THAT'S ME! An email odyssey "Are you the gorgeous man I saw at Stanage and didn't have the nerve to speak to? One weekend late May/early June. Short dark hair, with a fab fringe. We stared for ages, you were at the first bouldering problem alone, in shorts. I walked down from climbing with support as I had an injured leg, then sat and ate my dinner alone, after taking off clothes I had on to protect while climbing. I am tall, slim & tanned with long hair tied up to climb, wearing red top and short red shorts in the sun. Couldn't keep my eyes off you but rooted to the spot! You finally left after putting on leathers and carrying your mat down to your bike at the bottom of the hill, pausing on the way and looking back. Where are you? Please get in touch." This is the ad I placed on a climbing website. Following the replies that were posted on the website an email odyssey began... ABOUT THE BOOK: Gary and Catherine nearly met on a rock in 2001 when they both went climbing at Stanage Edge in the peak District. What Catherine didn’t realise was that Gary had been watching her and was sitting on the rock waiting for her to come around the corner after her descent. When she saw him she didn’t know he was also interested. So when she heard a voice in her head saying “That’s the man you’ve been searching for” she didn’t know what to do. She advertised to find him on a climbing website and he answered. They emailed for 4 months before they finally met for a weekend’s climbing at The Roaches. They had a no physical contact agreement because past experience led them to believe that this complicates otherwise budding friendships. The relationship did develop because they found a mutual attraction. ABOUT THE AUTHORS: Relationships challenge us all. Intimate relationships offer the grandest opportunities for joyful exploration and also seem to carry the greatest burden of habitually destructive assumptions and expectations of the other gender. Catherine and Gary have found it an awful lot harder than they first imagined, but ten years on, they have a happy, fulfilling and dynamic relationship. They are now running workshops and producing online material to encourage similar couples. They have achieved things they never thought possible.
