As a man who became a widower at age 54, let me tell you about the reversal of social dynamics. I’m healthy, 6’2”, normal weight and debt-free. There are lots of women in that age group that are single, mostly divorced. I actually got hit on at my wife’s wake. I won’t go into further detail because it feels to me like boasting but if a man wants to know what a 22year-old girl on a destroyer feels like, he should try being single, healthy and available at 53.

First off, sorry for your loss but your “22-year-old girl on a destroyer” comment was funny, even though it was somewhat sad in the larger sense of where our culture is.
I’ve got the opposite problem. I’m also a widower, 52, 6’1” 210lbs, in good shape and active, financially secure (debt free in 4 years), relatively good looking (or so I’ve been told), Christian. Yet I can’t even find a woman to date. Seems all the good looking ones (slim, long hair, pretty) are married and I can’t even find one who would be acceptable to explore as a potential.
Where are they hiding?

I've heard that some women actually read the obituaries to see who is newly single. My husband has a relative who is always trying to matchmake, and he's put the word out already that if he survives me she is to leave him alone.
