I saw the light and got divorced in 1989. Been very happily single ever since.

I’ll live to a hundred for sure!!

I'm sorry, but I don't see the problem about men dying younger generally.
Surely that means more women left in the world, which can only be a good thing :)

No, seriously, I believe the current statistics show that married men live longer than single men or widowers, so surely that means women are a good sort to have around?
