I think there is a language barrier!

quite possible

but I think I understand him fairly well - but guys his age I do not take what they say at face value unless I know them well personally (like friends of my sons or trusted co workers)

IME guys his age will tell women they want freindships as a bait n switch into the bedroom

and yanno experience is the best teacher - I actually had a man in this age range threated me and my family because I was not "interested"

fortunately those days and those people are long gone....

Yea, I think so too....

Age has nothing to do with it. (In his particular case) lol
