[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know three incredible women, one 40, one 44, one 47. The first experienced major trauma when her husband died in a drowning accident at age 30. They were newlyweds and trying for a baby. It took her nearly 10 years to settle into a new identity. She threw herself into work. She's now open to dating but her habits are such that she works 12 hour days and spends the rest of the time taking care of now aging parents and socializing only a little bit. She's open to being set up but so far no luck. The second is in a very long distance relationship. They got married, tried for a kid, it didn't work and then he moved away and are in a separation of sorts. She's also a workaholic and amazing at her job. Her marriage seems to be crumbling but she just doesn't prioritize it or resolving the situation. She lives alone for all intents and purposes. The third is stunning and smart, but always did too much too soon and drove the guys away. I tried to point this out to her gently 7-8 years ago but she insisted this was just how she was. She eventually started baking cookies for my now husband and bringing them to his work without me knowing, so our friendship faded. So, three women, three different scenarios. I'm still rooting for all three, but they seem in a sort of inertia that's hard to break. [/quote] The third is the only person who never married. [/quote] Yes, and none are 50. My point was that there isn’t one reason someone may be 50 and single.[/quote] This wasn't a discussion about people who are single at age 50. It was a discussion about people who have been single for 50 years.[/quote]
