Statia Kealy of Ireland has never married, smoked, drank or even put on makeup. So maybe that's why she's finally ready to cut loose and hit the dating scene at the tender age of 106. Statia, who could easily pass for 88 or 89, says she's looking for love. If you know any lonely centenarians who live near Ireland, maybe you should pass along her number. She's got a sense of humor, telling one reporter, "Those that get married do well, but those that don't do better." Fiery!
If she can't find a man and is willing to learn Chinese, maybe she could be pen-pals with Wang Guiying, a 107-year old Chinese lady who finds herself in the same "predicament." Although 106 years of eating Poptarts alone in bed doesn't necessarily sound so bad.

If she hasn't found Mr. Right by now, I don't think she is going to find him in the near future.

It isn't that Mr. right isn't out there sometimes women have to accept a man
how he is and not out to make them into what we want them to be
to make any relationship work.
The reason why we don't find Mr. right is that we have ideals of what our
mate should be and we do often try to change a person into our ideal.
It is why marriage sometimes don't work or long term relationships.
A women can not change her man she can only accept him and his vice.
Every man has one that has to be tolerated or forgiven.

There is only one perfect man and that is God there is no other more perfect
than he, I surely hope that Statia finds some one that she can except even though he will not be perfect she must also except the fact that women are also not perfect but there is some one for every one if you just trust in your heart
a person does not have to be perfect to love and to be caring I hope she finds
some one very soon, Statis you go girl!! good luck....

Cute story, but it sounds like all these years no one was good enough for this woman. She probably set a standard so lofty and high that no human man was able to reach. So she sits still looking for a Mr. Right, a being that doesn't exist except for in her dreams. And anyway, is SHE as perfect as what she is looking for? They usually never are, dear.

THIS SENIOR LADY IS A HOOT. HERE'S A LITTLE SECRET FOR YOU MISSY; IF YOU HAVEN'T FOUND MR. RIGHT AFTER 106 YEARS, IT'S DOUBTFUL YOU EVER WILL. EITHER LOWER YOUR STANDARDS, OR ADMIT YOU WILL NEVER BE KISSED, ACCEPT IT, AND GET ON WITH YOUR BOWEL PREPS.
SORRY....DR. B.

I think you are confusing Mr. Right with Mr. Perfect. We all know there is no such thing as Mr. Perfect (only Miss Perfect !) No, honestly, there is nothing wrong with waiting for Mr. Right For Me. Not a perfect man, but your perfect mate. Someone you can respect and admire. Someone you want to spend a lifetime with. At 50 I'm still waiting - and trust me, I'm much happier waiting alone than having the marriages (or divorces) my friends that didn't wait have now! I do envy those that did wait and have already found their Mr/Ms Right For Them.

If you wait too long for Mr Right, you may end up old and no kids; that happened to my sister and I never met a more miserable person, regretting marrying the man she thought was perfect for her; another woman's man! Now she is bitter and he's gone, because he was 15 years older than her; a musician who was nothing, but a drunk! He never worked a real job, never saved any money for a rainy day; and left her anything but his loans! No house, no kids, nothing but his stupid name! Your idea of a perfect man can be a perfect mistake! Stop waiting for life to happen, take what you can while your still young and have a ltitle faith; and perhaps have a little fun in the exploring; but if you wait, your flower will fade and you will be sorry!

I CAN TELL YOU ONE THING:
SHE DID NOT GET TO BE 106 BY EATING POP TARTS.

I have been happily married for 37 years. My son (35) is of the same opinion as most of you. He says he will never get married because he feels all women are potential cheaters. He has had a few unsuccessful relationships.
It sounds like this lady has had the same experiences in life.....Too bad....you gotta keep trying....its no fun growing old alone. My Mom is 105.

ALL OF US HAVE A BOOK OF LIFE. SOMETIMES THE AUTHOR OF LIFE AND DEATH MIGHT NOT FIND ONE BOOK AS INTERESTING AS ANOTHER!
STATIA'S LIFE DOESN'T SEEM TO BE ON 'THE BEST SELLER' LIST EVEN IF SHE DATES AT THE REMARKABLE AGE OF 106. USUALLY, 'THE GOOD DIE YOUNG.'
STATIA, ARE YOU SURE YOU HAVEN'T DONE SOMETHING OFF COLOR IN YOUR YOUNGER DAYS? WELL, I GUESS THE HOTEL UPSTAIRS HAS NO VACANCY'S! 'THE OLDER YOU GET, THE HARDER IT IS TO GET IN!
STATIA, KEEP ON GETTING OLDER AND OLDER! IT IS AN HONOR TO KNOW SOMEONE WHO LIVED AT THE TURN OF THE CENTURY, AND WHO MADE IT TO COMPUTERS AND CELL PHONES! WHAT'S NEXT? XO XO XO.

To Mikes response.... (I dotn know you but you sound like a lazy bum! I will bet all you do is beat your wife! If your married, but I will bet your not at all. I have been married for a very long time, but when your man gets very sick and all you do is have to take care of him and do everything else (cut grass, take out garbage, fix anything that gets broken, your better off single! Especially when the man you married does not even know your name any more and thinks your just his nurse! I will never marry again! I did not bargain to being alone or a slave to someones else idiosyncracies! Or remarks! I no man slave! I only take care of my man out fo love to the memmory he was!
