Your story is similar to mine. I reconnected with my HS sweetheart after a 37-year separation, and we've now been married for nine years. Thankfully, he already was a democrat among many other things that we have in common despite taking completely different paths in our lives. (I was a hippie, he was a marine engineer.)

Best of luck to you. I love these kinds of stories.
