[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. The above poster wasn't me.

If it helps, I'm not even remotely interested in getting remarried, so I don't care about the availability of good men in my 50s.

And yes, I can see how kids and grandkids having to go to two different homes would be not ideal, but the decision I'm grappling with is not whether to stay or go, it's whether to do it now or later. There is no universe where I'd want to be with this person for the rest of my life. [/quote]

It's not just about less holiday time.or annoying logistics though. When divorced parents are old and seriously unwell, they need real help. Time-consuming, in-person stuff. Hospital stuff. And because I have to do this over two locations, I can't do anywhere near as much for my parents as I could if they were married. Yet, I'm the point person for each of them-- unlike a married couple who can at least somewhat rely on each other. And on top of that, two homes to maintain and senior-ify. Now, if you have tons of money to hire help, great. But what if you don't?[/quote]
