If my wife goes first, ain't no way I will get married again. Live out the last of my years figuring if I want to either fish or hunt the next day. and we all said we'd never get married when we were teenagers too.
Just want to make folks smile, and spit coffee on their keyboard.

God doesn't create temporary people, you will spend eternity somewhere. Choose wisely.

Tell her about STDs. Things are different from 50 years ago. Yep. I've got a buddy that is a dermatologist and he has told me some stories about retirement homes. Those blue pills in the hands of post-menopausal hippies has bred some crazy stuff. Good luck to her though. I can't imagine going back to the dating pool after 14 years of marriage. My "game" is entirely non-existent. The only thing I know how to do anymore is turn a kids movie on the DVR and lock the door.

If I was a single lady in my "better" years, I'd hang out at the golf course
you know, nothing wrong with seven men who met on the internet going for a swim together

Some good info actually. Not a complete disaster which is very surprising. It's a topic most of us have to face at some point in our lives.

Only suggestion I have is for her to get involved in social activity groups for things she enjoys. If she likes bowling, join a bowling league, etc.

Yes. We run a construction company and she still comes in to the office everyday. She also has an RV and meets up with friends from Arizona and they follow each other around the country on road trips. There are many RV singles groups.

Seriously.....
If she has a computer, have her check out SeniorFriendFinders, a national organization, also having local social activities, lots of folks in the Dallas/Ft Worth area. NO dues, and most of the meeting initial activity is through other members, so its quite safe, Friends meeting friends. Open senior chat rooms.
You bettcha! oofta!

Everything after "If she has a computer" was very different than I thought it was gonna be.
