My quiet neighbor

I'm now retired and a widower of 5 years, all my children are making their own lives now. I retired early (60 in 2024) because I had nothing more to achieve career wise. Then moved into a retirement village, sold my home gave the money to my children. At first, I kept to myself mostly. Finding my way, you could say. In the new year I started to mingle more and started to explore possible relationships. Most women were either married, too old or already in a relationship. Except for Ruth 59, she was very quiet hardly talked and never joined in anything. I discovered by chance she collected stamps; I'd collected them in my younger days and still hard them. Ruth was very knowledgeable about stamps, so I asked her to look at my collection to see if there were any special ones in it. She agreed, I wasn't expecting her to find any really valuable ones. Which she didn't, but some were scarce especially in good condition and were worth around a hundred dollars at most. But I wasn't interested in selling, but it broke the ice with Ruth we had a similar interest. Over the following weeks we would hang out together. Finally, I was invited to dinner with her and things progressed passed stamps. Because she had a sore shoulder from overstretching, I offered to massage it. The massage eased her shoulder and led onto sex. Ruth liked the sex, and sex became a regular part of our relationship. You could say we're in a relationship. Ruth doesn't want to marry and prefers living alone, but we see each other every day and have most weeks. Perfect arrangement.
