Ans: Dear Ashok,
I am truly sorry for your loss...
What you are looking for is something people used to put out as an ad in the newspaper...well, you might try your luck through the old route as well.
Another place that I see 60+ individuals find like-minded people is exclusive trips organized for senior citizens. You can go onto the internet to get more information on this. This will enable you to travel and see places and also connect with similar people with similar interests.
You can also join organizations like Rotary where people meet and who knows you might come across someone who shares your thoughts and views.
There are also Dating apps for the older population which again you can try and figure out if that is the place that you want to explore.
What you are looking at is perhaps driving away your loneliness and what I am suggesting is ways in which you can connect with different people which may lead to you finding a companion for yourself.

All the best!

Ans: Dear Bibhanshu,
Thank you for asking a question to which I can only say that living without someone dear is difficult BUT with the right support system in terms of family, friends, work, social life...things start to become better maybe not easier.
Over time, you will start to learn how to keep yourself cheerful and bring new hope to yourself.

All the best!
