spicerp Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 From my observations it seems to me that, if you reach your early to mid fifties and have never found love you can still find it. If you are in your late fifties or older and have had relationships in the past, you can still find another. But if you are in your late fifties or older and have never found love then you have really had it. Or does anyone have any examples to prove me wrong?
CarrieT Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 I have a great example. A good friend of mine just turned 78. She had a brief and abusive marriage in the 40s and 50s and told me she that married because he raped her and made her pregnant and it was what was expected of her back then to keep from being shamed by her family. Now in a nursing home, she has met an 82 year old and they are blissfully in love and getting married this June. Confiding in me, she has told me that she has experienced her first oral sex and her first orgasm. At 78. She is over the moon and I couldn't be happier for her. It is never too late.
InJest Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 Carrie, that is ****ing beautiful. I am vomiting and crying tears of joy at the same time.. 1
FitChick Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 My aunt, in her early 70s, dated a man the same age from her hiking club. They are both very fit and active. She said she had a fling over a period of months where they often had sex four times in one day! If you are older, you need to make sure you are in good health and look as good as possible.
g450 Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 Yeah it does happen. I think a lot of people get married the first time for the wrong reasons. He was infatuated or p-whiped. She wanted a child and security etc. Or it just felt like the right thing to do. Old people are more prone to know exactly what they want or dont want. Especially ones that have already been married. Or so they say. Ask my XW.
