Description

Annie says: It is absolutely possible to find love as a senior! Age is just a number, and you’re only as old as you feel.

Dear Annie: I broke up with my ex-boyfriend about two years ago after being together for a little over 20 years. We’re both seniors now. Despite the breakup, I’ve continued to reach out to him on and off when I need certain things, and he always comes back. The pattern is predictable: I call him, we reconnect, I eventually get frustrated or upset, and then we stop talking again.
The truth is, I don’t love him anymore, but he insists he still loves me. I think I keep going back to him because he feels familiar and safe, and I know for a fact he hasn’t been with anyone else.
Here’s my dilemma: I would love to find real love again, but at my age, the idea of starting over feels overwhelming. How can I break this cycle with my ex and open myself up to finding someone new? Is it even possible to find meaningful companionship at this stage in life? -- At This Stage in Life
