Asking Eric: ‘I have lots of acquaintances, but no one I feel close to,’ lonely widower says
DEAR ERIC: I read Work, Life, Love, Balance’s letter, and thought I’d add the perspective of a senior (I’m 63). When I was this gentleperson’s age, I had exactly two dates from a dating service when they were the “thing” in the ‘80s, and each one was an unmitigated disaster. I stopped looking.
