| What do men 60 plus want? Posted: 8/11/2006 6:14:32 AM | Personally I found that most women are not particularly good at making love, they are either passive or so shy that they have to be caoxed or coached along.
Wow, check out Casanova here. As if he has slept with MOST women. I know this may come as a shock to your ego, but maybe the one that sucked in bed was (gasp) YOU!! | |

| What do men 60 plus want? Posted: 8/11/2006 7:45:59 AM | Men 60 plus most likely want what us ladies who are 60 plus - fun, romance, companionship, the same things we wanted when we were in our 40's, only at a bit slower rate. I am 63, single and enjoying my lifestyle very much - work a full time job, have a small business I work at home also and I don't have to worry about what to cook for dinner, no kids to keep control of (they seem to switch roles at this age) and I can go to bed as late as I want with no one telling me what I can or cannot do! Men are great - we all are great, we are still here and no one pleases everyone, take the time to please yourself and the rest follows naturally. | |

| What do men 60 plus want? Posted: 8/12/2006 4:47:01 AM | | How silly. We want what we want. Its up to you to make it happen and keep it that way. In real life, its just a routine. We need to stay in a grateful mind and live like that all the time. Going to 12 step meetings keeps me centered on just being happy just for today and if you are having a difficult time in life, using the tools in the Big Book with the 12 steps and 12 traditions, helps us out in all areas of our lives. And enjoying the fellowship of the folks there too. Having a cup of coffee and smoking a cigarette, for those who smoke it outside, makes for romance and long term friendship. Note: I did not meet my bf there. He I met in another dating site. | |

Ain’t that the truth!
Being retired, we can go where we want, with whomever we want, stay as long as we want, and never have to tell anyone about it if we don’t want.
Some of us just returned from the lake this afternoon because we have a school reunion picnic today. We all have cell phones and computers (I installed cable at the cottage), so none of us had to tell others we were even gone -- e-mails and telephone calls went on as usual. Except for the nights we went out to bars & such, it was a very relaxing time. The place gets infested with kids and grandkids on holidays & such, but most of the time it is a very quiet (and private) there.
I’m not too sure that the “slower” part applies yet, though. When I think of slowing down I think of the people who live where my 94 year old mother lives. Those of us in the middle 60s seem to be just as active as we were in our early 40s, we’re just doing different things nowadays.

| What do men 60 plus want? Posted: 8/15/2006 12:40:05 PM | At 58 I am trying not to look too closely at 60 - but its coming. Not sure what men of over sixty want only know what don't want. I do not want to revert back into the wife/little woman role. Gave 33 years of my life to that - I have no regrets as this would mean regretting my children and the time I gave to them. I am in awe of my children and all that they have achieved and what fabulous parents they are - they are doing such a great job with their children that I have only pleasure from the three little people.
I have a job which I have waited all my working life for - so life is great.
I have no desire to spend my time trying to make another person happy or being subjected to mood swings. Neither do I wish to be put down, in public, when I offer a considered opinion
I do not want to asked 'where have you been' if I am two minutes late home or why did I spend £X on whatever it was when I pay the bills on my little house and the spare cash is mine.
Whilst in one post the gentleman said he would like intelligent conversation and I agree it is important but I also all too often find the conversation is limited to the ex or the aches and pains.
I suspect that I will be single forever as I have grown out of wanting to be 'looked after' 'spoiled/controlled' and I have little desire to 'look after' or spoil/control another.
Oh dear - I had hopped to grow old disgracefully does not seem much chance of that now especially as I feel about twenty in the head.
It would be nice sometimes to have a partner but is the cost too high - should'nt we be an advantage to each other in a relationship?
Too often we are in a make do and mend situation rather than be alone. Having got my self free of this at great personal cost perhaps I have become far to self-sufficient during the past five years for my own good. However, the peace is great until the grand children come to see me.
I enjoy this forum so thank you all for the interesting posts and great points of view.

"Just One Of U'
I don't presume to speak for men, in general..Here is what I want.
The same things I wanted 10, 20, 30, and 40 years ago.
A caring, and loyal companion..Love of nature..Health and happiness.
And, the time to enjoy it....Bob | |

| What do men 60 plus want? Posted: 8/15/2006 8:34:07 PM | I understand where you are coming from - too many people on here waiting for Mr or Miss right to come along - maybe will happen before their 70 or 80. They only want a serious relationship - they want to pass on the fun part This year is the big 60 - what do I want?
A women who can take care of herself - why should I support her and need to look after her? Plenty of cold beer A good adrenalin rush Good sex
Well, I guess 2 out of 4 isn't bad!! | |

| What do men 60 plus want? Posted: 8/16/2006 6:27:55 AM | This whole thread is funnier than hell.
I completely understand the OP's complaint about unreasonable expectations.
I hear the gripes about the OP's tone, although I find her tone amusing and readable.
What stands out is what total characters you over 60's are. You're all so damned honest.
Think I'll go looking for someone to tell me a pack of lies. | |

| What do men 60 plus want? Posted: 8/28/2006 8:55:58 PM | Our minds remain (well mine anyway) around 19 years old but the body just doesn't want to keep up. Caring, loyalty, happiness.....great. It's the old golden year annoyances that screw everything else up. We just have to learn to live with it and think as young as we want. U a body builder?  | |

| What do men 60 plus want? Posted: 8/29/2006 8:46:29 PM | | 19 isn't too bad but, yes, it is hard for the body to keep up. Thank god for Advil!! Now if I could only convince the younger people I meet that this 19 year old x4 ++ wants to have fun and play. | |

| What do men 60 plus want? Posted: 8/30/2006 8:17:24 AM | 1 is one too many to have to support and look after. I thought when we grew up we would all learn to be self sufficient. My mistake. What ever happened to equality?  | |

| What do men 60 plus want? Posted: 7/14/2007 11:42:21 AM | A friend once told me they were either looking for a nurse or a purse! Being in that age group I would just like to find a male friend to hang out with and if something sparked go from there. Doesn't seem to be any around my part of town. | |

| What do men 60 plus want? Posted: 7/14/2007 12:09:17 PM | | Sorry, I dont agree with you. You put girls over 60 like there days are over and wait to die. Not me I have a lots of energy, every thing on me works fine. I want a realationship and he might have trouble keeping up with me. I work at live theatre and I keep up with the young ones. I go to Vegas, with friends. All my girl friend are still full o energy!!! I have a lot to offer a man, and I think you do too, but you forgot you do, I will never just lay down a die. You need to think that way, your attractive lady and look at life different than you do. Good Luck............. | |

| What do men 60 plus want? Posted: 7/15/2007 10:27:42 PM | I want the coffee to be real, and fairly strong.. I want the biscuits chewy.. and the butter soft. I want the pies cherry.. and sour. I want to be left alone if I'm reading.. I want to buy my own ties.. I want you to roll towards me when we get in bed.. not me towards you. I want a book to be read twice.. and then to discuss it.. I want to lose to you at a game I am pretty good at.. I want to be your hero.. (Look..! Under the sink..! It's Plumberman..!!) [note: Plumberman will want the acetophenamin when he's done..]
I want to wonder every day why you picked someone like me..
Jim
Caveat: these answers will only be valid in..uhm..18 days.. | |
