Is it too much to ask for a man to love me?
Barbara
Barbie8044@aol.com 

I too fell in love with a man from the internet. but we live close to each other . he is younger then I am. my background is that I was a battered wife for l8 yr . I am now divorced. He came from a long term living arrangement with a woman who is on a lot of heavy medication. He's raising his l4 yr old step daughter. and owns his own business.

I fell in love with him the first time I laid eyes on him. We have been out several times to concerts, computer shows and out to dinner. we have made love many times but that's not the total basis for our "friendship" as he calls it. I want to be his mate for life but he can't accept my incontinence, hearing loss. I also have a cough I can't get rid of from acid reflux from a hitial hernia that will soon be operated on. this is hard for me to accept since he has a weight problem and I've never chastised him for anything. we've never argued but he says he doesn't love me.

he's been a perfect angel to me doing a lot of repair work on my home and every time I ask for help he's right here helping me. We've had a lot of good times together. I guess I don't understand why someone can be so good to me then walk away from me saying they don't love me when I am pretty sure they do.

I'm 50 yr old mild cp woman I'm not hard on the eyes either. but I am beginning to wonder if I will ever find a man that can accept me for who I am . I can find men all the time that just want sex I want so much more I want happiness , fun and love and sex. is this too much to ask for. I don't know. I do walk , talk and do anything anyone else has. what is so aggravating to me is my incontinence problem . I've tried to get it taken care of but so far nothing has worked that well. is it too much to ask for a man to love me ? I wonder.
