'better to be alone than in bad company!' A dicho my grandmother would often say to the women in her family. Wise, very wise. So, don't think of it as rejection, they did you a favor! So funny though...card carrying liberal. Its funny because a friend of mine was planning to set me up on a blind date...I knew his political views, I told her hell no! But, but..he's a nice guy, she said, I said frikn hell no..I saw our first date flash before my eyes...MAGA rally? Shite, I want to enjoy my retirement years, not attach myself to someone who alligns themselves to hate, bigotry, racism. Life is to damn short!
Give yourself some time and be careful out there, meeting people is done mostly through social media...if interested then you meet for coffee...then, it progresses from there. Well, that's what my younger son tells me. Anyway, finding someone that share the same interest, values and beliefs just makes life a hell of a lot easier. Yet, being single isn t so bad, I find it to be liberating.
Sorry, I dont mean to be flippant, my singleness is a result of a divorce decades ago and I've never regretted the decision. I see my parents marriage...they thoroughly love each other, enjoy doing things together; my father absolutely cherishes, values, respects my mother. They've been married 65 years! Yes, It's different when ones spouse passes, and I'm deeply sorry for your loss, and its' great that you're opening a new chapter in you life and I wish you all the best.
Paz.
