[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My dad is 70 and a widower. He has said a lot of widows he has met aren’t interested in new relationships with men.[/quote] My dad moved into a 55+ community at 73, about 8 years after my mom died. When he moved in, he said single women outnumbered single men 8:1 – he was a very hot commodity as a healthy, fit, attractive guy. Everyone had a widow friend they wanted to fix him up with, but he wasn't interested in dating. Eventually, he met a very nice widow and they enjoy each other's company and travel frequently, but they have zero intention of living together or remarrying. There's no attempt at blending families and no caregiving obligation beyond what you'd do for a good friend. It seems to be a good balance. [/quote]
