LATER DATING -- FUN or FIASCO?


How does a funkyfifty approach the issue of dating at a later date --as it were? At our age one would think we´d got it all worked out, knowing exactly what we want. But do we- DO WE? How many of us are guilty of repeating past mistakes? Falling time and time again for the same type?
Where do we meet these elusive males that we have always dreamed of? That always say just what you wanted to hear? That are always ready for fun, trips, shopping, serious drinking, doing the crossword, dancing till dawn depending on your fancy? Answer -- they only exist in your dreams! My experience of the male specie (did I spell that right?) approaching 55-60 is one of a type pretty short on patience with anything that doesn´t interest HIM, where we women talk US they talk I, disapproving of excess eating, drinking or dancing (unless they are the ones doing it) and all in all fairly LAME. If other types exist please get quickly in touch.
On-line dating gives you the advantage of being able to be how you want to be, outrageous and funny, witty and intelligent without the pressure of actual physical presence and crafty you, if you get fed up just hit the button!
I doubt that men on line mention hairy backs or baldness, and what should we avoid -sagging bottoms, flabby underarms? Appearance isn´t everything (snigger, snigger) but let´s face it if you don´t find someone easy on the eye - it´s difficult! (And things can be difficult enough!)
This brings to mind the experience of an aquaintance of mine who answered a date-ad and when they finally met (after a little confusion) his first remark was ¨you´re flat chested" to which she replied "And you´re short" The resulting mutual attitude was one of " Well sod you then"

MOST matches are definitely not made in heaven, but on line - who knows?
