Just because we are over 50, 60, 70 does not mean we are done with living, or with love.
After thirty years of marriage, at 51, I became a divorcee. I was alone for the first time in my life. It was soul-shattering and I got on dating sites just to see if anyone would want me. I had not dated since I was 19. I called it the "Wide World of Men" and it was an eye-opening experience.
Two dating sites, one matchmaking service, twenty-seven first dates, fourteen second dates, three exclusive relationships later, I remarried after being single for three years, at 54. Sadly, it was a difficult marriage, and fourteen years later, I was divorced again. I wanted companionship, so at 68, I got back out there.
