Wow, I remember this thread. Thought I should update it!
So, I took the "plunge" and looking back, the race was a lot softer than I thought it was going to be. I have been dating the Rabbi now for almost a year! Boy, how time flies. There is definitely a deep connection in a lot of areas, trust just being one of them. I can't believe I put up with so much crappa-doodle-doo from glass-bottomed-boat-boy for so long.
It's nice to be in a relationship where you both pitch and catch!
with love
