Wonder if there are ladies out there, maybe also a divorcee or an older single who is willing to be a "life" partner with me? I can't promise marriage but I can supporting us (she and me) financially (normal mid class couple expenditure) till we grow old together. I know there is no black and white binding this relationship and any side of the party can easily end it. Do you think there are people out there who are ok with this? Am I being unrealistic? Any advice, personal experiences are greatly appreciated!

There are plenty of divorcee out there in pretty much the same situation as you and also looking for life partners. At this age, I do not think getting married is a must for them at all.
If you are going to put financial support on the plate, than this relationship will most likely be unbalanced and unhealthy.
If you are interested, there's a thread somewhere that a bro is pulling strings for woman in financial hardship. You can be their knights in shiny armour.
And I think they dun mind to have someone like you in their lives.
