Reply to comment by Kurotan in Research finds people who are married have a lower risk of developing dementia after the age of 70 than those who are unmarried or divorced. Previous studies suggest that being married later in life protects against dementia, and that being single in old age increases the risk of dementia by Wagamaga

afaik there's also studies on how having pets prevents dementia, so maybe thats your way out ;)
