While I was in Cyprus I met an old friend and a relative that I had not seen for 27 years , he emigrated to America in 1983 but visits Cyprus every year . His wife passed away a couple of years ago , cancer , so we do have something in common. I visited him at his hotel and had much to say. He confided in me and asked for my opinion , you see he met this girl in Cyprus in a Biraria last year and continued exchanging texts phone calls etc. The old boy is in love !! He showed me some of the texts that he exchanged with her in order to make me see that she indeed is in love with him.
Kostas I said - not his real name - the girl is after a secure future both for her but also for a daughter she has back home in Belarus , although Kostas is an attractive guy I couldn't help feeling that the girl was confusing love with security. He asked what I thought , I played it down a bit by saying that both he and she , although only 28 , were adults and should decide for themselves. Kostas really wanted an encouraging comment I did not offer one , now in London Im thinking perhaps I was wrong in not offering a word of encouragement , what the heck the guy is single , fit , attractive and reasonable well off , why not . Saw the girl , an absolute bombshell ,
What do you think ?

You are absolutely right Milti. Just go ahead and follow your instincts. Dont forget the pre-nuptial though.

There is an old adage which covers the situation nicely (IMHO) "If you can raise the gallop, go for the ride !"

BUT, if you are using the example of 'Another Person' to cover up your own desires, get out the carpet slippers and watch 'Coronation Street', it means you are past your prime.

I don’t know why you bother Miltiades… the last time you got it up was towards the end of the EOKA struggle.
