I know, you are probably right, but there have been some pretty wonderful couples "happen" among our more senior residents.
The reason I said what I said is because I can't forget what a pharmacist once told me. When I was a young man I worked for a pharmacist. He owned his own pharmacy and it was just the two of us running things. Every day I would go out and get his lunch which was the same thing every day - an egg salad sandwich. One day on the way back to the pharmacy I saw an elderly couple acting like teenagers. They were holding hands and seemed quite inspired by each other.

When I got back to the store, I told the pharmacist what I had observed and he only said two words: "Senile love."
