I've seen some Men who died without Wife or Partner, why?

i think it is their own choice..sometimes they had experienced something that they think that it will happen to them again just like your post about the old woman in the bus..or sometimes they have loved someone in the past but they have lost them and they can't continue on and love again..

He might be gay. And he might have a life's partner that you just don't know of. Gay or straight, I would hope he has someone to share his golden years with. I imagine he's just private.

Some ppl just have no desire to get married...and just because you personally have not seen this man with a partner (male or female) doesnt mean he doesnt have one....maybe he does and they just like to remain extremely private about it...

Oh well there are any number of reasons that he could still be single. Perhaps he's shy about women who are dateable. Perhaps he is waiting for a woman to make the first move. Perhaps he is gay. Perhaps he has not met the right woman yet. Perhaps he has met the right woman, but for whatever reason she was unavailable. Perhaps that's just not something he is interested in. The best way to find out would probably be to ask him, thought that might not be politic.

I know a lot of older single men. Most of them have been in long-term relationships with people that they intended to eventually marry. Sometimes, the woman decides to go a different way. They could have different plans for the future (one might want kids, the other not; one might want to move across the country to pursue a career, the other might not want to join). He could be gay. He could be too quirky to find someone to 'put up' with him. He may be too involved in his career to find a woman. He could be a widower or a divorcee. He could be living comfortably 'in sin' with a woman. I think the possibilities are as numerous as there are people in that situation. Ask, if you're curious.

Some may feel its better to stay alone than getting married and being Tensed at everything. There are also some people with less confidence levels who might think they're not capable of getting married and thgey have no faith in themselves that they can be dependent and support for their Family.

maybe he is not meet the right person for him...he needs to move to another area with similar people to whom he would like to marry since the people in his area are not to his liking...

Some people are loners. Some just never found the right woman. Some just plain old do not like woman. Why dont you ask him why he never married? My husband would die without me. If I pass before he does , he will die of a broken heart.
