Agreed!

As Robert Burns said, “the best laid plans of mice and men…”

Just do it! It can always be undone.

Can’t time life

yes, I did run into someone on our lifestyle visit where that scenario happened as well. .

You can’t time life, but you can be reasonable with decisions and expectations. We knew a couple who got married a week after knowing each other and they still seem to be doing great after almost 40 years. We also know a couple who dated 9 years and filed for divorce only a month after their wedding.

It’s cheaper right now to rent than buy, so why even buy? Either way you would be living in The Villages if you decided to rent.

What is a stanger?

Quote

Definition:
A stranger is someone with whom one has had no personal acquaintance or who is unfamiliar.
Context:
The term can also refer to someone who is new to a particular locality or who is not a member of a group.
Ambivalence:
Strangers are often perceived as outsiders and can be a source of ambivalence, as they could be a friend, an enemy, or both.
Origin:
The word "stranger" comes from the Middle French word "estrangier," meaning a foreigner or alien

Or someone not dependent on others? :D
