Why would a religious virgin in her late 50s still think about having kids and getting married?

There is this woman of 58 years old on another website I frequent and she lives in the deep South of the States.
She is very religious and she has remained a virgin her entire life. She has recently gotten into a relationship with a mechanic who never has time for her so she never sees him.
The other day she started talking about her getting married and having kids. She was serious and not joking.

I wonder if this person is so naive that she doesn’t realise that she’s way too old to fulfill her dreams or if she thinks religion will miraculously help her get pregnant at her age, or yet another possibility: that she has not gone through menopause yet and is still fertile?

Just let the lady dream, she's not hurting anybody.

I just feel sorry for her. Why couldn’t she live her life when she was young? Why does she have to chase her dreams now that she’s at the end of her life and old? @SW-User

@MarieJaneWatson She may not be near the end of her life (she’s several years younger than I am). I’ve known people who have lived as long as 104 years.....she could live another 40 years.

@DragonFruit Yeah but you have had a life I assume? Married , dated , ... like normal people do. But how creepy when someone is still a virgin at 58 and never has had a serious relationship?
