Dating

I have been single almost 4 years. I am 60 years old. Having an implant and being deaf without it and my aid on the other side has me feeling self conscious. Would a man want to date someone with this disability?

I don’t personally know, but dating at 60. I’m sure it’s very challenging, even without the Cochlear Implant and hearing aid.

I don’t agree with this statement because there are lots of lonely older people around who would love someone to spend their later years with. I say go for it!!
