Dating in your 60's .... online dating at that Take it from my experience, I have been on and off these online dating sites for over 20 plus years. Yes, you are hearing me say it has been over 20 years of letting my fingers do the walking, with a many text messages, dozens of emails and phone calls and even fewer coffee meetings! For me, being a normal guy with a sense of humor, common sense and a relatively decent looking guy (albeit a few pounds heavier than my doctor think - naw what does he know ) You must be asking yourself, how can it be sad meeting so many people in one forum? Isn't that great... well living in a fishbowl online can also be detrimental. We, or at least me having many resources right at your fingertips can and usually does lead to missed timing and sometimes a superficial attraction to someone (or the idea of a person). Dating is not easy, nor should it be. When two people, especially adults with their own separate lives meet there has to be a bit of a push and pull to "integrate" ...err this is according to one friend "assimilate" into each others life. We hall have found a path that has worked in some ways and in one direction or another. Here is an example. For me, my preference is to find a partner who is mature and who has varied life experiences who knows how to laugh and listen. That is far greater that a seeing a "hot" bodied woman without common sense or decency. While a few friends have met (and married) younger women, this is not something for me. Bring me complex and a woman with depth, who is emotionally and physically fit. One with common sense and know how to laugh.   Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment. |
