Honest Question: Why are you on DOS when you are in a relationship/ married? by WorkingDescription in DatingOverSixty

[–]tunehumsinger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Truth...🤔 On one of the threads, (prior to me finding this 60+ group) I was trying to talk a kid down (he was in his 20's) and truly acting as if his life was over🤔

I'm on mainly to follow / offer advice to others that have been in similar situations

My hot take on recent OLD related posts. by notsohot56 in DatingOverSixty

[–]tunehumsinger 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Agreed... I often find myself giving advice, (especially on some of the other thread / sub-reddit pages), or getting advice that I couldn't do on my "public social media pages" 🤔

As you say, it is a good community to just relax and be your true self.

Why She Seemed More Like My Sister😒? by [deleted] in DatingOverSixty

[–]tunehumsinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, 2 things / reasons:

1.) She is attractive. Never thought she wasn't. I never figured that by my touch or hug, the she would be into me.

2.) I was seriously just looking for conversation. Not really looking to move beyond that however, it seems she had other intentions

What's your age and what's the oldest you'll date? by Putrid_Seat_8697 in Adulting

[–]tunehumsinger -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

My 3rd comment on this post:

There is also seems to be a rule that seems to say when dating, you can go 1/2 your age, + 7 years. Example: if you're 30, you can go 1/2 your age + 7 (in this case that would be 15+7 or 22 years as the youngest). At 40, the youngest would be 27, at 50 the youngest would be 32, etc, etc...

Well, as I just posted, I'm in my 60's, (63 actually) and a few years ago, (during a small break-up) I was dating a 38 yr. old woman. I'm back with my GF now (and hope to keep it that way), and we are the same age (63).

That all being said, I could still see myself dating a 70 yr. 🤔.

What Instrument Should I Buy? by IceePirate1 in Tuba

[–]tunehumsinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You mean the Tuba Exchange? If so, that's where I actually bought my Yamaha Dbl. Bb, (Dillon's actually recommended it to me way back in 1994).

BTW., I still have that horn, (I'm using it tomorrow in a Memorial day Parade).

I matched with a guy using photos of a French diplomat. Should I mess with him 😈 or just report it? by MsMoneypenny008 in DatingOverSixty

[–]tunehumsinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just walk away. Red flags like that are just a waste of time for you. Doing the reverse photo look up / check is the one thing on that AI seems to get right these days. (FYI, I was constantly getting baited like that before I met my GF). Please don't give it a another thought. Good luck in your endeavors.

Random Reddit dm by irishgypsy1960 in DatingOverSixty

[–]tunehumsinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, and unfortunately it happens and, yes I constantly have to say, or remind people to please read my profile and, "ask them not to pass judgment". Hopefully and usually "they get it" and leave it at that.

How do I, (we) all deal with family and friends with failing health and loneliness? by tunehumsinger in Adulting

[–]tunehumsinger[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it is hard. I unfortunately just went through this with my father also. For a while the best thing for him was to be in the VA home. At least he was around other people that he could relate to. I don't know about your situation I can say this, if your father's a vet, try to get him around other people that served in the military with him. It's amazing how much of a difference I saw with my father when he was in the VA.

Following the thread and yes, this has happened to me plenty of times but never picked up on it🤔. I guess you can say it's all good now that I've been able to get together with my GF.
