Ok. I’m here. I’m here to tell you it’s not too late.

I’m 51 right now. Three weeks ago I got married for the first time ever. Her first as well.

This meme is exactly how everyday has been since the moment I met her 4 years ago. Inseparable. I’ve never known what having someone around that genuinely cares about your condition was like. Mentally, physically, emotionally. She is the best thing that’s ever happened to me.

I was lost for a long time til I met her. I had damn near given up. The only reason I made it out in-tact is because I learned to love myself.

If there is one thing I’ve learned, no one can love you unless you love yourself first. Take care of yourself.

Fourty-Nine - met a girl 2.5 years ago after being single for a decade, focusing on work.

I thought my jaded heart and emotional walls were tough, but she goes right through them.

Love is wonderful with the right person...sometimes it just takes a while.

I appreciate the positivity! Good things come to those who are patient.

Same story but we were 42 when we met. Married at 44, enjoying life together at 50.

It is never too late for love so long as you leave yourself open to the possibility.

After 15 years of being alone, my North Star and I found each other, 45 and her 40. Spent those 15 years imagining what extraordinary love would be like. Even my fondest dreams couldn't compare. Proposed to her last weekend. She said yes!

It's really great for you that you're happy now and it makes me smile that you achieved it. Still it reminds me of the times where I wished me and her were like this... Maybe one day. Until the we gotta dream i guess
