I am starting to believe that I am ready for the idea of intimate relationships again. As an aside but I have feared falling into old patterns with relationships prior to this because I played a similar role with boyfriends, friends, family members etc. Some of that is shaking out right now and I am embracing it rather than fearful of it.

I would absolutely consider a non-traditional route to being a parent again fostering, adopting etc.

I trust that more will be revealed, for us both.
