I think I'm thinking this because I have ummmm maybe too much time on my hands. Here goes....so I've been taping "The Young and The Restless" and "Bold and I was thinking about how there's always one character (woman) who goes through lovers like some of us change our shoes. Here's my question, "Do you think there are really women (maybe you're one of them) who men fall in love with over and over and ......? I've never known anyone like that. When I was in school I had quite a few boyfriends (some never even knew I was alive..remember those boyfriends?). I remember when I went to a class reunion I had one guy come up to me and my husband saying, "I was so in love with you, Annabelle, and you didn't know I was alive". I keep in touch with some of my friends from high school and it is amazing to hear that "all the guys liked you". I'm thinking..."where was I when all of those guys liked me?" I sure didn't know about it! Now finalluy my question: Do you think there is more than one "Love of your life". I guess I'm wondering because 1) I worshiped my late husband. I used to cry to him over the phone and say, "I can't breathe at the thought of something happening to you. It takes my breath". He'd laugh and say, "Nothing's going to happen to me". Well, as many of you know, he did die. Right in front of me...he just dropped dead. Nothing wrong with the man. Now I'm thinking, so is there someone I don't know about who is waiting for me and again, I don't know it. I always say, "I had Filet Mignon, why would I want hamburger". But that sounds so sad even to me. I remember reading about an actress younger than me and she said (when asked about plastic surgery) that she wanted to be with someone who understood about wrinkles and how we earn them. In the next few years there are going to be more and more widows. Because for some reason still, today, women live a little longer than men. I have 3 wonderful daughters, Two are married to amazing men and each have 3 children. My youngest daughter is 31 ad is still looking. (She is looking for someone like her Dad and I'm afraid that I have warped her perception about love because I've always told how her Dad and I fell in love the minute we saw each other. I think she's waiting for that. How many of you out there found love after being a widow. After you lived with and lost the man you gave every piece of your heart to?
