That is interesting.
I wonder if I will receive a "Valentines Card" from a woman this year.

Love at First Chat

I think you need to chat online just long enough to decide they are real and you want to meet in real life, then the sooner the better in my opinion. I once met someone online who said they would be happy to go on a date with me, but it would never be any more than dating. They were at least honest. I declined, because I would like to think when dating that it could become something more serious, that is why I wanted to date her. I am still not sure whether I did the right thing, maybe I should have just enjoyed the date, it just seemed over for me before it even started. My profile photos on here are age progressive, I have been on here that long.
I love the forums.

So many other social platforms to choose from, maybe they have taken people away from the dedicated dating and social sites like Mingle2. The forums here are all great, not many similar sites have them, and they do provide a good place to meet people in my opinion, long may it continue. |

You have to keep up with the 'Honey Do' list in my opinion or it's the cold shoulder.

I recently responded with a question about whether they had visited a place close to where they lived, easy question I thought, still waiting for a reply. I half suspected they were not real, doubt they even live here in the UK.

A few women have said hi to me ... but fail to say much more ... I used to write my heart out now I am saying much less... Is more better or just an aloof comment what do women like? I guess it depends, if not interested then don't reply seems the normal response online, if interested then a one liner is good as a starting point in my opinion. Good luck in your search. |

Desperate much?

Okay, I'm at the point that I'll take any offer from any woman (or girl) with daddy issues who can get over the fact that I'm 72 and still not using a walker to get to the car. Nope, I am not into "exercise", nope, I am not rich, nope, I'm not drop-dead handsome (any more-there was a time). BUT, I have a nice car, a nice boat & a truck to pull it with, own my own home in a really nice and safe neighborhood with an extra bedroom if she doesn't want to sleep in my king bed with me, and I can actually cook, wash dishes, vacuum, & take out the garbage and recycling all by myself. (I cheat and use the moto-cart at the grocery store because concrete floors give me a backache after an hour wandering around.) I smoke, but I'm not a drinker, I am fairly intelligent and well-read on almost any subject but I'm not so full of hubris to think I know-it-all (aside from decades of being right almost every time - which is likely a result of what I was born with, not something I learned how to do.) I will accept the dumbest "Box-O'-Rox" going as long as she is pleasing to the eye and doesn't mind if I just like to sit - or go places with her - and look at her while she does whatever she wants to do. (Hell, I don't even care if she is involved the sex industry for a living - I used to know a lot of them when I was much younger and they were all really nice women.) To me that's a fair trade - she gets material support & freedom to do as she pleases and I get to admire the artistry that is the human female form in motion. So, how 'bout it ladies - any takers? Honestly, I don't for a minute believe there are any attractive 50+ women on this site actually looking to make a connection, which is why I feel perfectly confident in making such a lopsided offer. (PS: If it turns out she was to develop real feelings for me, so much the better, I'm ready now to give love another shot and be that mythical unicorn they all say they are looking for - honest to a fault, loyal, devoted, charitable, kind, - and a good time in public or private....that's not my opinion, it's the women I've hung out with that have said so.) Please mention my name if you are oversubscribed.

There are those people, men and women, that have their own hidden agenda. Take your time in getting to know your date, don't rush in to a more serious relationship until you know each other very well. People with those ideas soon reveal themselves, it is far better to find out before you become serious or to marry or live together. Good luck in your search.

Would you be very happy if your partner was thinking of a holiday without you. It could be her going with the girls, or him going with the boys, for a week away somewhere or maybe cruise. I am not sure I would be happy with that, yet many people do, maybe I have trust issues or it's just I want to go as well.

Why not add a security camera near the light, pointed down your drive, they are inexpensive these days. Connected to the electricity supply and linked to your phone so you receive warnings when motion is detected and it is recorded to a sim card, the film of the intruder.(Most have infrared as well and pick up intruders in complete darkness). Easy to install and set up on your mobile phone. They are a very good security measure, there very presence is the best detterent you can have, and it gives peace of mind. I have them and security lighting around outside, and would certainly recommend, especially to anyone living alone like me, or in more rural areas where a camera door bell is also a good idea. My outside lighting is on dusk until dawn, and at 5 watts per led give good lighting and are very cheap to run, they do keep intruders out. Some home insurance companies give discounts to occupiers with these security features. Stay safe.

Given that we are to some extent moulded by our parents, there life experiences, I think each generation is a little different to the next. However, I believe it is our own personal experiences that mould us the most, and I don't consider age or generation gap that important, if you are both on the same page with similar goals in life that matters more in my opinion.
