So, this girl

[dinocicerelli]

that is my first, and only real love. With whom I've had no contact with in 15 years. The same woman that telephoned my dad a couple of times in the last year and left messages for HIM to call her back, providing a phone number. To which, I asked my dad NOT to phone back, please. Because of........I don't know why, but I did. Decides to call me up last week. We arranged to meet that day. We met, that day. That was a few days ago. I think, I'm losing my mind.

[Electricldy]

Brother, can you see her as part of Adeline's life? Because that is the bottom line.

[James]

This will either end very very well . . . . or not. Good luck!

Dino,

I had something similar happen to me about two years ago. An old flame from high school found me on Classmates.com website and invited me to give her a call. My old flame lives in California working as an associate for an insurance firm. She's in the process of getting a divorce from her loveless marriage (She walked out on him after 20 years), it's a long story I won't bore you with.

She's my age give or take a year, has two adult children, son and daughter, she loves dearly and has regular phone contact with, and will be flying up to Washington State to visit with her daughter for Xmas.

When we first talked and shared emails, there were a lot of sparks and chemistry. After that subsided, I explained to her that my conscience wouldn't allow the phone-nookie. My old flame loves the west coast and wouldn't think of moving back east, and I can't afford to live with her on the west coast. So we give each other a call every few days or so, just to talk and share life's experiences with each other. She's a close friend, nothing more. I won't become romantically involved with her, or move away from CT to be closer to her.

My musician and congregation friends are local, and my online friends are you guys here on BaM.

Enjoy yourself, Dean, but remember that a close friend is better than someone who plays the "shallow end of the pool."

[Mr_You]

I wish the girlfriend that I had my only long relationship with would contact me. We were young and only broke up because she was going to school and I was living out of town. She was really really excited to see me when we bumped into each other recently (20+ years later). I think there are still feelings, but she's married and has a daughter and there's no way I would wreck someones home. Sometimes I doubt I'll ever feel that way about someone again. I've only been able to talk about it when these threads come up.

Yeah, I've had my fun in days when I was younger. Now, I'm more sensible and have female friends locally who have their own lives. I've never felt the need to hook up with women and shack up, although I can buy one or two of my close female friends a drink and share a laugh while at our music jams on Thursdays. We have common interests, but different lives and values. That keeps me from being ungentlemanly, and also from over-stepping boundaries. Women appreciate that when you can be a friend, but not a take-out meal. ;):D

Finally, Bob, I'm right there with ya. Yep. It's great to see her. I better leave it at that. She really is somethin' though. Truly. A bit too religious, though. You'd love her, instantly.

I was right there with ya, til last week. Then.....she called.

[dinocicerelli]

She's top shelf, for sure.

[Dr Git]

Well, either your going to be a lucky stiff or......:rolleyes:

[Vito]

just go slow man. Expect nothing more than reconnecting with an old friend then see if it goes anywhere. It's so easy to get caught up in the "newness" of a relationship.... then reality sets in. Managing of the kids with the "new" girlfriend etc. Kids come first and that sometimes could become an issue. Make sure thats stated up front and don't, whatever you do, compromise when it comes to your daughter. You get one shot at being a great dad.

She'd be the best thing that ever happened to Adeline. She's a better person than either myself, or Adeline's mother. Even without her, over the years, just thinking about her made me a better person.

On the other hand, I'm a bit wild to live the way they do, so there is that to consider, as well.

Hey Dino, she sounds like an amazing woman. Personally, I would love to end up with someone that pushes me to be a better man. I would maybe fall into the ' bit too religious' category you spoke of. But let me just say, there is a difference between being religious/fanatic and living a life devout to God.

I don't know you, and I sincerely hope I don't say anything to offend anyone, but I can see how people that don't do the whole church thing, or feel like they're far from God can look at someone who does do the whole church thing on a regular basis ... and think of them being too religious. Let me tell ya', I don't blame anyone for being turned off by the way religious people live, I've seen how crazy people can get 'in the name of God'. But there's a different side to all of that. See, I consider myself someone who TRIES to place God in front of every decision, every aspect of my life ... even my music. Everything! But that doesn't mean I can't enjoy having a drink with friends or family. Or that I can't live a life that's exciting! Honestly, it's just about TRYING to live better before God. And I say trying, because I'm human. I fail and fail and fail... but I keep trying. That's the difference.

I guess my point is this, don't be afraid or turned off by her trying to live a life that's different. I don't consider myself a freak for trying to live a life for God, and truly hope that anyone I meet doesn't turn their back on me for doing so, because I'm not a bad person. Trying to be a better person shouldn't have to make me or HER a target.. or some sort of red flag.

Anyway man, I know I kind of went off there... but again, not trying to offend anyone (and hope I didn't cross the line here in BAM talking about this stuff). Just saying, if you're a better man next to her ... if you're a better father because of her ... then it might be just what you need the rest of your life. With that said though, there are fanatics out there ... and they are scary!! But what if she's not like that? :)

[dinocicerelli]

I've done my best to avoid this for 15 years. She's the only one I've ever trusted, or loved. My heart has been broken the entire time she's been gone. Now she's here, and it's really frightening. It'll put a stop to the brownies and drunken jam sessions.

On the other hand, she and I love to snowmobile together. She wants to spend now years together. Maybe I should take her snowmobiling in the dark, under the stars.

Just my 2 cents, it sounds like it may be something you could use in your life.

one thing that has kept me flying on a straight path is the thought of having to explain anything I have done or do to my kid or have her witness it for herself. My thought is, if I am doing something I would be uncomfortable discussing with my kid, or really embarrassed or ashamed if she saw it happen, I probably shouldn't be doing it. I also think if it isn't something I would like my kid to participate in, it is also something I shouldn't be doing. No matter how well we think we are hiding something, kids always figure it out.

Once you have kids, your life isn't your own anymore. You have to start setting good examples for them to follow. Your Daughter is at a very impressionable age. It looks to be a perfect time to have the influence there.

Think with your head, not with your heart, Dean. Love may be beautiful and all that, but it can be disastrous if you jump in without becoming friends first.

Many people make this mistake when they first begin courting, the physical attraction is strong, and it's all hearts and flowers. Unless the couple actually gets to know the other person's likes and dislikes well, the results can be problematic. If you are past the age of 27 or so, your libido isn't as strong as when it was when you were 18. (Not ;)) Take time to get to know her, her emotions, everything about her, before you make any sort of commitment to her.

Jam sessions and brownies can continue, except that they'll be watched more closely by your intended for signs of getting out of hand. (Women do that, you know, to keep you on the the narrow path).

If this girl is as religious as you say, she may have values that are not like yours, and she may not be willing to sacrifice her beliefs for you. You may find that love conquers all, and that love never fails. Just be ready to make some changes in your life if she is as good for you as you say she is.

[dinocicerelli]

Yep, even as a friend, or a thought, she is a positive. I've been playing "Back on the Chain Gang", by The Pretenders. I told her that, last night. She played it all night long and cried. I'm really in for it.

She is scholarly, disciplined, travelled, well to do, and beautiful. She was the catch of the town. It is so good to hear from her.

Sh!t

[Harker1440]

Now she's here, and it's really frightening. It'll put a stop to the brownies and drunken jam sessions.
:eek: What no more drunken jam sessions or BROWNIES :eek:
My 2 cents:
You should do what is best for you and your family first
If this girl understands that Adeline is your first and foremost priority and still wants to " Join " your family circle then you have your answer on how to proceed
either way Good Luck:dude:

Dino, you're going to want to take slow, deliberate steps to win this woman over. That means showing her hospitality. Asking her over for coffee and bagels one morning, when she can see you at your morning best. :p;)

Spend time with her in public. She may speak of her religious feelings, her love for God, and how it affects your relationship with you. Don't shy away from these, but do know that if she's quoting scripture to you, that's a good sign. Most people don't have a clue what's inside the "good book."

[geddins81]

Trust yourself....you're a caring father, and obviously have your daughter's best interest at heart. Let that lead you and don't look back or second guess it. THAT, after all, is what our real "job" is here.

Good luck, and Merry Christmas!

LOL! Apart from the spelling, there speaks a wise man!! ;)

One day at a time, partner. You know that. Live it one day at a time, and enjoy every second for what it is.

I know it's a cliche, but live and fill each day as if it were your last. Tomorrow will take care of itself. You, of all people, should have learned that recently.

If she can do the same the future, whatever it might bring, is bright. Good luck!

Priorities # 1, 2 and 3.

http://i214.photobucket.com/albums/cc231/dinocicerelli/IMG_3036.jpg


# 4, is me. I gotta maintain my lifestyle to some degree, because it's finely tuned, like a concert violin.

I'll take care of these, in order. Everything else will fall into place.

[Ridgeback]

Come to my bedside (Eric Andersen)

Chorus:
Come to my bedside, my darling.
Come over here and close the door.
Won't you lay your body soft and close beside me
And drop your petticoat upon the floor?

I waited for you, oh, such a long time.
I tried to grow and be a better man.
If you knew your love has made one poor heart wealthy
Though my clothes may lay tattered in your hand.

Your breast has told my ear life's golden secrets.
Your back has shown my fingers endless groans.
Your lips have whispered wisdom that is timeless
About life and death and things I'd never known.

Chorus

Your eyes are bluer than the mountain waters.
Your hair is flowin' dark and flowin' long.
Your skin has more gold than a morning sunrise.
It is softer than the breeze of a summer's dawn.

I miss you more with every passin' sunset.
I plan a plan on every new day born.
No, words cannot describe one thing I'm sure of,
That it's in my lovin' arms that you belong.

Chorus.

[dinocicerelli]

Yep, Richard, I've really missed her. Her parents forced the split when we were young. We were dynamite, together. I have missed her more with each passing sunset.

[Ridgeback]

Yep, Richard, I've really missed her. Her parents forced the split when we were young. We were dynamite, together. I have missed her more with each passing sunset.

Trust me on this......

[Spike Dee]

Hello Mate,

Not many of us get a second chance in life, things are going to be different between you because you are different people. Blimey if I met myself 20 years ago I would have hated myself I was so full of it. But wives and children change you. And as for religion, it's not a disease but a lifestyle choice. Respect her views and she will be more inclined to respect yours. Blimey what are drunken jam nights but a congregation out to spread music and laughter? But you owe it to yourself to give it a try. You have a wonderful daughter and that is surely a testiment to you as a person. After all our children are just mirrors of us.

I would suggest getting together, all of you. Not just you and her. That gives you some breathing space to see how she interacts with Nbr1 and to then find out if you still feel the same way about her. But if the spark is still there and your daughter likes her! Damn you gotta go for it! and if it does not pan out, you won't spend the rest of your life going through what if scenario's. But if it does pan out..............

Ah Man, Love is a many splendid thing.

Spike.

[leroy4403]

We're still waiting for one more picture!:dude:

You know, Dino, I would consider myself a religious man. I have strong faith, belief, and practice.

On the other hand, I do like to have fun and have an event-filled lifestyle. I haven't changed my ways much. I've actually enhanced them. My wonderful wife has been a true blessing at helping me see who I am.

I wish you happiness!

Darren.

[Electricldy]

Considering what you've been thru this year, the strength you have shown, and the obvious fact that you are a truly fantastic father, I think you, Dino, deserve all good things. If she is one of those good things, persue her with all your heart. We good women pray to find a man with your integrity.

So...does she have a single brother? ;)

[tahitijack]

Good luck Dino.

This is odd. I just watched the movie Serendiptity last night. If you have not seen it.....it might be worth a look......similar to your story.

Some of us get a second chance, hope this works out for you.

Seriously, be careful what you wish for brother. It sounds like a whole lot of change might be required on your part for this to work. I had a couple of relationships with 'good girls' a long time ago. I thought it was what I wanted; thought I would change for the better. Then I noticed the 665 on my scalp...

On our first date, when I was a young 20 yr old whippersnapper, I took her to the fanciest restaurant in the city. We weren't city folk. I gave her a box of roses.

I'll get pics on New Years. She's been calling a lot.

[rosewoodsteel]

Dino,
Enjoy life and see where the road takes you.
My only "advice" is to be careful not to put her on a pedestal.
-Hope your New Year is a good one. :)

I don't know you but I know about getting my demons under control, 20+ years with a to die for woman, and not messing up with our kids (yet he he he). All I can suggest is changes have to be for you and not somebody else if they are to work or stick. An exception would be kids.

On the kids. My brother is divorced and in a relationship with a woman who also has kids. To my surprise he's ended up the best parent of all via putting kids first regardless. A much older friend took the high road and had brutal honesty about putting his kids first and he's got the ultimate for it where his kids are so supportive and loving now that he's an older man.

I wish you luck and hope all works out with the child and parent relationship because that could be the most valuable thing your life may ever have.

The only secret or tip I have on the women part of it is that my wife and I are brutally honest with each other and accept each other for who we are.

Good luck.

P.S. If pushed I confess to living by the "When mom's happy everybody's happy." rule.

[dinocicerelli]

Oh boy, this is working out nicely, so far.

Frankie, I told her that I would have to turn her into a bad girl. She relied by saying, "I have thigh high stockings for the evening, does that count?".

While that isn't exactly what I had in mind, it's a good start. We used to screw our brains out, so New Years, it looks like Dino's in for some sugar.

Best a luck. you know your priorities. you can change; she can too. sounds like whatever will work out, will. Even if it doesn't go the way you want, your heart was already broken, right?

That explains it...

[dinocicerelli]

Points taken. I'll bring the lipgloss as well as make an attempt at keeping the few remaining brain cell I have left. I'm completely convinced that I am indeed, too wild for her. I'm cool with that. It's great to see her, though.

[Flanagan]

Eh,could be great fun...I've only got two relationship rules 1.) Don't lie to me,unless you're telling me I look good,and 2.) Don't f*** anybody else...if those two can be followed,I'm good...'course,easier said than done...

I'll be tight to the rules, genitalmen. Today is the day. I blew serious cash on this.

Adeline's mother knows. She's hurt. But,..........at least she knows. That's the way I role. I like that about me.

Yea, Dino....

Now we're all waiting. I spent the night playing UNO with my 2 kids and wife living vicariously through you.....

Hope it was a fantastic time!:dude:

Let's hope he's not in a bathtub full of ice missing a kidney.

Let's hope he's not in a bathtub full of ice missing a kidney.

Both possible, Tim, considering a) the temperature in Edmonton; and b) his drinking habits.....:rolleyes:

[leroy4403]

[wilerty]

He has to come up for air eventually. ;)

Hope he didn't go to Vegas ... or Niagara Falls ... :o

[dinocicerelli]

Haha, thanks guys.

She is exactly the same as she has been in my mind the entire time she's been gone. Fantastic gal. Honorable gal. Beautiful.

Corruptible.......willingly, intelligently.

Bad girl...not-so-much, but more open-minded than I had imagined.

Religious, yep. Disappointed that i am not. We had the conversation. I did my part.

She just left. I had a great 3 days with her. Truly great.:dude: It feels good to know that not all women are b!tches. She's a rare bird.

All right. bro!!

Onward and upward!!

Considering what you've been thru this year, the strength you have shown, and the obvious fact that you are a truly fantastic father, I think you, Dino, deserve all good things. If she is one of those good things, persue her with all your heart. We good women pray to find a man with your integrity.

So...does she have a single brother? ;)

Thank you. I believe that I deserve her, too. She's really a great gal.

[leroy4403]

Right on!:dude:

Keep us posted! We're pulling for you!

My wife is the same. I love her greatly, and I always will!
