Sounds like a multi-talented lady. She probably has the sense to realize that you feel very strongly about her but is just tired of playing games - which is what you did even though at your age you did not need to anymore. So, now she's showing independence huh? Well, get brave, stand up and fight for what you want - it's in your court now and you need to make that basket. Now's the time to pull out all of your reserves and plan a fantastic dinner of her favorite dish and be as romantic as you can be. Just because you know each other for so long, does not mean that those special things can be left unsaid - they need to be said even more now to really sink in, so if you want her, swallow your pride and run, don't walk to be near her as much as you can. Just because she can do her own flowers, does not mean she won't appreciate some from you, dummy - treat her like a woman, not superwoman who can do everything herself. She can't make herself happy, you might be able to do that, so what have you got to lose? Try for it and if it does not work, your old enough to handle rejection - which is probably why you hesitated so long to begin with - so armor yourself to accept a no, but you might also be pleasantly surprised, but only if you dare to take that step. OK, I've said enough, the rest is up to you. P.S. Good luck, and Belated Happy New Year!
Roar or Meow... which is it going to be???
If you want to grow older with this fine lady, tell her!
At least she will know your still thinking of her !
