Focus on the positive-What good is happening?

Nice! Good luck 👍

I had this stupid idea that dating at my age would be easier. After awhile I realized that the vast majority of single people in their mid to late 40s are divorced and the reason that the vast majority of divorces happen because one or both are complete schmucks which really narrows down the pool of good people (for both men and women)

The area in which I live is not exactly a target-rich environment for me. It's very conservative, and many folks in my age bracket move south after retirement (I'm 63). I was about ready to throw in the towel, but my daughter is 12, so moving is not an option.

My friend is 14 years younger than me and has 3 kids, two in college and one a sophomore in high school. She has said she wants to stick around here for a bit, so we'll see how things go. She's a runner, and has done ultra-marathons up to 50 miles. As I have no desire to run that far, I volunteered to be support staff at her races :hihi:

Good luck to you as well! I hope to report back in a year that she and I are doing well together :)
