I say enjoy his company and see what happens. But, of course, be safe and no reason to feel guilty about checking on him. Easy to run a search online, so why not?
Here's a true story: When my grandfather was 90, he started dating a woman in her 60s. He lied and told her he was 80. He was in great shape for his age and she didn't realize he was 10 yrs older. (We always kinda wondered why someone so young would marry a 90 yr old but didn't find this out until after Grandpa died.) Anyway, they married. When he got sick, she took care of him until he died 5 months short of his 100th B-day. He never went into a nursing home or even the hospital, dying at home which was his wish. I certainly don't agree with him lying to her. She was a nice lady.
My dad and his brother were in charge of Grandpa's financial stuff well before he passed. They made provisions for Grandpa's wife, thinking there would be a good chance she'd become a widow. So, when he died, she received a nice amount each month which allowed her to continue living as before. The money was deposited directly into her account every month which was what she wanted. She was happy with this situation and thanked my dad and uncle many times. BUT, she did tell them that if she'd known Grandpa was 90, not 80, she'd have thought twice about marrying him.

Oh how so nice to read this story. I'm so pleased that she found love again at her age. I only wish it would happen for me, too. Who knows? Never say never. Age should never matter.

Are you still a human being at age 71? Of course you are. You will always have human feelings.
