I have been alone for a long time. My last relationship was 8 years ago. Part of the reason was because I was so broken hearted after the last one that I wouldn't risk it. The other part was me being my mom's sole caretaker. Women don't want a man who can't be 100 percent devoted to them. After mom passed, I was really in no position to be with anyone. Now I am ready and have been seriously trying for almost 2 years but with no luck. I am shy and have rather severe eczema. I'm not pretty, basically. But there is this woman I work with...i find myself very attracted to. We are very good friends and I never intended to developer romantic feelings for her. She is 20 years my junior and recently confided to me that she is getting divorced. I would never pursue another man's wife, but since she is getting divorced....i haven't felt this way about a woman in a very long time and I really just want a chance...please pray for me
