Hi. I'm Autumninlife. I tried dating services but no answers. I really am in the autumn of life and my youth is way back there. I am single, living in a mid-size city but lack wheels so I don't get out much. I am not into bars anymore and too much drinking doesn't have the charm it once had. I'm quite lonely but I guess this is my lot in life. As I've been told I chose this way of life. I'm 57 with only a HS education but, I'm smarter than a lot of college grads. I find solace in my search for spiritual and emotional answers. My cat and I live day by day waiting for it all to end. I'm on SSDI after going thru a very dark time. I have chronic insomnia which meds help to a minimum. It's been hard accepting being a gay man, always hiding. I do enjoy classical music, traveling, tranquility, B/W movies and my apartment. I have no clue as to what the future holds and when I think of it I get melancholy and depressed. :icon_sad:
