[quote=Anonymous]I LOVED being single and find marriage a challenge. (I married in my late 30s.) But I’ll be honest, I would hate to age without either husband or kids. As long as I was healthy, I’d be fine, but I wouldn’t want to be 65 with cancer and not have someone around to help me. I guess it would depend, too, on how tightly connected I was to friends or other family. Would nieces or nephews feel close enough to help me when I’m 85 and they’re in the full swing of their own careers, family life and possibly elder care for their own parents? My own friends at that age might not be around or in a position to be helpful. Obviously, wealth would compensate for some of that. [/quote]
