Hi. My best friend and I call each other several times a week and we get on so well. He lives 240 miles away from me, he's a widower and still mourns his dear wife. I've supported him as much as possible considering we can't meet up very often and always will. He's very lonely and so am I. We are so close that I do sometimes wish we could be together, but neither of us can move because of certain commitments. I've been alone after divorce for 25 years, that long because I was very unhappy with my cruel and selfish husband. My friend and I have recently been talking about how nice it would be to be held and have someone to go out with, etc etc. I feel so very much alone all the time and wish he lived closer, but sadly nothing can be done. There are no answers but it would be nice to hear your opinions. We're both in our early 70s and have known each other since we were 18.
