Good luck, it takes a bit of bottle to get back into relationships whatever level you take.
Good point there, Nom.
I also agree on the second but too.

...Yet!
PS. Does the person who is in your ' new relationship', know of your plans to hopefully, befriend this lady?

Re: Not giving the wrong idea
...after some misconceptions out there.I am not after a platonic relationship for the sake of it - just trying to approach one particular lady without misunderstanding arising.
It's not relevant to my estranged wife. I had several female friends while we were together and she had no problem with this.
The lady in my tentative new relationship (let's call her Tina even though she isn't) doesn't know about this merely because the subject has only come up since I last saw her (Tina). I may or may not happen to mention it depending what we talk about but it won't cause a problem. She knows I have female friends who are just friends and this does not bother her.
I'm not aiming to give anybody "false hopes". Indeed part of the purpose of the post might to be avoid this happening (not that I believe it relevant in this instance).
I have no need of an aphrodisiac toolkit nor am I "getting involved".
Thanks though to all of you who have taken part, you've been variously helpful, supportive, challenging, amusing, infuriating or irrelevant - and in some case combinations thereof. I love you all (well a few of you, especially Meg and Mups).
