But genuinely suspecting it won't. Meeting her, or even just speaking to her on the phone, is still my life's Holy Grail- as pathetic as that may sound.
She obviously hates me (or her idea of me), but I can't imagine a more incredible experience. From what I've seen and heard, she's my double in nearly every respect. Meeting her would be the ultimate, but it has to happen when she's ready and she may never be ready. I have no choice but to respect her wishes. At least she knows how to contact me should that itch simply has to be scratched.
Mid fifties, married thirty years. My husband has sweetly asked me to try to outlive him, because he doesn't want to face life alone.
His odds are pretty good. Both our mothers (still living!) outlived our fathers. And our grandmothers...
