Growing Old and Single? What Holds You Back?

Growing old and single. Why would anyone want that?

Most importantly, why are you still single? Do you believe the women around you are too shallow or self-centered to date? Maybe you are afraid that a twenty or thirty-year-old age gap is too big a number to convince you to try again.

Whatever your reasons for refusing to try again, it can’t be worse than denying you the happiness in life you deserve.

If you haven’t tried it yet, here are three reasons why foreign matchmaking is right for you.

1. Grow old with a family.

Imagine. You share your good days and bad days with your wife and your children in old age. Do you remember when your grandfather and grandmother held you in their arms? You can share that same warm feeling with your grandchildren.

Is it worth it when you live your golden years heading into a retirement home with no one to visit you except other family members who are busy with their own family or affairs?

Sometimes, you cannot choose the family you are born into. However, you can choose a significant other who shares your values and shapes your children to emulate them.

2. You would want to grow old with your best friend.

Nothing is worse than facing the world alone. Of course, there are the so-called lone wolf types out there. But don’t kid yourself that it’s “fine to be alone.” Are you sure about that? I am reminded of Tom Hanks’s character in the movie Castaway wherein to cope with the loneliness of being stuck on a deserted island he personified a volleyball as his companion.

Everyone needs someone. A wife isn’t just a marriage partner, she’s the one who knows you more than anyone else in the world and that is someone worth growing old with.

3. You’ll live longer.

Studies indicate that married men live longer than single men. There are correlations made that state that the longer the couple is married, the higher the chance he will outlive his unmarried peers.

Other benefits include a longer survival period against prostate and bladder cancer, a higher chance of survival against heart attack, and an overall increase in physical and mental health. Having a wife will influence your choices that promote better overall health.

Wouldn’t you be better off married?

No one is happy growing old and alone. There are many men out there that wonder if it’s too late to get married or that they can never find someone they can relate to in the dating pool. Maybe they are concerned with age gaps if they do find someone.

Forget these thoughts. You deserve to live with someone by your side.

You deserve to have a chance to start a family or start again. Having the feeling of being with your children, grandchildren, and other relatives in your golden years is the best feeling in the world.

Being able to grow old with that special someone — your wife, also known as your best friend. She will be sure to relate and watch over you every step of the way.

Lastly, you’ll live longer than if you were by yourself.

No one wants to be alone. So if you are currently single then you need to take responsibility for yourself and make that first move. If you aren’t signed up with a foreign matchmaking service, start today.
