For young people the chemistry might be an animal attraction with the goal of raising a family. Whereas with the elderly, who are very advanced in age, it may sometimes be known as "senile love".


You were doin' great there kid, until the last two words.


I know, you are probably right, but there have been some pretty wonderful couples "happen" among our more senior residents.
