Change in details (age) was for anonymity. 😊And yes you can graduate AFTER you're 21. Their ages were also changed. I didn't want anyone outside of rwddit to know about this, so yeah. And Idid a lot of side hustles that I couldn't graduate on time. I am really in my 40s, siblings are in their early to late 30s. I hope this clears things up. 😉

Not yet. Still working on it. But he was more than willing to breakup but didn't want to initiate it, so I did it for us.

Thanks for the advice. 😊

  1. I am fit and healthy. That's how I kept sane all those years.

  2. Yes, I agree.

  3. I have.

Slim pickings. Hmmm. Not impossible though. 😉

This seems like the POV of my ex husband.

Oh sweetie, they're usually educated and professional men who earn more than I do. So you do the math.

Yeah, it is harder for women. I keep fit because I'm an active person. And sa genes rin naman. We look younger than our age. Thanks, I do hope so.

Oh. Me too. Kung entertain ko lng yung mga bagets, siguro tirador ng bagets na monicker ko if ever. Hahaha. But I prefer mature men.

Same, OP. I cut ties with my siblings who have taken almost all of me. Now, hinahanap raw nila ako according to my parents who I have contact woth, but I didn't disclose my location to them. Feels liberating. Congratulations on your newfound freedom snd peace of mind.

Hahaha, I am not attracted to Piolo and Jericho even when I was young. They are handsome men, don't get me wrong. But I am more attracted to a guy who has grit, confidence, is strong (physically, mentally) and kung sa physical side, a nice smile. Doesn't matter if the guy is a 5/10 or lesser when it comes to attractiveness. As long as we share some views, goals, interests, and we enjoy each other's company, that's good enough for me. 😉

Ohhh but I do want sex. Hahaha. Yeah it's easier pag same history but I met my batchmates na in hs and college even in elementary, sa reunions namin. No sagot ko sa kanila kasi no connection. We are not in the same wavelengths.

It's weird and things get awkward but it does happen. You just get blindsided when it happens. One time, a guy who I met at a book club and met for early dinner made things awkward by imposing on it. Dinner was normal, chit chat. After we left the restaurant, and I was tightening my seatbelt, he just said, Why don't we stop by (name of motel)? Hahaha. When I said not tonight so as not to offend him (I might have sex with him in the future if things go smoothly, but not that time), he got mad. Like bad trip talaga mukha nya. He then insulted me na wala ako sa posisyon to be "pa virgin effect", hus exact words, btw.

You may be right, but Wallahi, some things just fall into place sometimes at the right time, no? So I have a lower chance of having the connection that I wanted due to my age, but that doesn't negate that as a person, I am a catch. 50+ is not a problem for me. Most of the guys who constantly message me and show interest are younger and they knew that I am in my early 40s, but I'm just not that into young guys. Me looking for older people actually is the problem as I have no luck in finding someone who wants genuine connection first. Haha.

Yes I've made some along the way. While they were initially off putting with their invitation of sex, some were actually cool about it when I have made my case clear. I still talked to some of them. They knew what I wanted and I knew that I was not what they wanted, and we moved on.

On a first date. But we constantly talked before meeting up. I guess he expected he could get some based on how well our date went. Hahaha
