I was sitting at Cody's bar a few days ago and talking to the couple next to me. They had moved here about 6 months ago. The man loved every aspect and especially golf and is gone most of the day. His wife was miserable because she had to leave friends in Ohio. She does not go to clubs or activities here but just stays home and hates every minute. She said she just filed for divorce because her husband will not leave. I was very uncomfortable with all of that conversation and moved to another bar stool (far away).

You have to direct yourself to your best spot. It may be The Villages or it may be where you currently live.
I'd be pretty certain that their problems were leading toward divorce long before moving to TV.

Why file for divorce when one spouse could just go and spend a few weeks/months with relatives?? Maybe it was a more intimate "friend" that she left in Ohio.

I see lots of people from Ohio here whose relatives/friends LOVE to come here to see them because it's nice and sunny.
