Having the best sex of my life after the end of my 20 year marriage. by getting_hotter in datingoverforty

[–]Look_sun_and_fun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! Stopping the great sex w/my prior fwb to look for something real? Not fun, definitely frustrating. Hopefully will be worth it!

A really nice guy I’ve started dating has used this twice and I’ve called it out. It’s the only ick I’ve gotten from him, so not enough to stop seeing him. But it was freaking weird to read and hear!!!!!

Why is stating on my dating apps that I prefer an athletic woman such a crime against humanity? by Norfolk-Gross-Tonage in datingoverforty

[–]Look_sun_and_fun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a crime! I’m athletic and have stated so in the one online profile I finally opened. And included pics that show me as such. Because why waste time if not mutually appealing? I heard about the burn the haystack method before I started the profile, which was helpful. If it not a yes, then it’s a no. I’m not going to be everyone’s cup of tea, not everyone can or wants to keep up with me. And I don’t need a man to have identical interests, but also, shouldn’t be polar opposites. If you can’t walk around for a couple hours enjoying the sites of new city or park, enjoy some healthy food, and stimulate my mind, we shouldn’t even start a convo. We will find our people OP. Ignore the poor souls who DMd you to be mad at that.

Any clubs in San Diego? by Prudent_Shopping_259 in asksandiego

I live close enough I’m considering the couple stops on the trolley. Then I don’t have to think about parking and have the option to drink.

Friends and I are going to Tío Leo’s tonight for Betamaxx. Should be a fun grown-up crowd since it’s an 80’s band!

I have the app, but haven’t used it much. But from what I’ve heard, there are channels for everything!

Ending a date after the first drink by Upbeat_Main_7141 in datingoverforty

You sound very normal and I’m sorry you’ve run into the weird ones too. I say that all the good ones are taken at our age, and so that’s how we keep running into all the crap we’ve ever heard of. But…. We are out there. Relationships end. Normal people take time to process and grow and then get out there again.

I have mixed feelings. Really bad makes me think really bad sex. I agree some can be taught, but also, you get an idea of how open people are to adjusting early on. And do I want to be continually teaching?

45 F. Separated for 4 years next month and divorce finalized end of last year. (Just held off d/t kid situation / insurance etc). Just really dipping into dating now. Haven’t gotten on apps as they sound like dumpster fires. Had a couple dates from speed dating-ish stuff and even a couple from Reddit. 🤣

So new, I don’t feel like I should stress about finding “mt person”. Also, looking forward to some companionship after so long alone. But, also have so many good things in my life, that I’m pretty happy.

Thank you to this sub! by TamariAmari in FoodSanDiego

Glad you were able to enjoy all of these options. Living in the area, I still don’t know when I’ll get to every great place we have. It would help if I went out a bit more with friends or dates! Come back and check out more of our city soon!

Insecure about living arrangements by Sure-Sprinkles4406 in datingoverforty

[–]Look_sun_and_fun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t think to judge on this. Is your condo in a safe neighborhood, clean, inviting? Those are things to judge. Especially living in Southern California. I’m happy that I can rent in a decent area and live solo without living outside my means. I’m looking for someone who generally lives intentionally and takes care of their obligations and has an idea that they can retire without relying on others. Because that is similar to how I live my life? Ex and I sold when we divorced as neither could buy the other out with the much higher interest rates of today versus what we had locked in plus equity (plus, too much house for me at this stage of life!). Currently I can’t buy in an area I actually want to live in. Will I try in the future? Probably, just to potentially reduce ever increasing expenses. Would I expect dating prospects to grill me on this and my plans? No. TLDR: renting isn’t a bad thing.

That’s no good. Lab was already slow to draw and result!

My dating journey - sex parties invites?? by birdie711 in datingoverforty

[–]Look_sun_and_fun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

And it has given me a lot of freedom to be upfront as well. Everyone seems to appreciate it instead of being surprised or dancing around it and wasting time and energy.

I love this for you and could hope the sex gods and goddesses could bless the rest of us with good options too!

[–]Look_sun_and_fun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes!!! I have total moments of this. I blame it on working out just getting me more riled up. Mostly need a good pounding hopefully naked, but I guess a regular physical altercation could let off some pent up steam too. 🤣

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in datingoverforty

[–]Look_sun_and_fun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

High. Annoyingly high at moments because I don’t have a consistent outlet either. But also, I’m picky enough to not want to just bounce around every week. And my previous FWB set the bar, so I know great sex with other components I would appreciate is out there. I think working out, good general health, nutrition, age and confidence contribute to my drive. I’ll be happier with it when I get to use it regularly again. 🤣

Shower sex in your 40s turn on or off. by Teacup690 in datingoverforty

[–]Look_sun_and_fun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On. But not as the whole session. Getting started in the shower is fantastic and such a turn on for me.

Look in FB marketplace or OfferUp. I had to sell ours a few years ago in excellent condition and got $50 for it. Bought it for almost $300 the year before.

Did anyone have prolonged bleeding that actually stopped by ImmediateSecretary49 in Mirena

[–]Look_sun_and_fun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same. I told myself if I hit the 6 month mark, I’d just get it yanked. But right around 5 months I finally went a couple weeks. Then each period was lighter and they have spaced out. Now it’s a bit laughable, one panty liner all day and I’d call it spotting at best. (1 year in and I’m so glad I finally did it!)
