Ideas to meet other singles over 60. 😔

If I should keep seeing a guy that I met online dating. He’s nice enough and lets me pick where we go to eat or have a drink, opens my car door, gives me compliments. Always responds right away when I text. The issue is he has two full time jobs. And takes care of his parents who are in declining health. So we are extremely limited in the time we can spend together. We’ve only been going out for a month. I have a therapist due to the fact I was married to a covert narcissist for 34 years. It was brutal to say the least. So I’m really focused on making sure I don’t set myself up for disappointment and or failure. My therapist tells me he is making a choice to be busy. But I’m not sure that’s fair. I don’t expect to monopolize his time it’s early days still. But we are limited to an hour on Friday and four hours on Saturday because he’s so busy. I love his sense of dedication and responsibility. Something my ex would never have done. What are your thoughts? TIA. 😊

Edited to update the situation. I’ve set my boundaries and will see how it plays out. This was not to punish anyone. I respect this guy. We were at a pivotal point in our relationship.This is more about my self worth and taking ownership in my own behavior. Thank you all. I really didn’t have to do much. As he felt it too.

I 60F moved from San Diego to the midwest 11 years ago with my ex for his career. Fast forward and we are divorced and I’m trying to date and meet someone special. I’m so lost and frustrated. I don’t have family we moved to a small town outside Ann Arbor. When I say small I mean tiny. You can drive from one side of the town to another in 5 minutes. I have no family here and feel so lost. Which seems to hinder my ability to connect with people on a deeper level. I have gone out a few times but haven’t met anyone yet I’m connected with. Also I’m struggling on how to even find someone. I tried OLD and it seems everyone is looking for sex. I’m definitely into have an adult sexual relationship but I need to find someone to connect with first. I’m open to suggestions or ideas on how to make this happen for myself.
