I just turned 70 this year, which was a blow in and of itself. I am a healthy and fit 70, but nonetheless it makes me feel like there is a limited runway left to land such a big plane. I fought myself for not coming to grips with this 10 or 15 years ago, when it would have felt perhaps a more natural progression. Part of the hesitation, aside from the kids, is The big question as to whether there really will be any more happiness out there, or just loneliness and figuring out a way back.

@londonex, I really appreciate how you are processing your concerns and totally understand, I am a not so healthy 74 years old and have been living my life like I have an expiration date on my head. I have met many people in my life that found love later in life and are very happy, it’s a different kind of relationship when you’re older because you know yourself better and hopefully you have learned a few good things about what you want and definitely not what you don’t want, I believe that women put a lot of pressure on themselves because it’s always been our job to attract the men so that being said, we worry about intimacy, I think men have similar issues but women are more forgiving. If you choose to stay where you are then it’s okay as long as you’re comfortable doing so but please don’t close the door just yet because today’s world 70 is the new 60’s so there’s still lots of room on your runway to change flights if you want to, best wishes.
