"Muchas personas no cumplen los ochenta porque intentan durante demasiado tiempo quedarse en los cuarenta." SALVADOR DALI
AM I TOO OLDER TO FIND LOVE By Joe Kort, relationship expert. I’m 58 and have never had a lover, though I’ve always dreamed of having one. Surely I must be doing something wrong? But I feel I’ve waited too long, and that today’s gay culture won’t now be interested in an old guy. It seems that “attractive” and “successful” are the only attributes anyone cares about. Am I unique in this search? I live alone, have no relatives and few friends-most of them straight and most of them only at work. - Singled-In in Spartanburg Dear Singled-In, I want to help you become singled OUT! So many gay men tell me they want a relationship, but what they really want is a meaningful overnight relationship! They don’t consciously realize it, but their behavior says so, loud and clear. From childhood on up. Western culture is brainwashed to believe that we cannot be happy unless we can maintain a committed relationship. Well, that’s not so! Yes, it’s nice to have a partner, someone you can go through life with-if that is what you want. But it’s not for everyone.
1.- SWEDEN Based on current estimates, one in 10 Swedes will live to 100 years old. The anticipated surge of ageing citizens in the country will likely strain the world’s first universal social pension scheme, which was introduced in 1913. At the moment, however, Sweden is a comfortable place for its 2.4 million older people. Unlike the U.S. system, which is means-tested, the Swedish pension scheme is universal — all citizens of eligible age are guaranteed about $1,145 per month. The vast majority of older people in Sweden describe their lives as free and independent, tied with Norway for the second-highest percentage of the older population to do so.
