I can tell you this: My partner is fortunate to have me in her life because I, as an older man, have made the commitment to marry her. I gave her an engagement ring last year (October) and soon, she will be wearing her wedding band (time for this won’t be set until her ex signs the divorce papers.

OK, and why isn't the phrasing, "I'm so lucky to have met her" vs you imply she's lucky that you, as the senior, agreed to marry

Interesting, the way you phrase it

Perhaps what I should have said is that we’re both lucky to have met each other.

I proposed to her and she accepted without a moments hesitation.

For the record, we are both seniors. I turned 65 in late December/23 and her 65th will be in September of this year
