As I put it "Thankfully...the hormones have died down and that makes life so much easier". Cant say I didn't try to find Mr Right when I was younger - but I'm not going to go looking for him now that's for sure. At my age (60s now) I tend to think that much of the reason men in my agegroup are looking for a woman is to have a "resident nursemaid" to hand if they need one. No thanks - I'd have signed up for being a "girlfriend" and not a carer..ceridwenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07618044461222968902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-44916191887580160622015-10-21T16:15:29.759+01:002015-10-21T16:15:29.759+01:00Definitely criptic these.

I have had a few lady friends who are widowed and they all say the same thing....at this stage in the game, they would rather not get involved with another man, because it is too much trouble and too time consuming to train another one. Men seem to be different. Many middle aged men here who have been recently widowed go out and look for a new woman right away, just as they would do for a new vehicle. My friend has a theory about this. She says that men are in such a rush to remarry because they can't find any clean socks. ha ha. Mary Jane in Canada.

After I got to know her a bit, I asked her if she had ever considered getting married. She said that there had been someone once, but then she thought of washing his socks and decided singleness was for her! She died at about 90, still her lovely, humorous and kind self, still happily single.Attilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15916442932314835859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-61955579616661804202015-10-20T21:16:10.348+01:002015-10-20T21:16:10.348+01:00Hi Ilona – I recently wrote a post on my very brie...Hi Ilona – I recently wrote a post on my very brief shot at internet dating (having been egged on by my friends after my ex left), and you know what, it wasn’t a bad experience at all. Ok you have to be careful but there seem to be a lot of nice men out there just looking for some company too. I had quite a few men contact me, and I have to admit I think they liked my profile to be honest – something along the lines of “fat, 50 and menopausal, not interested in your car or your wallet, can build my own white picket fence, and if you really want to know what I like in bed it’s complete control of the TV remote and a cheese sandwich”. (That last bit was in response to a genuine nutter who asked me that – thought I might as well head em off at the pass, so to speak).<br />After my ex left me, a colleague started asking me out – pestering me really, as I wasn’t interested to begin with. He is 13 years older than me (70 to my 57) and we have been together 6 years, so I guess I really am lucky to have my silver fox. I still find him very sexy, but he is also incredibly intelligent and funny – which, in any case, will always top looks in my books. He is still legally married but has been separated for over 20 years. I’m ok with that as I don’t want to live with him and am not after anything else. I like having my own place, doing my own thing, and then having his company and spoiling him a bit too. It’s not easy as you get more set in our ways, but I like men’s company. Trouble is, you can’t live with em but you’re not allowed to shoot em either.
