Only dates attractive women, although some have needed plastic surgery to make the grade, and while his brain seems not to have an edit button, his "equipment" sort of still works.

At least the OP has been able to cross one name off her list. I have been warned by the moderators not to direct comments at posters. So if I disappear for a while.. you deserve all the derision people have directed at you in the replies, and you might note that not a single person has come to your defense. That would be a clue for most people.

Give him a break----maybe he's a Premarin salesman :1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:

Ummmmm, this is THE INTERNET. THE WEB. AN ANONYMOUS FORUM with people hiding behind fake personnas with silly avatars. VERY SADLY, the reponses received are exactly what one would expect in these places. Have any family in middle school? Ask them what their "forum" (facebook, instagram etc) is like. Kind of like saying that if you hang out in a sex club you'll meet nice church or temple going people you can bring home to family. Now if this conversation were held FACE TO FACE in a restaurant, local club, church etc or even on the street I would agree with you 100%. Look up CATFISHING just for one suggestion to get you started. If anyone expects anything different from places like this they need to do some internet research. Sorry, you expectations don't match reality.

Obviously, this is a very, very hot topic. . . amazed at some of the responses from certain names. . . . . For those into reading about the men / women real life sexual/mating/partner dance, there is a non fiction book about seduction called "The Game", written by a NYT writer as an assignment (I read it over 10 years ago, so might be the wrong paper) , which describes the push pull sub conscious techniques men and women use as part of the sexual dance.

Since reading the book, I saw the events happen to me in real time, and was like wow! there is alot to the sexual dance from a psychological point of view . .. . especially in the prime of our lives (but the same will happen in retirement).

The book is written from the point of a man, but both sexes play specific roles, and the main protaganist, named "Mystery" describes, and explains the dance, as well as how to short circuit the dance. .. all about psychology . . . .

very well worth the read, and the lesson to take away is to be worthy first, be the best you can be, ie, not a slob and not a misogynist, etc, but don't hate the player, hate the game. . .

good luck

My observation; all happy couples seem to play the same way, and the unhappy are unhappy in their own way. Nothing wrong with a game where you both win.

I hope you find your soul mate so to speak.

Hmmmmmm . . .
 
After thinking about the OP's original post for a few days, I find it becoming more and more strange. I've been wondering to myself why she has thrown her situation out to the public -- here on a public forum, although she is totally anonymous.

If she is on this website she has, at least, a smattering of knowledge regarding the Internet. I question why she has not gotten herself on a few of the senior websites where she can state whatever she wants about herself and exactly what she is seeking. What she would do with responders and how she would answer them is no different than what she would do anyway -- there, here on this site or wherever.

Logic also tells me and anyone with one iota of sense that to meet anyone in a new community, you have to make yourself available and join clubs, groups, the pool, the squares for evening entertainment, etc. The avenues for meeting people in this area are endless.

So I ask myself . . . What is the OP's post really about?
Yes -- I find it all very strange.

You have to kiss alot of frogs before you find a prince. . . but a watched pot never boils. .

so there is the perfect historical advice which always applies. . unless he lives over the bridge . . .

I'm seeking an unmarried gentlemen in his 60's for companionship, friendship and happy times. BTW - The gentlemen MOST be unmarried. Do you guys have any suggestions? Thanks !

That takes a lot of guts to start a thread like this on Talk of the Villages probably well knowing what kind of responses you will get if you have read TOTV for a while.

it was another avenue of meeting people and just maybe some nice men PM her and if she gets one nice friend from this it will be worth having to read some pretty awful posts along with the nice ones

that was my 1st thought, LOL

You can now forget about finding someone that fits the bill here as you just let everyone know just how comfortable you are so chances are anyone that sends you a PM will be just the type of guy you don't want.

you shared the best advice yet--be yourself, & don't 'show' wealth. i found my hubby through the want ads, lol, long before the age of the pc. i let him do all or most of the talking & learned what i needed to know. final thought: your mate will come along when least expected, best of luck to ye~! :)

At least she's honest up front and got that out of the way. Not my cup of tea but she will be for someone

Hmmmm . . . Well, uhhhh. Oh, never mind! :shocked:

Taltarzac725 10-16-2021 04:54 PM

She is asking anyone on here as there are many women users of Talk of the Villages. I have had a few of them come up to me and ask me if I was "Tal". These were ladies I never saw before and the two I am thinking if had been in Minnesota for work.

I have also ran across many people who have lived in, worked or, at least, visited Reno, Nevada or near there like at the Air Force Base at Stead, Nevada.

And she seems to be saying she is looking for something meaningful more than just a hook-up.

Well if you are interested one can PM the OP, then all your questions and concerns could be answered.

Many new people have met using this forum, for years. Some to start a new club, some looking for a workout buddy, and some for just friendship.

One can have a deep personal friendship without any intimacy. Happens everyday, my best friend for over 30 years is gay, I can’t think of a time when they weren’t by my side in my sadness or my happiness moments

Bonanza 10-17-2021 03:43 PM

Questions and Concerns? Nope!

I did not say I was "interested," and certainly not interested enough to send the OP a PM. All I said was that I found her post "strange." Any question on my part was rhetorical (refer to my comment, "So I ask myself . . ."). "Concerns?" I didn't have any.

"Many new people have met using this forum?" Some perhaps, but that was not anything I mentioned. I also did not mention anything about intimacy or a homosexual relationship either. If you garnered up any of those things from reading my comment, then the onus is on you because none of those things even entered my thought process or were part of it, and certainly were not part of the written word.
