Hard nights

I've not been able to sleep much recently. Husband is in the army and has gone off to the Middle East, but apart from that, My daughter's restless too and the slightest noise I wake up! I'm still up tonight too, but I'm talking to a friend I've made online, I can't really remember exactly how we met, I think he rated one of my pictures on one of these social websites. Anyway, we've struck up quite a good friendship, for two people who don't know each other and have about a 13 yr age difference. I'm the older one, he's the younger one.
I can't imagine being friends with someone who was born as I was starting high school... but we've really hit it off, we seem to be quite different people, but they say opposites attract. There's some kind of physical attraction there too, obviously because that's how we started talking, through liking each others pictures. We never seem to talk about anything in particular, no pondering the meaning of life or talking politics, but maybe that's why the conversations are so good and I enjoy them so much, because they're just about stuff, whatever is in our heads. I'm wondering how much we really have in common apart from a serious appreciation for how each other looks and a love of talking about nothing, but everything. Ok so there are times late a night when the conversation takes a turn for the more erotic, which can be down to me and my clever use of double entendre! It's an escape, a fantasy, a what if, it makes me feel less lonely.
