Lonely mature wants a man

Hello, my name is Barbara. I've had a few relationships. Never been married or engaged, and I don't want children. Does that bother me? Not really. I love my freedom, but I hate loneliness. I'm looking for someone to spend cozy evenings with.

At my age, many men are already taken; they're the nice guys who simply have a great time with their first love. Unfortunately, that didn't happen for me. But I hope I can have a good time with a man.

I do have "single" listed on my profile, but it's a bit different. My husband has dementia and has been in a nursing home for years. Things have gotten to the point where he doesn't recognize me or the children anymore. I visit him every week; it's a real ordeal to see your own husband deteriorate like that. I don't have a married life anymore; what I'm looking for is a man who can accept that I'm still married on paper. I can't bring myself to get a divorce; it feels like a stab in the back for my husband.

I've worked hard all my life and now it's time to enjoy.
