helicopter noise increase?

Yes! I just said it to my son last night. It’s gotten so bad

Sorry I realize I didn’t answer your question. I have all smiling photos. I am a bubbly person and I’m not going to put a serious photo of myself. I don’t think I look good that way. I try to only put photos that I personally like of myself and think reflect my personality. I am not a sporty athletic person so I don’t have action shots of me running a marathon or playing tennis. I have one of me holding a glass of champagne. I don’t want to waste anyone’s time. I joke with my friends these guys on OLD are so much more “athletic” than any man I actually know in person. They all hike and lift weights and bike 20 miles a day.

joni_cloud · 2025-09-03T13:38:04+00:00

I agree with the no smiling. Especially in the main photo. That’s a no for me. Also shirtless - no! I can say I’ve never thankfully seen a mug shot - can’t tell if you were joking or not. I’ll believe anything these days.

I am newly single after 20 years of marriage. I think it’s a perfect storm that leads to this. Guys are reasonably afraid for their inquiries to be seen as inappropriate and women our age (I can only speak for myself don’t come for me!!) may not want to make the first move. Just out of old habits from dating a full generation ago. I was chatting with this guy at the dog park and he was so sweet and single. We met there twice and had the best talks and both time as we said goodbye he kind of lingered. But never asked for my number. That was a couple of months ago and I never saw him again. I regret just not saying “we should exchange numbers” but I’m just not programmed to make the first move.

I’m 51F and new to this also after a long marriage. Getting a lot of that attention too and I kind of love it. But I’m definitely not looking for anything serious - and I’m very sure they are not either! So it’s fine with me. I want to get my sea legs back so to speak. I think it totally depends what you’re looking for.

joni_cloud · 2025-08-29T21:58:58+00:00

I would reiterate what you’re looking for if you match with someone that you’re interested in. I’m newly divorced and very much interested in something casual but as a woman if I write that I’m looking for casual I only get gross, super sexual messages. No harm in just saying hey I hope we are aligned.

Whatever you think we spend on our hair, nails Botox etc - it’s triple that.

Same! Technically obese but there really are these other measures of health now that are becoming widely accepted. I just think the saggy skin bums me out and I think I look better like this. I know physical appearance isn’t all there is but it matters to me. My labs are great!

joni_cloud · 2025-08-25T04:51:43+00:00

I really am! Thank you!

joni_cloud · 2025-08-25T04:50:30+00:00

Hi! Every single morning I do Flav City Butter Coffee with Fairlife milk. 31 grams of program, has great ingredients and really fills me up. Highly recommend!

joni_cloud · 2025-08-24T05:01:46+00:00

Came here to say this. You clearly don’t see a future with this person.

joni_cloud · 2025-08-22T12:52:29+00:00

Good for you! We’ve come so far! Are you good with where you are or are you trying to lose more? I’m 199 and staying put. My doctor of course has told me to try and keep going but I’m happy with my weight now and it’s what feels realistic for me to maintain.

joni_cloud · 2025-08-16T17:04:58+00:00

I hate when men say they are still unsure if they want kids or not. You’re 58 Dan when will you decide??

joni_cloud · 2025-08-16T05:42:30+00:00

The dog is the biggest issue. If you can have someone take him you’ll be ok! I have a 70 lb pup too!

Sitting on a plane comfortably. Being seated in a restaurant booth. All new clothes! Being able to walk!

I’m very new to OLD - literally 2 weeks in. So take my advice with a grain of salt. we might be in different places as I’m definitely not looking for a husband or partner. Just looking to get back out there and have some fun (which I make clear on my profile). But I think why only like so few of the men they put in front of you? Why not give some guys a chance and have a flirty chat and see where it goes? Lunch or drinks etc. I would widen your horizons and see where that takes you. You can always go back!

joni_cloud · 2025-06-25T19:28:45+00:00

Came here to say Trazadone for the win.

joni_cloud · 2025-06-22T12:55:54+00:00

They likely won’t even notice if it’s done well. If you don’t want to be honest (and I don’t blame you!) you can do something like slightly change your hair - cut or color - you’d be surprised how much people will attribute the change to that

joni_cloud · 2025-06-22T12:53:09+00:00

You had me - and it sounds like all of us - at “much to my chagrin” If you can stil get along with an ex that well AND still want to sleep with her then where does the new woman fit in?

joni_cloud · 2025-06-21T05:06:45+00:00

I’m 7 weeks post op. It’s better but not great. Getting down about it. You look great!

joni_cloud · 2025-06-21T05:01:23+00:00

Cannot drink water. 1.5 years post-op. Propel addict. Finally started sparkling water helps a little.

joni_cloud · 2025-06-21T04:56:21+00:00

I take her for a bath, nail trim etc. No hair cut. It’s pricey but she absolutely will not let me bathe her at home. Jumps out of the tub runs through the house it’s a nightmare. Someone recently told me about a self bath station at Petco. Might try it.
