What would you do if you couldn't find the object you wanted in this lifetime? Is it to find someone who will take a moment and marry yourself casually?
This may be the final destination for some girls, because the pressure brought by older unmarried women is unimaginable, and not all of them can withstand the urge to marry from all directions.
In addition, psychologically, many women are always accustomed to looking for dependence, and the loneliness and helplessness brought about by a lifetime of unmarried are also unbearable.
But an exception is a female dancer in Australia, her name is Irene. Eileen Kramer was born on November 8, 1914, two months before turning 107. Chinese used to talk about imaginary age, so in our context, Kramer is already a 107-year-old man.
In Kramer's long life of more than a hundred years, marriage has never been present, and she has certainly not had children without marriage, but her life obviously cannot be described as lonely and helpless, but it is full of excitement and excitement.
To this day, at the age of 107, she still maintains considerable vitality, and has even been described by the media as "entering the peak of creation".
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="5" > the misfortune of the original family, and met his first love at the age of 22</h1>
Born in Sydney, Australia's largest city, Kramer lived with her parents and a family of four in Sydney's Mossman Bay until she was 10 years old.
Kramer's father was a car salesman and his mother was a full-time housewife, and the family lived on his father's meager income, living in relative poverty, but in Kramer's memories, the childhood before the age of 10 was happy.
Because when she was 10 years old, her father suddenly became addicted to alcohol, and as long as he was drunk, he would punch and kick his wife and a pair of children.
In order to avoid her husband's domestic violence and protect her two children, three years later, her mother moved to Sydney's Coogee Beach with her 13-year-old Kramer and her younger brother, who was less than 10 years old.
The move did not tell Kramer's father, but secretly, even after moving to Coogee Beach, the family of 3 has been living in hiding, afraid of being met by Kramer's alcoholic father.
Although the father who left the domestic violence gave them temporary safety, he was financially in trouble. In order to support a pair of children, the mother had to go out to work.
Luckily, she found a relatively idle job at a nearby farm, professionally called "store detective", which is actually stalking on the farm to prevent anyone from stealing.
In 1936, at the age of 22, Kramer's mother, who had been separated from her husband for nine years, finally made up her mind to divorce and soon entered another marriage.
After her mother remarried, Kramer moved out of the house, but she could not afford too much rent, so she had to share with a few roommates, a state that lasted until 1940.
During the shared period, Kramer met his first love. It's rare for a Westerner known for being open to 22 years old to have their first relationship, but given Kramer's unfortunate family of origin, everything seems understandable. In fact, the reason why she did not marry for the rest of her life was largely related to the bad birth family.
Kramer's first love was her psychiatrist Richard, but the relationship didn't last long. Given Richard's special status, we should be able to imagine how he captured Kramer's heart, and the relationship may well have traumatized Kramer.
Of course, even if there is a big trauma, it must have been smoothed out by time long ago, after all, Kramer is already a 107-year-old old man, what else in the world can make her think of it?

In 1940, at the age of 26, Kramer ended her shared status because she was going to pursue her own life. Before the 6 years of shared living, she has been living as a "usher", although this job is simple, but it can not give her a happy life, let alone any future for development.
Kramer has loved singing since she was a child, and when she decided to pursue her life's dreams, she naturally chose singing as her main option, so she enrolled at the Sydney Conservatory of Music. Kramer was 26 that year, and most of her peers were married or on the road to marriage.
After being admitted to the Sydney Conservatory of Music, Kramer became a full-time student, of course, she could not continue to work in her original job, but her daily expenses did not decrease but increased. In order to make ends meet, as well as to support her studies, Kramer worked part-time, and for a time she also worked for the well-known Australian painter Norman. Lindsay worked as a nude model.
I thought that singing would become my life's work, but in fact, after only half a year, Kramer chose another path in life.
That fall, her remarried mother took Kramer to a charity concert, and she was captivated by the live dance play "Blue Danube.". At that moment, Kramer suddenly realized that there was a seed of dance buried in her heart, and she preferred to dance than singing.
The day after the idea came out, Kramer decided to change careers, and she found the dance troupe performing "Blue Danube" and spoke her mind. The dance teacher in the troupe was impressed by Kramer's sincerity and promised to give her an interview, which Kramer luckily seized and successfully passed the audition of the dance troupe.
In the following 3 years, she worked hard to learn to dance in the dance troupe, and 3 years later, Kramer performed on stage for the first time, and the first performance received a good response. The recognition of the audience brought Great encouragement to Kramer, in order to give back to the audience, but also in order to realize her dreams as soon as possible, she continued to refine her dance skills, and finally made a name for herself in the Australian dance circle.
Kramer, who became a professional dancer, has many opportunities to perform abroad every year. Once, she came to India with the dance troupe, where she met a French diplomat, and the two began a romantic relationship.
But like the first love, the relationship did not last long, because the two met purely by chance, they were not ready to talk about a long-term relationship, french diplomats could not sacrifice their future careers for her, and Kramer was not willing to give up his dance career for each other.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="9" > France meets a 6-year-old boyfriend, and at the age of 79, talk about a twilight love</h1>
The French are known for their romance, and the French diplomat Kramer met in India, though only a brief memory, is enough to describe it as profound.
I don't know if this is the reason, but a few years later, Kramer fell in love with a Frenchman, born in 1920, 6 years younger than Kramer, and a director named Baruch. Baruch Shadmi.
When the two met and fell in love, Kramer was over 40 o'clock. Shadmi brings Kramer a different feeling than her previous two boyfriends, and she feels that this man is very reliable, so she is moved by the truth.
The relationship lasted until 1987, and for more than three decades before that, Kramer lived with Shadmi, and although they were not licensed to marry, they were no different from real couples.
In order to support Shadmi's work, Kramer voluntarily stepped back into the background and gave up part of his career. Unfortunately, boyfriend Shadmi suffered a sudden stroke on the way home from a movie and has been paralyzed ever since.
After the boyfriend who had been together for more than ten years fell, Kramer did not choose to escape, but resolutely took on the heavy responsibility of taking care of her boyfriend, which was 18 years, until the death of her boyfriend in 1987.
Shadmi was undoubtedly the one Kramer really loved, and he died at the age of 73. In exchange for an ordinary woman, widows at this age are likely to lie flat, but Kramer is different, just one year later, she crossed the ocean to the United States and resumed her dance career that had been abandoned for decades.
Going to the United States was the suggestion of a good friend of Kramer's, and the two met because of dance, and both were widowed in their later years, so it was natural to have the idea of hugging the old age.
After coming to the United States, Kramer, who is more than 70 years old, often performs with old friends, although they are very old, they still receive praise from the audience, and what is even more unexpected is that Kramer has also gained another precious love.
The other party was a businessman named "Bill", a few years younger than Kramer. He admired Kramer's dancing style, and whenever Kramer performed, Bill would inevitably appear in the audience, and gradually Kramer also developed a fondness for him.
At the age of 79, Kramer and Bill formally established a relationship and talked about a vigorous "twilight love". This was Kramer's last love affair, and it was also the second long-term relationship.
In 2013, boyfriend Bill died, and 99-year-old Kramer was single again. At this time, she has no worries in the United States, her boyfriend is gone, and her old friend who was with her for the elderly has long passed away, and she can't stand being lonely, so she chose to return to Australia.
For decades, Kramer made a living as a dancer and had two long-term relationships, but had never had children or even bought a house. After returning to Australia, she lived in a nursing home in Sydney, and she was nearly 100 years old, so she should always lie flat this time.
As it turns out, there is no word for "lying flat" in Kramer's dictionary. After his centenarian birthday, Kramer suddenly became like a new life, and he developed a great passion for dance.
Although her body could no longer support her to complete the complex movements, Kramer still tried to interpret with her flexible waist and slender hands, and the old dragon clock's body and light and agile dance formed a strong contrast, bringing an extraordinary experience to the audience.
In his 100s, Kramer not only regained his dance career, but also started a new one. In just a few years, she wrote 3 best-selling books based on her life experience, studied painting in addition to dance and writing, and won a heavyweight painting award in Australia at the age of 104.
Dancing again, writing again, painting again, Kramer, who has passed his hundredth birthday, seems to be busier than before, and his life is more fulfilling. This may also be the benefit of being single, after all, she has not been in love since she was widowed at the age of 99.
Kramer, who is two months away from turning 107, is now a big celebrity in Australia. Countless young women were attracted to her legendary life, and from her, people saw how happy and fulfilling a woman who was not married and had no children for life could be, and how enviable it was.
