I think a few e-mails, then an exchange of phone numbers, if that goes off ok, then it's time to meet. It should be at a place where the lady is comfortable, and feels safe. Dating and relationships can be hard, there's a lot of give and take, we all have some baggage that needs to be cast aside. I want my new friend to be open with me from the start, real pictures, true statements, and lets avoid the obvious that will soon be evident. At his point in my life I desire a truely close friend in my life.

Our first date should probably be a meeting, coffe, light lunch, etc, I personally would like a more subdued atmosphere, where we could discuss family, grandbabies and where we are presently at in our lives, nothing heavy but solid enough to see the type of people we are. We have all made relationship,mistakes but normally when you consintrate you can read a person. I would not be comfortable with anyone that doesn't like to dance, but a great kisser, might sway me, Lol
