I’ve been listening since you both started your podcast….love it.I just turned 70 ( how the hell has that happened) and having lost my husband at 50 I’ve now been on my own for 20 years (again, how the hell has that happened) I never imagined my self living this part of my life alone and miss my husband so much and I definitely miss male company but like Tessa I enjoy my time alone, I have marvellous friends and family but I although I’d love to be living with my husband as I enter this new decade I really don’t want a replacement. As Tessa said someone calling to go to the movies or a show ( Bernie Inn 😋takes me back) on a Tuesday night would be perfect 😊 but I’m far too used to my home being my sanctuary and if, but I really can’t see how I’d meet someone now but if I did I most certainly wouldn’t want to live with them I’d just want an easy going companionship. Like Tessa said “ is that too much to ask “ I rather think it is as I think men of my age want someone more permanent.
