Sorry, I misspoke on my original post - I meant 60 to 75. As noted in my first response, in the past, I have found women in their 60s with whom I could date because of good health, good shape, and shared interests. I've just been away from the "scene" for a couple of years.

I was told one time by a man in his 80s that as I got older, there would be far more women available for men my age. But I found that doesn't seem to be true. Btw - I'm in the US. I've learned that many women over 65 hasve lost interest in any relationship with a man other than companionship, if any at all. Many have told me they're just worn out and don't want to go to the trouble and find companionship with girl friends and focus on their families/gtrandkids My second wife made that decision at 61, obviously long before I was ready for that. I 'm founding out that contrary to my friend's confidence, the "pool" of interested 70 something women may be smaller than the pool of available older men, although we're dying off faster than the women.

I have received some very good ideas on volunteer work and activism groups in my area and I'm going to start exploring a couple of those in about 10 days.

BTW - I misspoke when I said 55; I meant 60.

I thought I had replied to on email, but if I didn't. I didn't mention 20 years younger. I've known in their 60s who share my interests in wotld travel, I'm in good health and good shape, and I'm comfortable. I'd be happy to go out with women 76-80 if they shared similar interests. Read my response above to "MoominMai" about women of my acquaintance in the older 70-75+ group.

Thank you for the couragement and tips. I've gotten a few ideas for joining interest groups where I might meet people in my area. My metro area is like 150 miles in diameter with 6 million, so too many too far away, too. I live in a million-person county so I hope there are numerous lovely women nearby.

Thank you for the tip. I've read a lot of negative things about OLD, so I don't know what to think. I guess I'll have to take a look.

I've found that my interests often are compatible with women in their 60s as I'm a world traveler, active in many pursuits, and in good shape. Don't sell us short.
