Reply to comment by Wagamaga in Research found after six years spent tracking health outcomes among nearly 925,000 Danish seniors, investigators determined that when a man between the ages of 65 and 69 loses his wife he is 70% more likely to die in the year that follows, when compared with his non-widowed peers by Wagamaga
I think older women are better at maintaining social relationships. They have things like weekly coffee groups. If the husband dies they have a better social network to rely on.

The addiction system must have been an evolutionary Advantage for it to be so prevalent today. I suspect it has to do with something like thrill seeking and impulsiveness making for better warriors and increasing the chance of surviving deadly conflicts.
Those traits may not be as well suited for a more peaceful, agrarian society.
