He is 56 years old. He is illiterate. He lost his life partner, his wife, who was died few days ago. But he want to marry with some woman. He has one young unmarried daughter and one unmarried son. He told that he does not care his children. He is seeking for a woman. I told him that he should not think about marriage in his that old age of about 56. He should think about his unmarried children and he should not forget his beloved wife. But no, he is looking for another wife in such old age. He is also jobless and poor man but he wants to be married. Is it doing well? should he married or not? kindly discuss and guide me that what should I suggest him.

56 isn't too old. As for the question of marrying or finding someone, I'm sure there a lot of single women his age (widowed, divorced or otherwise) who are also searching for that special someone. My grandfather remarried at that age and was able to father 2 more children. But it is a plus for him if he stands on his own feet, support his children and set his priorities straight. I think you are concerned about that, which is a valid concern, more than looking for a wife. You can tell your friend the following: 1) No one will want to marry someone who doesn't care for his own children because if they have children of their own, these will add to more problems. The same is true if the new woman wants children of her own with him. 2) No decent woman will want to marry someone who is jobless or at least looking for a job. Being married to someone means that they are mature enough to provide for themselves. 3) He has to set his priorities straight. He has children that might depend on him and he has to understand this. His wife, deceased as she may be, would want her children to flourish. It would be her wish that he would care for them as she did. I hope you get to help your friend.

How will he be able to support a family if he is jobless? You might want to advise your friend to first find a job before finding a wife. No woman would want a man who is like that.
