He is a wonderful and easygoing man whom I deeply love, and I know he loves me too. However, there is a complication: We both have grandchildren from previous marriages, and I believe my grandkids are the most important people in my life. He feels the same way about his grandchildren.
When it comes to taking care of the little ones, he goes above and beyond. He babysits several days a week and even stays overnight when his kids go on trips. As a result, I find myself spending more and more time alone.
We used to do activities together during the day like going on drives, visiting museums, biking, and golfing. However, those days have become rare. I never bring up my feelings because I understand his love for his grandchildren, and I don’t want to cause any conflict or animosity.
Lately, I have noticed myself becoming interested in other men for companionship. I have even gone on dates and been intimate with a couple of men. I feel some guilt, but not enough to stop seeking companionship.
— Lonely in the Sunshine State
Lonely: Your friend has found a new focus in his life with his grandchildren. His interests and priorities have shifted. You can either join him in this new pursuit or find other activities and companionship elsewhere.
Some grandparents prioritize their role as a grandparent above everything else, which can be fulfilling for them and their families. However, it can also strain other relationships. He has made his choices based on his interests and passions, and you have the right to do the same for yourself.
