Menopause and dating

Use a walker, after overcoming total paralysis etc.  Husband left me when I became disabled.  Boyfriend passed a few years ago, and was crushed mentally again. Had menopause some years ago.  Am 55.  Will I ever find a bloke again???  Think I'm relishing my independence too much now........mind you, it's perfect for self isolation LOL!

PS  Have been breaking my heart crying, after writing the above.  I am convinced I'll never be in love again, and find that v v sad.  Am so embarrassed, but know it's good to talk, and I'd love some advice soon please?  Thanks and stay healthy guys!

I went onto a dating site and thought honesty was the best policy, but after 3 weeks I thought maybe its best not to be so upfront right at the begining and just tell people if they respond. But no contact either way. Im afraid Ive come to the same conclusion as you. 

I guess youve just got be who you are and wait for the right person to come along, it cant be forced. 

Absolutely.  Have tried dating sites extensively before.  They are always fine about my slight disability, then always either stand me up, or cancel the night before we meet!

Love my independence, and my boyfriend Billy was exactly the same = it was perfect because we were both 100% faithful. Was always very popular.  Life is good!  Great friends and family. Have decided, am OK either way if someone comes along, or not! Their loss haha!  Thanks.  Peace Carolewink
