Default Newly Single

I've been in The Villages for nine years but became single a few weeks ago.

Looking to get to know some nice women.

My interests are music and golf.

PM for more details.

I am very sorry for you. I hope you are alright. I can't imagine a loss like that. Don't jump into anything too fast. Give yourself a time to adjust.

Best of luck to you. It is likely quite difficult for you right now. Been there. Done that.

A musician And a golfer?

I bet the ladies can't wait to get a piece of that!



P.S. I'm also a golfer, but I'm not a musician... I play guitar...

But seriously, hope things work out well for you!

Dr. Boogie, Condolences for your loss. There is a thriving singles scene here in The Villages. Most of it is very laid back and non-threatening. To get an idea of what's available, you can go to Facebook and search for the group Single in The Villages.

Before this goes too far what assumptions are being made about "a loss" ? I'm sympatric to any kind of loss but why does my gut tell me this is heading somewhere it was not intended ?

There are a number of singles clubs/Facebook sites. It's one way to meet people.

Be careful, THE GOLD DIGGERS are good at their game! Secure your finances ... always keep your financial situation mysterious to future prospects! Casseroles are overrated, a thick steak and a baked potato can seal the deal...can you drive at night?

I found computer dating disappointing. Many "fakes" out there. Some are on it just for fun.
Other than computer dating, I found most women to be sincere, but yes, there are some "gold diggers", so one must be careful.
Take your time, yes, but do not be afraid of "jumping in", if it seems the right match comes along. We are not getting any younger.
You are welcome to PM me for more of my experiences.
Good Luck!

Did he say his spouse passed? I didn't read that.

I'm not sure he is saying his spouse passed, or if it she was his wife, maybe she just left.
