This is the story of a remarried woman in her mid-50s who found love through willpower and passion.

Ms. A had worked for a foreign company in Korea before marrying her American supervisor and moving to the United States. Her husband, an executive at a global company, passed away in an unexpected accident a little over ten years after their marriage.

With exceptional sense and ability, Ms. A settled her husband’s estate and started her own business, which became a great success. She had good ideas, strong business instincts, and remarkable passion.

After living diligently for 20 years, Ms. A decided to remarry after her two children became independent.

Her appearance was rather ordinary, and she was on the shorter side. In other words, she did not have many physical qualities that would strongly appeal to men.

The kind of man Ms. A wanted was gentle, intellectual, handsome, and either a professional or a socially successful man. The problem was that such men were unlikely to meet a woman like Ms. A, whose appearance was ordinary and who was already in her 50s. At first glance, it seemed like a difficult match to make.

Fortunately, a meeting did take place. But Ms. A’s patience and waiting continued for more than a year. What changed the mind of the man, who had been uncertain and hesitant, was Ms. A’s effort and sincerity.

I have summarized a few reasons why Ms. A was able to meet a good spouse.

1. She was financially prepared

Most single women in their 50s tend to enjoy single life if they have financial strength, and look for a spouse when life becomes financially difficult. But Ms. A had achieved financial success, and she had the confidence that she could make any man happy.

2. She maintained the relationship consistently

Ms. A continued the relationship for more than a year with patience and effort. Even for a woman who had achieved social success, there must have been moments when her pride was hurt because the man hesitated or held back.

But Ms. A did not ask to be introduced to someone else. With the determination to do her best with this man, she did not give up on the relationship.

3. She was proactive

Singles in their 50s and older often consider many things because of social expectations, and sometimes play push and pull. But Ms. A actively approached the man. Even though they lived more than two hours apart by plane, when he said he was busy, she would go to see him herself.

Watching her, I thought this:

There is no age limit to love, and somewhere, there is certainly someone meant for me.

If your will is firm and you work in rhythm with your manager, anyone can meet the spouse they want.
