It's pretty common knowledge that more men than women die off as we get older.

 

True, fewer people are smoking, but men are always going to do more dumb and dangerous things to get themselves hurt or killed... so, would you say it's a pretty cockamamie idea for a man to just take better care of himself, until he's around retirement age, when his male competitors start to die off, leaving a larger pool of eligible women for him to pick from?

If you're thinking dating is hopeless, it's not. It just takes a lot of work and a bit of technique.

 

Discussing the original post.

 

I think men desire women primarily for sexual fulfillment. As time goes on this transitions into emotional support and stability.

 

If one desires a family, usually a spouse is involved as well as the children.

 

You are basically suggesting a life of singlehood, which assumes that one does not desire any of the above. This is uncommon, but some people feel this way.

 

I would think when you get to the age of retirement and people are dieing off, one would become lonely. I see very little dating happening at that time.
