old men.......hopeful or hopeless!! :-)Page 3 of 31    (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31)
I hear a lot of talk about how older men still have lead in their pencil but that is no way all that counts!
I have tried dating older men but find it is the attitude that has me running the other direction, not the sexual expertise.

In my experience the men have misrepresented themselves on the internet and called themselves a "young ....whatever age"and when you meet them they are wearing grandpa dacks and a hangdog expression. I say wanna go for a walk and they say "cant we sit and watch TV".
They then sit and tell you what they want and do and what they expect from you, and that they dont do all those immature things that young people do even though they are the one shopping out of their age group.

I have found that the older guys had a totally different out look on life and sounded like my mum and dad, and that is creepy, no one wants to be patronized by their partner, or treated like a child.

And I get the incubator thing too, when a older man wants you at 40 to start bearing his children even though you have no kids on your profile! like you are running out of time or something, and cant wait to rear children on your own when he keels over in 10 years time of a heart attack trying to keep up with them.

Besides, I'm gunna make myself realllly unpopular by saying I dont want a saggy old man when I can date someone my own age, .........and before you slag off at me, if you are not saggy, good on ya... happy fishing in whatever pool you like.

You gotta take note of all the men on this site that winge that the younger woman does everything wrong by them, so they still keep chasing younger women... ..go figure

I like this lead pencil grading system...I guess those in viagra territory are in the mechanical pencil league?
The softer lead is still good for shading and stuff.

I guess a lesbian would be akin to an eraser....at the end of the day can wipe all those pencils out.

But then its only good for rubbing.

What about those electric pencil sharpeners then eh? They just chew up pencils like you wouldn't believe. The Paris Hilton model is particularly noteworthy. You've gotta be careful not to leave it in too long, or there's nothing left of it within seconds.

Some of them even seem to be able to restore even the oldest of pencils to an as new, perfectly sharp, condition....like the Anna Nicole model.

If we're talking about pencils, I wouldn't mind some really dark lead - maybe a HB or a B

An ode to old men........
Now im old and feeble
And my pilot light is out
What used to be my sex appeal
Is now my water spout.

T'was a time when of its own accord
From my trousers it would spring
Now i have a real hard job
To find the blasted thing.

I used to be embarrased
To make that thing behave
For every single morning
It would stand to watch me shave

But as old age approaches
It sure gives me the blues
To see it hang its withered head
And watch me tie my shoes!!!

1800 that's a good one.....sorry old dudes, but you have to laugh

I have to admit an older man does not appeal to me whatsover, but as I get older I have to bump up my age range that bit more...I think I'm having trouble finding someone because I want the mature age with the younger mans physical features. I guess the guys have the same problem too, so I really can't be too picky now can I?

i must admit i can see where 1800 is coming from.....i am only 34, and i couldnt see myself dating or seeing anyone older than 37ish at the most........i just wouldnt find them attractive (and they prob think the same about me lol) and i dont think that its shallow, its just the fact that you are attracted to who you are attracted to.....

just my opinion

BUT, I tend to wonder what things attract two people of extremely different ages.
..............................................................................................................................
Im 41 hes 53 is this a huge age differance Im interested what people may think? does this come in to the category off 1800:s to old ? as far as what attraction came into it , when there is mutual attraction, there is no age barrier.
when you have the same interests,humor,sexual preferances,dreams etc are both on the same *wave length* theres no older than me principal...were just two people in a relationship..

I must say though when I first met him some off his mates gave him a hard time,implicating I was his mistress!
.....well I WAS ONLY 32 then.

Come to think off it ...I havnt recieved any furs lately

That’s what everyone else says not finding attractive or appealing, these women don't find older men appealing as you don't find older women appealing.

B4 hiding my profile I had boys in their 20's sending me messages. Different people different taste. maybe they were looking for mother figure type but it was as depressing as when a much older man approaches you.

It sort of becomes a question of WHAT???? why???

Although either really should be taken as compliment.

An old drinking song went something like:

"gotta get a women, get a woman if you can,
if you can't get a woman get a clean old man..."

(lucky I'm not that desperate......yet!)

When I was about 24 I dated a guy quite a bit older than me... he was about 39. Now I will preface what I am about to say by clarifying that I know this experience does not automatically reflect on all men his age...and given that men of his age are now men pretty much my current age, this can only be a good thing to clarify.

I met him through work (no, not my boss). I found him sexy for whatever reason, and we got on really well outside of work. We started going out, and I did eventually fall for him. Because of the age difference, it was widely assumed that I was interested in his money...which was hilarious in one way, cos what I knew that they didn't, was that he didn't have any money. He hid it well publicly... some people are quite adept at giving that impression with smoke and mirrors. It didn't bother me, and we were together a year. What made it less hilarious was that some of his friends, and his parents, treated me with contempt....and this was more than just teasing....some made it quite clear they thought I was a sl*t, which was extremely upsetting for me as I was quite genuine in my feelings for him at the time, and I am clearly not the bimbo type, and I value my dignity. I hated that aspect of it.

The age difference did make things weird at times, and as much as I like to think I am not a stupid person, I guess sometimes we don't see what is staring us in the face. Love is blind and all that, and my friends saw many things evolve well before I did. Yes, he did start to talk down to me. Yes he was only really attentive in public when I served a purpose to show off that he had a younger woman. No, he wasn't interested in the things I was interested in. And, as for lead in pencils, well this proves love must be blind....cos let's just say that he wrote short letters (maybe just call them post-it notes and be done with it). He wrote too infrequently. And you had to hope the occasional note covered everything, cos after one, it was pens down. (can I buy a vowel?)

May I say that, at the tender age of 65, I still have respect for a woman, something that the younger generation seem to miss. I am very old-fashioned in this respect, but, having been raised well by my Parents, good manners still maketh the man, and no way will I change just to suit today's poor and dropping standards of behaviour.
I have been divorced and solo for the last 28 years, tired of being regarded as just another dirty old man at my age. I have learned to do without the ladies, but, should the occasion ever arise,l I would treat my escort with every due care and attention, and, should the good lady require something more than just friendship, then the same good manners apply in bed, and respect for the lady's feelings, and for her limits.Here, I am quite happy to be the lover, for age is but two numbers. It is how the lady is treated that is so important whatever her age .
