Finding Mrs. Right
Dear Ms. Lee,
I am a man in my late 30's and I have never fallen in love before. I am actually starting to wonder if there is something wrong with me? I have a wonderful large family and know unconditional love through my Parents and siblings. I don't have any heavy-duty baggage that would stop me from falling in love.
I have felt passion, intense attraction, and have thoroughly enjoyed being with most of the women I have dated. Yet, in all these years, I have not found myself feeling as though I have met anyone whom I could not live with out. This worries me as I want a family and partner badly. What is wrong with me?
Sincerely,
S.K.
Dear S.K.,
I really don't think there is anything wrong with you other than you have not yet met Mrs. Right. You say you have enjoyed being with most of the women you have dated; my only question is did you date any of them long enough to give love a chance to develop?
Love is not something that is instantaneous for most of us. Typically it takes time to develop. With that in mind I hope you're giving some of these wonderful ladies a fair chance!
You obviously know what love is through the closeness of your family. Typically the letters I get are filled with emotional baggage. I am happy to see that there are not any serious past issues that are blocking your willingness to love, and commit.
As far as I can see you're fine! So don't worry, be patient, it will come. It just happens to come later in life for some of us than it does for others. I can promise you this though, when love finally does get you, you'll not question it…. even for an instant.
Best Wishes!
Jennifer
