I got married very young and although everyone told me that I was destined for breakup, we were a couple that outlived almost everyone else. She has been gone for 2 years now and I feel as if I lost one of my appendages. You truly don’t ever know how much you love someone until you wake up next to a cold pillow. I never thought that I would have to look for someone again. My wife and I were soul mates and destined to be together forever. Who thought that forever would be so quick.

I lost the love of my life

I have children who are now on their own and have their own lives. They stop by to see me when they can, but it is always such a tense meeting that I have seen them less and less. They remind me so much of a time when I was with my wife. Our family is no longer the same, it is like something is missing. So, this New Year I have made the resolution to move on. It isn’t that I am moving on from her, I am just going to try to move on with my life. I know that she would not want me lonely. We hadn’t ever discussed it, her death was a shock, but I know that if she lost me I would want her days left to be filled with happiness.I have noticed that the dating sites are offering all sorts of promotions for the New Year. I am not the only one who is thinking of making a change. I can’t help but think that the person who I am destined to meet next may be making the same promise this year that I am. The problem is that I am not all that computer literate and I am not sure what dating sites are all about. I see so many of them, and don’t know how to choose, so I have started to read some top dating service reviews, or at least what I thought was top dating service reviews. What I have found is that they can’t seem to agree on anything.

My wife would want me to be happy

I am from a generation where all you have to go by in this world is your word. Your word doesn’t seem to mean much these days, especially on the internet. The more that I read the more I realize that not many people have much integrity when it comes to reviews. The top dating service reviews, I am beginning to realize are nothing more than paid advertising. So, I finally turned to my older son who has tried dating sites himself to ask where I should look around.He told me that the top dating service reviews can probably be found on the blog: Leading Dating Services. To that I had to ask “what is a blog?”. He merely shook his head. A blog apparently is where people give their honest opinion. Who knew? The top dating service reviews, he insists are from those who have tried the sites themselves, real people. So, I am on a mission to find a blog written by a senior like myself who is looking for the best site to find love.

Although the right dating site is important it is all up to fate

The problem with senior sites is that most of us are not computer tech savvy. I just, myself, figured out Facebook, so I thought that using a site connected to Facebook may be a good medium for me. I was happily surprised to find that a site named Tinder is heavily related and connected to my Facebook account. I wasn’t very happy to find out that most of the people on them are in their 20s and are looking for sex. Don’t get me wrong, sex would be nice, but I am looking for a more traditional relationship.I am not sure if the top dating sites reviews are not relative to me because I am in a different category, or if I am just different from those in my category, but I don’t seem to agree with them. Since I am finding no success I decided to tackle it a different way. I am going to go down the list of dating websites until I find one that suits me best. A lot of the sites offer a free membership, or allow you to look around. The only way to find one that I will find success on is to just get on and give it a try. When it comes right down to it there may be all sorts of new ways to find someone to love, but it is all the same as when I found my wife. You can have all the dates in the world, but you have to find that one person who is made for you. Finding her isn’t about using a dating site, it is about faith and fate. That is something I know in my heart. So, no matter what site I choose, it is all written in the stars.

The first few days of a relationship are amazing and everybody wishes they remain so till death do the parting shot. But things do not stay the same for long. The fire that kept two lovers warmth in their love life starts running out of oxygen. This is what we call ruts, yes, the elements of a breakup.

Constant arguments about the same issue over and over

In the first three months of any relationship, things tend to be on the right path. The kissing the cuddling and the sexual experience is nothing short of heavenly. But afterward, couples tend to become fond of each other, completing each others’ sentences and all the other things people do when they know each other too much. That is when your partner notices that your snoring behavior is a bit overboard. You get to see the real characters of your partner that you were so blind to the whole time you have been dating. My guess is that love is only blind for a period of three months tops.

If you find yourself in a situation where you and your partner literary argue hours on end about the same thing, then you are in a relationship rut. This is the part where hard decisions must be made if both of you want things to work out. You can handle the situation by taking time off the subject that leads to arguments, whether it involves money or household responsibilities. Keep the subject off for a few days by pushing yourself to engage in those things that both of you love. When you revisit the matter, try to listen to each other but do not necessarily find quick answers to it.

The seemingly infinite daily grind rut

After the big day, the honeymoon phase begins. This is the part where dreams seem to reach their climax for couples. The whole point is ambiguous because not only do partners seem to have the moment of their lifetime during their honeymoon, but they also seem to have the only big moment in their love life. Once the kids start coming through, the household responsibilities, the mortgage payments, endless bills and school fees, all hell break loose. The best solution here is to have some hope that sooner or later, the storm will cease its rage. Start building and comparing wish lists for days to come, which will remind you that all the grind will soon halt once the kids become independent and the debts start settling down.

Sexual rut, the mother of all ruts

They say a normal human being thinks about sex every seven seconds. It is not clear whether it applies across genders, but this is an interesting case. It seems like when two normal lovers get used to each other a lot, the number doubles. It then begins to wildly multiply to hours and days when things are no longer normal. Sexual excitement sometimes seems to fizzle out. The only way couples can restore the sizzle is by participating in more thrilling stuff outside the bedroom like adventures, amusement parks and the like.
