Having been single for almost 10 years, I have begun to consider the possibility I may never find that special someone to ride off into the sunset with. I am open to and even look for the illusive friend and or partner. What happens as we get older? Do we get so set in our ways we cannot include anyone else into our lives. Does the Internet become just a candy bowl of endless possibilities so why stay in one spot long enough to find out what someone is really about? Oops, there's a flaw. Move on. We all have baggage, scars and road rash. Especially seniors.
I teach a class where people are asked to list the top four values in their life. The top two are almost always "family" and "loving and being loved'. Even big, strong, strapping men list loving and being loved. If we all want it so much, why are so few willing to stay around long enough to find it? If you need a valentine, I'm right here.
An untouched, unloved infant will die. I wonder if the same is true for us seniors?

Canyon, I so understand what you are saying, I am one senior that is staying around. Long time ago I faced my flaws, imperfections and so called baggage, it's all part of life we all have them. I'll accept theirs if they accept mine, now it's just a matter of time. But I'm willing to hang in there. I also feel as you do. Anyone need a valentine I'm here. We never know what may be right around the corner.

I am in agreement with you both on this. I SO want someone in my life. I have (going on) 9 yrs of stored up love, compassion, caring and giving and no one will really 'take the time' to get to know me or ask or even really try!!!! aaaahhhhhhhh How sad, how really sad that this is like this for us at this age. We ALL have so much to share and give.
