With both feet! That's how i'd jump in. How awesome for you that you have found someone you want to spend time with. Life is for the living and i think you owe it to yourself to explore this relationship. You are never too old.

I'm only 20 but I happen to believe that Love can be at any age. My father has a friend that just got married at the age of 60 and he's the happiest man I'm ever seen. So don't let your age stop you from finding that person. After 9 years, I think you deserve to be with someone that would make you happy. Unless you're quite content on your own. Regardless, true love can be at any age. And I hope the young ones (13,14) don't read into this too much. (haha)

As I'm only 14, you might think that I can't relate to you and can't possibly understand what it's like for you at your age, but from your question I can quite clearly see that you WANT to be in a relationship with the person you've found, and its just nerves that are holding you back - so I say go for it!
There's no wrong time for love in your life - most people are looking for it desperately - so don't let this chance go to waste, and if it doesn't work out, don't let that make you think it never will. Just brush that dirt off your shoulders and find someone else - that might even make it more fun! ;)

At 62 you are still young! If it feels right and good then go for it. You don't give much detail but start out with dinners together, movies, spending the day together doing something that interests you both and just getting to know one another. Let nature take its course, relax and enjoy this new found special person.
Good luck!

go for it- you only live once- just find out the kind of person they are before you take it too far. We bought a house from a man that presented himself as a brilliant architech, and a christian- he cost us 50 grand because he ended up being fake, and a liar- but we can deal with that. What he did to some poor soul in Texas is another story, which is my warning to you. Our x owner, although once married with two kids, was gay. He courted a woman on the internet for 14 days and then went to Texas and married her. He was after her money, and we could not warn her of his sexual preference, or his intentions. He left no forwarding address. Poor woman.

You should go for it.
The longer you live on your own, the more your own ways and routines are ingrained into your daily living. Thats fine for a safe independent life, but it can also be very lonely and one dimensional.
You can always 'tread with caution' and proceed at your own pace until you are absolutely sure that you want to be a twosome again, bear in mind you can always change your mind!!
Go light and easy and see where it heads!!
Happy new year

A friends 62 year old wife did this, and it provided her with a great deal. Her husband had mixed emotions about the whole affair, but to his credit, he saw the benefits that it brought about in her.
The husband and wife are still together, by the way. Their relationship is the better / stronger too.

Yes...why not--something wrong with that is there? I fully intend to start on the dating scene next year, admittedly, i am only 49, but i really do not see why age should be a barrier to friendship and possible future love-so you go for it lady, it will all come back to you-you will see!
