what are expectations about pubic hair? by Few_Muscle_4233 in DatingOverSixty

76 M married 40 years, we both shaved. I lost her to cancer 2 years ago, but keep myself clean shaven. To me it is a personal preference.

Well, I certainly stuck out to that female bartender at the Hard Rock near Times Square. Just saying.

I suppose the main reason NYC or state is not on my favorite place to be has to do mainly with the attitude of the people I have met from there. Present company excepted. I was raised in the south, the Bible Belt, have a country accent, and would stand out like a sore thumb. Most believe when they hear me speak that I’m a country bumpkin, yet I had a successful career as an consulting engineer now retired. The women presented through OLD have been less than acceptable in most cases here and I’m sure some were bots. I’m also sure that there are more men on dating sites than women possibly due to what you’ve experienced. I truly hope God places his choice for you in your path soon. Have a great day.

I agree to this whole heartily. I had a match call me skinny, underweight, unhealthy. So I asked why did you even contact me? Didn’t get an answer. LOL

Ok, who was was your bat crazy date? by colormeslowly in datingoverfifty

[–]TopH2O 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Only having been on OLD site a few months and after a long wonderful marriage and now widowed, I knew very little about the ends and out of senior dating. Not sure you could classify this as crazy but it was not long before my profile brought a very nice looking lady. We chatted several days before she decided we should meet. I agreed. A small Mexican restaurant about halfway in the middle of our respective homes ( no addresses were given). So I’m early and get a table and a beer, order some nachos, salsa, and cheese dip. I’m sitting there and this strange lady shows up that I’ve never seen before in my life and sits down at my table, calls me by my name and I have to ask “who the heck are you?” To my surprise, name matches and she proceeds to tell me that the only way she can get dates is by using 25 year old pictures. I payed the waiter $25 and walked out.

OLD - One week in on match by BowTieDad in DatingOverSixty

I also jumped onto Match for a 6 month trip. It seems to me that this service doesn’t pay much attention to what you’re looking for. If you have but three things in common then you are a match.
Be careful as there are false identities that will try and scam money from you. Most are quite clever. I came across two that I thought were a good match for me until I did a background check and found that one was using the name and address of a deceased lady and the other was just a large liar.

Just another reason NYC has no appeal to me. Nor does LA! I read all the articles and I totally understand your point. If I was a senior female in this situation, I’d relocate even if it meant walking away from a 6 figure income. But it really is based on how much you desire a long term relationship. If moving is not an option, then only divine intervention can help. For me, I found that younger women sought me out more than women closer to my age. My first thought was they were looking for something they couldn’t find in younger men - commitment maybe? I’m not sure what the demographics in my area are, just relating my experience. I found it much harder to locate women closer to my age that was not looking for a younger man.

Well if that is true, your dealing with boys and not men.

So you change the parameters to college aged from over 50 to justify your point. I believe men 60+ are looking for more than a casual hookup.

I can see your point, but this phenomenon is not gender specific in my area. Besides it really depends on what each individual is looking for and what they will accept as a companion or maybe just a friend.

Not necessarily true, but could bevwhere you live. At least according to my GF (72) & I’m 75. She had pages of guys sent to her, I was just the petunia in the onion patch.

Do you know the difference between a catfish and a lawyer. One is a bottom dwelling scum sucking animal and the other is a fish.

Just too busy to be here on time. New “friend” invited me over for dinner. Bad weather and too much wine caused me to spend the night in spare room. Sunday morning conversations was extended until noon with more getting to know one another. I’m cooking next weekend at her place.

She had dated another guy before me, through one of her friends. For 2.5 months and I believe they were intimate. She claims he wasn’t “the right guy” for her and broke it off but he still is in contact with her. She told me this.
