Question - (19 July 2010) 2 Answers - (Newest, 19 July 2010)
A female United States age , anonymous writes:

I just broke up with a guy who wanted to get physical too early in our relationship. We've only known each other for five weeks. He was a mommas boy and said he loved me and wanted to be with me forever. I'm losing faith that I'll ever find Mr. Right, especially at my age.

DoubleM agony auntWell, I think there is a lot of missing information here. A person's life experiences, religion (if any), upbringing, desires, morals and so much more can pertain to the situation. As a 62-year-old male, previously married, even recent affairs over the past several years usually progress to physical within a few days or weeks - or if not by then - just end.

Since my recent affairs tend to eventually end anyway, albeit on very friendly and often lasting terms, I understand the difficulty in finding a suitable long-term match in later life. Unfortunately, I'm not rich, tall, politically powerful nor do I possess some other attributes in high demand. Also can't sing in tune, but do not consider even a brief relationship, if enjoyable, has been a waste.

Yet I strive to remain open to the possibility of longevity, and seek a woman who is not only sexually but emotionally compatible - as well as very forgiving.

Since women typically want a man to change into something they are not, it's difficult to maintain a totally compatible relationship in later life. Older men, and I think older women as well, do not readily change their "spots," but we must be accepting and somewhat adaptable - or possibly live our final years in sad solitude.

Women have remarkable intuition, and you are certainly justified to wait until you meet an honorable and attractive man to make love again. Be prudent and wise, use that intuition, but also give a chance if you see potential. Do not give up.

jules19 agony auntYour age doesnt have nothing do to with finding Mr Right, at any age if you are not ready or comfortable with being physically involved with a guy so soon into the relationship then that is fine, and he needs to accept that.

There is Mr right out there for everyone for any age. JUst enjoy meeting new people.
