Online dating in your 40s - part 3!

[StarlightSparkle]

A new thread, so we can continue discussing the depressing reality of the above!

I've just read a profile that said "can u put ur hands in ur head oh no" - WTF does that even mean?? Fuck sake! Completely give up. I know 3 year olds that make more sense than some of these men if you can call them that

Maybe we should share some of the massively awful bios we read each day, least it would shed some humor on this dreaded OLD!

Maybe @Angelofdeath - Ive pinched my Mums dog since Ive moved into my new house, so maybe I should get out there and see if I can find a nice dog walker . I just cant be bothered to get dressed at the minute....felt so poorly the last few days, I have no energy at all.

@pineappleonpizzaornot can't bear these 'partner in crime' ones. I do wonder how they do it when they have kids, free to do whatever they want whenever they want.

Another new one, not asking questions, just said that he runs out of things to say ... you could at least try!! He's not said anything yet except OLD is slow because of covid!! I swear I'll give up soon!

@Eesha - I know what you mean, and the "dont take life too seriously!" mmmm, I had one of those which in turn meant I was the one that worried about the bills, the shopping, the present buying, the meals each night, the cleaning, the ironing....I want someone that does take life seriously, and knows that life is bloody hard work sometimes!
Just looked at another profile, and its him and a child, probably about 6 years old and the child is giving "the bird"....why the hell would anyone think that's a nice picture, he has good morals, I really like him! Skeffy fecker!

Just seen a profile saying the man is gay and looking to convert. Anyone interested?

@Eesha - made me LOL! Fight you for him!

Just read this -
"Work hard play harder,also I dont play harder,no time. Anyway Im starting again and Im scared no longer in the Army Im a landscape gardener (look it up) I want somebody to understand me".

That is word for word, grammer or lack of it Just how it is written!
How has my life ended up here??

@pineappleonpizzaornot Lyrics for Dreamer I think.By Supertramp. "Can you put your hands in your head ,oh no"Must be of a certain age,and I'm way over 40 to quote this!All good fun though!Don't know how you girls keep going with old ,hats off to you !

@Caramelblonde - Thanks for that! Maybe he shouldn't quote lyrics as a bio .

I had one message me a few months ago asking if I was busy as his "rents" were doing his head in.....my son had to tell me "rents" meant parents! Im not down with the kids obviously, and Im quite pleased about that

@pineapple Some of these men have never grown into adults I'm sure! My ex had football posters on his bedroom wall, like he was 12, in his mid fifties ffs!

I've had two guys block me today because I've said I'm not into casual sex 😆 Good riddance!

Wow, OLD is just the gift that keeps on giving isnt it!!
How does anyone actually meet anyone these days I’d love to know 😂😂

@pineappleonpizzaornot hope youre feeling a little better now, must have been miserable feeling that discomfort ☹️

Ive gone back on tinder... wish me luck haha

@Shayelle2009 sending lots of luck and @Zoomme good riddance is right!

I'm leaving Mr Boring to it, not asking any more questions, just letting him ask and replying. It's limping along 😫

@Zoomme I hate having to put the hard work in. Let him think of how to get conversation going!

😆 I am doing, but he's just telling me what he's watching on TV. Obviously doesn't want to know anything about me 🤔

Hows it going with mr beach @onemorerose? Hope hes making a bit more effort.

I'd love some advice,I've only been OLD 4 weeks. Ive been messaging a guy most of that time a few messages every evening. We mostly talk about sport and TV programs. We live in different parts of the country so won't be meeting in the next while. I have that I have a daughter in my profile but I never mention it in my conversation with the guy. Do you talk about your kids or not?

Also is it better to chat with a number of different guys at once or focus on one at a time?
Thanks all

Rubbish week for me.
Old 1 gone quite
Was meant to meet the young one for a walk at the weekend but my app zapped me so I have to stay home.
1 dick pick 3 messages in once I have him my WhatsApp.
1 didn’t no what he wanted, scared as “been led up the garden path before” wanted to see what the sex was like before he decided.

I give up
