Is there such a thing as too honest?....or do I just have to come to grips the fact that at 62,in the middle of a plague-demic,I'm just too fugly for any of the women on here?
I've heard women complain that men only want one thing on these sites,or that men don't want long term,but then when you see these profiles (at least 1/3 of the ones I've read) where the woman says that she's only interested in men under 45 to 50 (even if she is well over that herself) how is a guy to meet anyone? Do I have to turn to the 20 something "Barbie doll porn bots" that keep popping up in my mail and likes or am I just too old and infirm to interest a REAL woman?.....asking for a friend...LMFAO

Patience is the name of the game.... and a long game once you reach a certain age , for sure..
Good luck and welcome to M2

No women *I* know want someone 10-20 years younger than themselves...I know *I* sure don't..

You asked: "how is a guy to meet anyone?"

I wish I knew.

People on here say the various dating sites aren't good for meeting people...
They also say "you can meet real people in the Forums here.."
Ok, well...that would presume there are guys of an appropriate age, within a reasonable distance of me who *also* have things in common with me..and so far I haven't seen any of those...
Many oldsters (I include myself in that group) are retired, so...meeting someone through work/ a work function is out..
In our age group we don't go "clubbing"..
Volunteer...people have said...did that, and the people were all older than me by some 15-20 years...or married..
Join a Meetup group, they say.....
Well, if you live in a rural area...there aren't really any close by...and the few within a reasonable drive for me are not things I am interested enough to shower, dress nice, and drive an hour+ one way to go to....

So for me....the various dating sites are what I do.....and I have no patience anymore for judgey people who offer unasked for "advice" about where to meet people...
To tell someone they are "doing it wrong" in your opinion is not honoring or respecting someone else's lived experiences or reality. happy
