No, I knew him vaguely from work, always thought he was nice, attractive, etc. I figured I was too old for him.

I have spent time with him twice now and he seems like he fits me perfectly.

When the OP says she KNOWS someone or has KNOWN SOMEONE ALL HER LIFE she really means that she recognizes him from somewhere or knows OF him via another friend or family member. Apparently does not mean she'd done anything more than ogle him.

No that is not true. Last two men I dated I grew up with. One I have been close friends with since we were 8. His family treats me like one of the family. Even still today. The most recent I have been friends with since high school.

This guy I vaguely know him and said that was the case. I knew his name, company be works for and have talked more with his younger brother.

Why are you so disagreeable? It is like you try to pick fights and drama within my posts.

I'd review the last year of your posts and the responses.

That's like spoiling the ending to a movie.

How does reviewing the posts of what went wrong in my previous relationships, going to disclose any red flags with this guy?

He has no criminal record, his own house, no kids, etc. in other words I have tried to rule out all potential obstacles that previous relationships experienced.

He has no criminal history, no kids, never been married, no contact with exes, non-smoker, rarely drinks, his parents were not divorced, his dad died several years ago. He has lived in same place 9 years. Worked at his job 10 years. The gym is his stress relief and only vice. He eats healthy, likes to be active... I see no red flags. When on vacation and a gym is available, I spend 3 hours a day in the gym. If I had one at home.. That would be my happy place also.
Other than another friend of a friend, the problem here is "he is a contractor at work" which poses a problem when he becomes the next failure. You will still have to deal with him at work.
