than tear down.

So many questions but I've learned to just be content in my own mind and in my private life.
