I'm very lucky, I am retired at 68, I have a good husband and a cute kitty. I have lots of hobbies. But I don't have a woman friend to go out with. My hubby doesn't want to do any of the above, but he has asthma and sciatica pain. My close friends died 10 years ago. At the Seniors Centre, the women there want to just stay local. They are a lot older but actually when my mom was alive, at 80 years old, she would go everywhere to do stuff not just stay local, so it's not necessarily an age thing. I live in New Westminster, BC and I'm fed up of just doing stuff local.
I had, at first, stayed in touch with two women at the local college where I worked. They are still both working there. However, one the women is not interested in walks, coffee, museums, craft fairs, etc. She loves getting together to drink at a restaurant or a pub or at her home. I can't drink anymore. I actually I had a problem with alcohol so I don't drink at all.
The other woman is fine with meeting me for lunch while she is still working at the college where she and I work(worked). However, she told me that once she retires from the college, she will not be meeting me anymore. She lives quite far away and even though I mentioned we could meet halfway, she said, nope, still too far even though I would be travelling as well to meet her!
I just would like to have one woman friend to do stuff with outside of New Westminster, BC.
