Yup, that's me, too.
Especially - I just realized - since 2 sessions ago my T. hurt my feelings a bit when this subject came up. He told a quick story about a single friend a bit older than me, who just went to another country as a missionary, and said she only needs the love of the people she's helping (and hers for them) to bring her peace. That any intimate relationship w/a man again in her life doesn't matter one way or the other to her. In context, he REALLY was trying to help, poor man, but tears trickled out steadily, and I told him (in a whisper) he didn't need to say that again. That I told myself way too often I'm too old, too fat, too *something* - the chances too slim, please don't reinforce it. Thought he was going to die on the spot. He apologized and got all flustered. We talked. It's (sort of) okay now.
Aaaanyway...what does that have to do with this thread? Just I guess I like soaking in all the good stuff. Realizing these men obviously like where they're at, so others would, too. Others now divorced, widowed, whatever. I don't know. I'm not ready to give up on the idea. But, at least I can live vicariously through these lovely women, for now .... Oh dear this is surely the most pathetic thing I've ever posted. Too bad it's accurate :-(
