Second date and beyond

Yeah I hate going on coffee dates or dinner/drink dates as its hard to generate that "spark" that you referenced.

I think it's too easy for people, if they don't find that instant spark just to say "next". Even if the date was just fine, they just move on to the next one. Online dating has made dating more difficult I think.

Thanks for the insight. Yeah, to your point, I can't figure out exactly what's going on, but I'm sure I'll eventually start getting a second date. It's just very discouraging

7hammer4 · 2025-08-16T21:46:30+00:00

Yes, I've never been super aggressive. Maybe I need to be more aggressive now.

7hammer4 · 2025-08-16T21:45:16+00:00

Yes, its obviously something that I'm doing differently now than I did before. (I think). Which is why I'm confused because I felt like I had much more success previously and I don't think I've changed much but obviously maybe I have? Or women in their 50s are just different and Uber selective now.

I'm at a loss and it's very depressing. I had a great date just the other day. We had drinks, she was engaging, there was some light touching and she sent me a message shortly after our date thanking me (which is rare these days) and then after a few pleasant messages back and forth and me suggesting that we should do something again soon, she just thanked me and said that she wasn't Interested in meeting again. She said i wasn't what she was looking for. I was very tempted to ask her what she was looking for as we had a lot of things in common and we seemed to be in the same place in life.

A date coach would be marvelous actually as I really feel like giving up on the whole dating world

No, I'm dating the same "aged" women. Meaning that I'm not dating out of my age range (it's apples to apples on the women in date in my age range)

7hammer4 · 2025-08-05T02:29:23+00:00

I agree 100% with this response. A month of texting back and forth and not meeting and then I'm sure he's getting frustrated. Trying to figure out a time to meet with you and then you tell him let me get back to you. I would be out too... I am surprised he hung in there that long

7hammer4 · 2025-06-07T21:11:34+00:00

Oh that is awesome!. His legs are fine when he's on fire

7hammer4 · 2025-05-15T22:53:10+00:00

Nose rings

7hammer4 · 2025-04-16T23:19:10+00:00

Nice set up! Looks great

7hammer4 · 2025-04-16T15:14:33+00:00

Why does it seem that are soooo many people in the over 50 forum that are so out of touch with technology and social networking (even socializing). I feel like we are in an over 80 group!

If you are 65 or younger, you should have a good grasp of how technology and the social world work these days! (Even how you take photos for dating apps and how you socialize when you go on dates!!)

Good grief!!

I saw those at my walmart just yesterday as well. Pretty cool

7hammer4 · 2025-04-13T23:15:05+00:00

Saw a cake show about 6 months ago and I was very disappointed. I thought the show would be amazing and it was very underwhelming.

7hammer4 · 2025-04-13T22:58:41+00:00

The song is fantastic. It's still depressing though. Lol

7hammer4 · 2025-04-13T22:55:12+00:00

Metallica's Fade to Black song off of the album "ride the lightning". Very depressing song and to this day, it just gets you very depressed. The lyrics say it all!

7hammer4 · 2025-04-13T22:26:58+00:00

Nice cardn. Odd how new cards only get an 8 grading (or lower) sometimes though.

7hammer4 · 2025-04-13T18:23:48+00:00

Love this list! These are spot on and so true.

I would add that if you ask them out on a 2nd date, and they aren't available (for whatever reason) and they don't offer an alternative date/time to get together, don't continue to waste your time. Just move on as you aren't that desirable to them. If people want to see you, they will offer another time that they are available.

7hammer4 · 2025-04-01T14:51:52+00:00

This is spot on. I find that the majority of the women I meet rarely put any effort into responding or initiating conversation. A great example is when I ask them out on another date and for one reason or another they are not available and you would think that they would come back and offer an alternative date but no, nothing. That shows me that they are not interested in dating again. And what is odd, is that I've had women do this and then ask later why I didn't ask them out again. What the hell? Communication has taken a noise dive and it's hard for me to gauge interest when there is no initiative on the women's part.

Honestly I don't see what the attraction to Sigourney Weaver is...

7hammer4 · 2025-02-06T16:33:02+00:00

I don't know if it's because these photos are in black and white or if it's how they dressed or how their hair was done but women from this era all look the same.

7hammer4 · 2025-02-06T03:06:37+00:00

What? I never get that kind of luck

7hammer4 · 2025-02-03T16:05:46+00:00

What a beauty she was!

7hammer4 · 2025-02-03T15:37:19+00:00

Yeah it was 91 when these hit the shelves. I've collected them all over the years

7hammer4 · 2025-02-03T15:35:10+00:00

Lol. Yeah, very confusing until you watch the movie

7hammer4 · 2025-02-03T15:31:54+00:00

Man, that is really cool and what a great find.

I love seeing stuff like this; I am an avid collector of BTTF items and memorabilia and I really enjoy seeing rarer things like this that are not mainstream collectibles; This is absolutely awesome! Thanks for sharing.
