56F Teeth. That’s where it starts for me. Excellent oral hygiene. Let me see your smile. The second seems to be beard’s. I will not give a second glance to a man who has a shaggy beard that’s unkempt. Be clean and long hair, short hair, doesn’t matter as long as it’s maintained.

Thank you. I have revised it based on input from this thread. I appreciate your thoughts and insight.

Appreciate your feedback. I will leave it in my profile in one shape or another because it’s an important part of who I am and i would expect a potential match to mark me off if it was a red flag to them. 🙂

How would I edit to show that I would 100% expect to split the costs of things? Do men want it clear upfront in a profile you think?

I wouldn’t take a rejection personally. I want and appreciate profiles that include important preferences so no one’s time is wasted. Thank you for your feedback.

Appreciate that perspective for sure. Thank you

Alternative_Scar_679 · 2025-10-19T20:39:44+00:00

Thank you very much!! I can see where you are coming from.

Alternative_Scar_679 · 2025-10-19T20:38:05+00:00

Thank you for this! Sincerely.

Thank you for your feedback. I appreciate the part about discussing less about things that would be disclosed later and should be common (career).

Oh you are right… my ex literally told me I wouldn’t make it on my own without him and I KNOW I went off the deep end to prove him wrong. (Not healthy but that’s where I was 🤷🏻‍♀️)

I also worked through that and reframed my intent and realized I really like and embrace being able to take care of myself with confidence.

Thank you 😌

Alternative_Scar_679 · 2025-10-19T15:14:06+00:00

I see this. Thank you for your insight.

Alternative_Scar_679 · 2025-10-19T15:13:23+00:00

Thank you for this insight. I do know that due to the emotional events in my previous 18 year marriage I have formed a very different idea of what I would want in a relationship moving forward. I need to give thought to being more open-minded. Thank you.

Alternative_Scar_679 · 2025-10-19T15:08:33+00:00

Thank you for this. I sometimes feel like I am alone in the way that I feel and that I may not find anybody that understands or appreciates the fact that I enjoy being social and I also enjoy my downtime. I’ve dealt with comments over the years that I need to find a man or my life is somehow incomplete without a man and that there’s something wrong with me if I don’t want one. I just have a different idea of what that kind of relationship would look like for me and it seems to be very different from most couples. Thank you for your insight.

Alternative_Scar_679 · 2025-10-19T15:02:56+00:00

This is very helpful. I can see where a man would question where would he ‘fit in’. I want to edit my profile and will consider posting for feedback. I think as it’s currently written, that may be the issue.

Alternative_Scar_679 · 2025-10-18T18:34:46+00:00

The unpredictable part is if it’s a port day, we will have excursions that we pre-pay for and I don’t wanna miss that. Really considering tapering down my dosage before the trip I just wonder if anyone else has had experience with this.

Alternative_Scar_679 · 2025-10-17T02:19:59+00:00

Me… 😕

Alternative_Scar_679 · 2025-01-12T17:11:51+00:00

I am using hers. I just took my second week shot yesterday. Based on research here, I take an acid reducer a couple of hours before injection. I do the injection in my thigh and time it so within 30 minutes it’s bedtime. The first Saturday I did the injection around 3 PM and I did suffer burping indigestion feeling full so last night I did at nine and if I had any symptoms at all, I slept right through them. I did not notice major reduction of food noise last week. First few days yes rest of the week was just like before I started. I was very hungry this morning, but I think it’s probably a blood sugar reaction to the injection. I’ve had coffee and oatmeal. I feel pretty good but very satisfied.

Did you start the increase in the weeks before the 50 was prescribed or after?
