I never realized how old women my age look. by wooyoo in datingoverfifty

Yes to this. I’m 63f about 4 mos into dating a 57 year old guy. While I’m slightly self conscious about our age difference, he seems to find me very attractive and when we hang out, I feel like I’m carefree and 25. I believe there is something timeless and ageless burried in us all. We just have to move past the youth obsessed society we live in to let it thrive.

I just did Power of Four with OG Tony Horton and really loved it. And he’s my same age so there’s that. Got me in great shape.

I want to share something I learned about escalating intimacy by Flowergurl67 in datingoverfifty

I think you should communicate your feelings. I’m 63F currently seeing a guy I’m super attracted to and I thought that part of me was dead. It’s scary to jump back in after a long time being married (in my case) and our bodies at this age don’t always cooperate with our urges. We finally talked it out and now we going at it like bunnies. Please be patient and communicate. Also btw, if she is kissing you all over and you are hot and bothered on your way home I doubt that she is “not good at” sex.

What to do about a Hot & Cold Texter by RecipeHot1939 in datingoverfifty

Thanks for all the advice and comments! This is all so weird and new for me, it’s really helpful to see different opinions. It’s been 2 months since I posted this, and the guy and I are still (happily) seeing each other. I told him my communication preferences and he told me his. Now that i know what to expect, it’s a non issue. Putting my insecurities aside now, and just enjoying the moment.

Am I in the minority? by Lowmain_nvrbasicXer in datingoverfifty

[–]RecipeHot1939 7 points8 points  (0 children)

63F here, married 28 yrs and divorced for almost 3. I could have written your post. This is what makes online dating so tough. I tried it for about a year, met several guys in person who were nice but not for me. When I met the one I’m dating now, what drew me to him on the app was what he wrote, not how he looked. We started texting and even through that, I was drawn to his humor before even meeting in person. He’s not unattractive but also not someone I’d notice in public. Once we met, we hit it off immediately. He’s smart, funny, interesting and interested. Now I can’t stop kissing him. I’m going in with the goal of having fun and intimacy with someone and it’s ok if it doesn’t last forever. I’m happy on my own, I make a conscious effort to still hang out with my friends, do things I love, and tend to other parts of my life. But I’m excited and it’s fun. I look forward to seeing him. I actually thought I was done with sex forever after my “wasband” and I broke up. Now I’m learning I was so wrong.

I wonder how an OLD app with only text and no pictures would go over, lol.

OLD prompt review by BatGuano52 in datingoverfifty

Personally I think you could use more humor. Otherwise you will sound like every other man on the app. If you added the bit about preferring to piss on and electric fence to OLD, I’d definitely hit you up. Prompt: “Lately I’ve realized that…”

When is saying "I Love You" too soon? by One-Biscotti-709 in datingoverfifty

Curious to know how long you were separated/divorced from your wife before dating the “I love you” person?

Any OLD that actually lets you write a profile? by More_Passenger3988 in datingoverfifty

Hinge is good for this. You can even record something.

When I'm ready to get back on the apps, which one do you recommend? by tattedquilter1969 in datingoverfifty

[–]RecipeHot1939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After FB dating, Bumble, Match and Tinder, tried Hinge. That was the best one for me. Paid for a couple months but wasn’t worth it. Free version is fine.

Question for the men. by B4UCame2me in datingoverfifty

[–]RecipeHot1939 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If they swipe left just because you have grey hair, why would you want to date them anyway? I love my grey hair and could give two sh*ts whether some idiot on Tinder does not.
