And I wanted to explore whether this kind of love happens because of luck, karma, or accident, or if there are interior changes one can make or steps one can take to connect with a partner at any age.
Jane Fonda, 69, recently started a relationship with Lynden Gillis, 75, a retired management consultant, and wants to make a “sexy erotic movie about people over 70.”Īs I listened to these stories, I felt.hope. But during the past month, I’ve talked to a dozen women, ranging from their late 40s to their 90s, who’ve found deep love-a soul mate-long after they thought that was possible.Įllen Burstyn was alone for 25 years before she fell in love, at 71, with the man with whom she now lives, who is 23 years younger. This depresses me, and I wonder if my mother’s experience was a fluke. When I go to parties or events, there are 13 single women and one single guy, and he’s usually gay. I’m afraid that in my 60s, after two divorces, such love may be behind me, as the pickings get slimmer every year. But sometimes I ache for a partner to check in with, talk, snuggle, and grow spiritually with. I love my house, my work, and my kids, and every day I’m grateful for good health and what I see as a fortunate life. I’ve been unattached for seven years and have become very good at it. They’re still devoted to each other as my mother moves into her 90s, which fills me with awe. She asked if he wanted to play, and they became inseparable. A widow for nine years, she spotted Harold Lapidus, a retired doctor, standing alone at a bridge club. My mother met the love of her life when she was 84. Just ask actress Ellen Burstyn and a host of other women who found themselves in the heat of romance when they least expected it. Whether you're 35 or 75, it's never too late to fall madly (or gently and even sacredly) in love.
