Family Over Marriage At Age 71 - LOH #248

ozd in Ladies of Hive • 3 days ago

Hello, beautiful people! Welcome to my blog. It's a pleasure to have you in this space. Once again, welcome 🤗

Love is such a beautiful thing when experienced with the right person, and for many people the only way they get to formalize their love and commitment for each other is by getting married to each other. As they get to build their lives together, they grow to support each other emotionally, which in the long run helps them create a strong foundation for their relationship. Once they notice that their bond and love for each other begin to grow stronger, some might decide to start having their own family, to have kids of their own that they will get to nurture and provide a loving and stable environment for their children to thrive and flourish.

For couples that get to experience personal growth in their marriages, they get to learn about how to navigate different life's challenges together and create beautiful and lasting memories together. They get to share in their joys and sorrows, celebrate milestones, and build a beautiful and meaningful life filled with love, trust, and companionship.

So this week's question is Would you consider remarrying or having another partner if you are a 71-year-old widow/widower? Why or why not?

No, I would not consider getting remarried. At 71 I am very sure it would never cross my mind; this is not because getting married at that age is bad or something; this is because at that age I would have reached a stage in life where marriage isn't a priority to me anymore. While I understand that marriage can bring a sense of security and stability, I don't think I would feel the need for it at that point. I believe love can be found at any age, and people can certainly enjoy it to the fullest. However, for me, my focus would have shifted to how to spend more quality time with my remaining family members while I am still alive.

I am very sure that by that age I would have come to appreciate and cherish the relationships I have with my beloved family, and so I am sure what I would want to do is to prioritize nurturing those bonds with them while I still have some life left in me.

I agree with you, with the lifespan of people getting shorter, it feels right to spend it with those who matter most to us. Thank you for sharing your thoughts on this :)

If you've already had the love of your life, why would you look for another at that age? I think focusing, as you said, on family and the relationships with those members, would be much more satisfying.

Thanks for sharing and have a lovely day! !LADY

Muy de acuerdo contigo, sino me volvi a relacionar con alguien mas luego de mi divorcio que era mas joven aun no cumplía los 50, ya con 71 no creo, no por nada malo, sino que luego de tanto tiempo sola sin pareja, me acostumbre a mi solteria de nuevo, con la diferencia que ya tengo experiencia casa propia y con unos hijos que se algun dia se iran pero mientras tanto son mis compañeros para todo.

This was such a heartfelt and relatable reflection. I completely agree at a certain stage in life, the focus naturally shifts from seeking new romantic relationships to deepening the bonds
