LoneCowboy, you are so right! I'm so glad I met my (future) husband at 20 and married at 25. But then again, some people wouldn't have it that way. I just happen to love it.

(If my husband answers just hang up and try again later)

Ding ding ding ding ding ding ding!!!!!!! When someone can't at least *respect* your hobbies & understand that it's OK to have different tastes w/o it being an issue, that usually points to even bigger underlying compatibility problems in the long run, at least in my experience. I went through the same thing due to my rather extensive collection of pythons, and when I was finally given an ultimatum (i.e. "it's me or the snakes!"), I was amazed at how many extra cages I had room for w/o all his stuff in the way.

Hang in there & don't give up hope. Sometimes you meet just the right person when you aren't actively looking! Your chickens are a good guide too - i.e. don't put too much stock in people who don't like animals!

I finally met Mr. Roux 6 years ago & he has an even bigger collection of critters than I did. 2 obsessive collectors = 1 HUGE menagerie!

GOOD LUCK!

I don't see anything wrong with meeting someone on a site where people share common interests. I think it would be a great thing.

It's really hard to get married at an older age. We get so stuck in our ways. I was actually very happy being single. I had a good job, if I didn't have to deal with the people and politics. I had great friends. But it was time to move on and I met this great guy. He really is wonderful. Sometimes his "The world revolves around me" additude bugs me, but then I think that's a problem with having gotten married older. Good luck and I hope you find the right guy but don't compromise! Stick to your guns and find the right guy don't settle.

Wanna wish the OP good luck. I met my husband online... Not like a dating thing, though. We met online, then were friends for a couple of years IRL before we started dating. ... Though, now that I think about it, we have an awful lot in common, but that doesn't stop me from wanting to club him in the head repeatedly on a regular basis. LOL

We will be celebrating our 10th wedding anniversary in May. (If I don't beat the tar out of him first!)

Good luck Chickenannie. If you find someone that shares your love of chickens, then there is hope for the rest of us.
