Hey, I became 'single again' at age 54 and had a great run until I pretty much burned out at age 60. I found the first show fun to watch, actually quite moving at times, so I am dating vicariously so to speak as at age 81 I do not want to go through wild and crazy dating again.

So. If you are dating vicariously, you might want to listen to a podcast called “Dating While Gray” by Laura Stassi. It has been around for a while. You can find it on the wunc.org website out of Chapel Hill public radio or wherever you find podcasts. Boomer

Thank you, Boomer. I am aware of her podcasts and have listened to a few. She has interviewed and written about some interesting people.
I just listened to Laura's latest podcast in which she talks with Veronica who took a pass as a contestant or whatever they are called on the show. I was amazed at the excruciating and lengthy casting process. It was an eye opener. Too, the women contestants have to leave their cell phones, computers, books, pets and so on behind. It is two months without pay. They have to provide their own wardrobes, makeup and hairdos at their own expense. Bummer!

Now that is appealing! One of my long term girlfriends whom I still see now and then had been married to a Frenchman who became a pilot for Air France. She had lived in Paris and studied cooking at Le Cordon Bleu. Her cooking spoiled me. We even made foie gras from duck livers.

A little advice to those single posters here from this long and happily married woman………
If you ever decide to get married at this point in life, I have one word for you — PRE-NUP! Boomer

Yes. I watched last night. Theresa seems to be the practical pick but he appeared to have more physical passion for Leslie (possibly/probably scripted to keep the audience on edge and engaged?). From what I have read as I have never watched one is that the Bachelor/Bachelorette shows have twists, turns and cliff hangers, like old time serials shown in matinees Saturdays at the movies.

A very well off acquaintance turned down a 4 million dollar engagement ring because it wasn’t valuable enough. I am not sure what she actually wants. But if he leaves the common law relationship it starts at 65 million for him. (He can afford it.) I just can’t figure out why anybody would get involved with such a gold digger in the first place? And the guy involved is the son one one of my best friends. This is his third try towards marriage. Personally, I think marriage starts when each if you will give your life for the other person… but maybe that’s just me. Last edited by Velvet; 11-17-2023 at 03:03 PM. |
