Still others have given up on finding that special someone or think they're too old for love. Love & Successful Aging When You're 70+ and Single draws on upbeat, personal stories from individuals in their 70's through 90's who are in exclusive, committed relationships with a significant other while living independently. The true stories are based on surveys sent to retirement communities, senior centers, friends and acquaintenances. What makes Love & Successful Aging When You're 70+ and Single unique among books dealing primarily with sex and the older, single adult is that it addresses the social and emotional needs of those widowed, divorced, or never-married who comprise this specific group, inspiring them to open their minds and hearts to love, joy and companionship.
