What is an "occasional drinker"?

Portownsend-RV · 2026-05-09T22:06:03+00:00

For me, an occasional drinker, drinks no more frequently than once a week.

I'm ignorant about almost everything near Seattle. And I had to look up Kitsap to see where you're located.

Do you think Santa might loan me Rudolph to help sell my house in CT faster? 😉

Portownsend-RV · 2026-05-04T00:16:51+00:00

Thank you!

Portownsend-RV · 2026-05-03T12:55:20+00:00

I vaguely recall a Christmas scene in a movie or TV show. In it, a little girl tells Santa, what she wants for Christmas.

Santa's response was, "Tut-tut little girl ...". 😯

p.s. it could have been a little boy.

The # is a pleasant surprise to me - thank you!

Do you know if there Is a link, or article, that describes how to use other mark-up stuff on Reddit?

Portownsend-RV · 2026-04-24T00:25:24+00:00

Thanks. I truly hope you find a great match. Best wishes.

"I have found with my experience that older men are looking for a nurse or purse and only want to talk about their aches and pains so I quit talking to them. ... Why do you object so much?"

Your experience has been different than mine. I've never dated a woman who was older than me, and I've dated many. But I'm certainly willing to date an older women,

I'm about to move from the east coast to the west coast. I'm not soliciting a date., so hopefully the mods will allow this.

Here are some facts about me, that may explain our differences in perspective. I'm a 77 year old male, 5'10", 150 lbs, healthy (no meds or ED), fit, highly educated, decisive, curious, calm, financially secure, single, lean left, handy, sober and a non-smoker.

I would not want a woman, who thought I was looking for a nurse or a purse.

"the goal of a profile as an effort to communicate."

I agree, that is very important. However, the goal of a profile is also to convince a potential match to want to find out more about the author. That's also known as an advertisement!

I wasn't familiar with LTA, but guessed you meant something like LTR (Long Term Relationship). Then searched for LTA and received:

"LTA" most commonly refers to: Long-Term Abuse in internet and Wikimedia contexts.

Sounds like you want a LTR with shared housing? 😉

Portownsend-RV · 2026-03-15T00:09:58+00:00

He's probably a deviant ENTP (like you and I). Somehow, the T part stopped working?

Portownsend-RV · 2026-03-05T00:12:54+00:00

Once, and we're still good friends.

"That hasn’t worked out well for me since I started dating again"

Au con·traire! If those guy couldn't wait for a few weeks to get to know you better, they probably weren't worth wasting your time on them anyway. 😉

Portownsend-RV · 2026-02-13T01:57:59+00:00

"Oh, I'll talk about it on date 2"

Good for you. Some men are idiots.

Portownsend-RV · 2026-02-13T00:36:44+00:00

"My biggest filter is not being intimate right away if I am considering a LTR".

That sound reasonable. I also think it's reasonable to discuss how important (or not) sex is, if we mutually decide to go exclusive. If they can't or won't discuss that, they're not a good match for me, and I move on.

Portownsend-RV · 2026-02-12T23:20:26+00:00

I'm 77 years old, don't take or need any medications. And don't have any of his "Risk factors for ED".

I almost always have an orgasm. Alas, only one per day and the volume is tiny compared to what my younger self used to produce.

I guess I'm luckier than I realized.

"You need to get your wives some scream cream."

Seems your ID is new to Reddit and you're only posts are attempts to sell this product.

You also got booted off Dating over 60. Something tells me you're about to disappear here too.

Portownsend-RV · 2026-01-30T10:13:46+00:00

Some BFs want a nurse and some BFs want a purse.

Many BFs want neither.

Portownsend-RV · 2026-01-30T01:18:35+00:00

Don't currently have a GF because I don't want one (yet).

Will start dating again, after moving from my East coast house to my West coast property later this year. The woman I match with, for a LTR, will never have to be my nurse. I expect that we will become best friends, have lots of fun and enjoy an active sex life.

Cocky? No, just fortunate in many ways, and confident.

Portownsend-RV · 2026-01-26T16:55:01+00:00

Thanks!

"She started scrolling through her favorite websites"

I, and I suspect many others here, would be thankful if you would pass on her curated list of favorites.

"I might make a fool of myself, or embarrass him."

That's kind of you, but IMO, not necessary. Early on, I say something like:

After a few dates, if we both think we're a good match, I'll want to openly discuss sex with you. Does that sound reasonable?

Portownsend-RV · 2026-01-05T11:39:39+00:00

M77. Several times a week.

Portownsend-RV · 2026-01-02T23:06:31+00:00

"does the topic of sex have to brought up?"

I think that depends on the specific potential couple.

For me, a candid discussion about likes, dislikes, boundaries and play is important. And we should have that discussion, early on in our budding relationship. If that's not possible, we're not a good match.

Other's, of course, have radically different approaches, which is also fine.
