You are never too old to live, laugh, and love, it is just a state of mind, there are so many things out there you can do to stay mentally, physically and spiritually active, I pray that you will have a new mindset, and feel God's love because He is always with us, we are never alone, get involved in your communities, get out more, it is better to be alone than to be with the wrong person or miserable with someone who doesn't love you, you have a lot to be thankful for, let go of the past, the negative thoughts and concentrate on possibilities, new adventures, the sky is only the limit,we never know what can happen in a moment, everything can change in one day, so stay strong, stay encouraged, and dont give up on finding love again, good things happens to those who wait on God!God bless you all! :)

Talking old age of a number. I put down 18 as my age although I have 35 years of experience..
Getting old is not the hard part, its being alone is the one of another thing.

I never in a million years thought I would be sitting in my old age looking for someone to be with. Lost my husband to Cancer 4 years ago and this has been the loneliest time of my life. I have my Son and his fiance that live with me, but its not the same as having that special someone to share life with. Anyone else out there feel this way?


Hi Judy, I have been a widow for almost 10 years now. The first three years I stayed in a deep dark hole.. not living... just existing. My kids kept me going. Time helps for sure. After I retired, I moved to the city, so I didn't have to sing...

"When you're alone and life is making you lonely,
You can always go... downtown."
- Petula Clark

I'm not lonely... just old. laugh But I'm a romantic.. I'm still hoping to fall in love again.

Sorry that you feel that way. I'm gutted for you. It must make you feel lost. I can only imagine how it feels. I saw an article, where Dick Van Dykes ex had died. He lived with her. He mentioned he would have deteriorated, as he hates being alone. If He, and any other widow can do it, I'm sure YOU can, but I know it will take quite some time. I wish I knew what to say, yet I get lost for words, because I can almost feel the grief coming from you. All isn't lost and nothing lasts forever, but memories do. I couldn't blame you for not wanting to talk to anyone, at times, because grief is such a heavy burden. flowers

Old age?

Hmmm... I prefer to call it "vintage level".

I've been by myself longer than I've been in a relationship and I don't feel lonely at all... not that I wouldn't mind companionship every now and then, but one chooses to be lonely and shut off from others. As everything else in life, it's a choice. I choose to take an oil painting class, not because I'm lonely, but because I've always wanted to learn how to use oil paint and I've done all the other media--watercolor, pencils, markers, acrylics, gouache and now it's time for "vintage level": oil.

Last year, I traveled to Europe by myself because I had a couple of bucket list items to tick off the list, not because I thought I'd be starring in my own mid life romantic comedy about finding love on the Eurostar. I do things which interest me and fuels my passion in life, not because I'm desperately searching for someone keep me from being in my own company. If I waited for someone else to come around in order to start living, I'd be in a nursing home still regretting that I didn't do what I'd always longed to do because I was waiting on someone to rescue me from myself.

One thing is for certain: I'd much rather be alone and have peace in my home, my heart and my head than be with someone who gets in my face and says "f u" to me and it's going to take the state to come in and split us up, which is going on with someone very dear to me. It's a trade off and there is no guarantee that the person one finds is someone who is truly compatible with one--hence all of the divorces that happen.

I don't feel old either, probably cuz I have 14 yr old twin daughters. They sorta keep me young. Good luck in your search.
