OP, you don't know this.  A Better Match ... may happen to be: someone who doesn't cook as well, who's not from a family you can as easily relate to, who's not as career ambitious. Maybe they won't happen to possess *as much* the traits you see and admire. BUT, in terms of communicating, getting along day-to-day, being with each other without stress-- another person may be a better match. A better match for him, obviously. Maybe they will be a better match for parenting. You do not know. And, it could be, that A Better Match could primarily happen because he will be older..

It is always sad though, when people we have grown to love or just be very fond of, leave our lives.[/quote]

This is true. I am a widow and have dated some wildy successful, intelligent, wealthy, attractive men, but am currently dating someone who is less successful on paper, but his personality and temperament are much more enjoyable than the other men. You just never know what might make someone feel good and happy.

I also agree with the PP who said that OP is insulting her son--like he is a loser who will never date again. [/quote]

Highlighting that the young lady is in fact a rarified (once in a lifetime) catch is not the same calling him a loser. Lightning strikes only once, maybe twice, as Stevie Nicks sang.[/quote]
