Hi Matthew!

Actually, I meant to post a follow-up on that one.  I neglected to mention a
few things about that relationship and now I have some questions since
Things Are Not Looking Good.

First the facts.  She is in her mid-thirties and has three kids from two
previous marriages.  I am in my mid-twenties -- ok, 26 -- and have no kids,
never been married.

She's now getting cold feet about a) getting married and b) the relationship
as a whole.

Now obviously, few of you know me, and none of you [except Eric and Kaarel]
have met her, so asking for advice is out.  So let me put this into more
general terms.

Does anyone have pointers for mixed-age relationships?  Kids? [I get along
great with them]

Does anyone have pointers for long-distance versions of said?

I received some very useful replies, and I will summarize these soon.  After
I get some sleep. :-)
