my advise, is move on and let her move on too... if relationships fail the first time, they fail even more catastrophicaly the second. DOnt wast your time or hers, see it as a learning experience be grateful for the good times and all you have learned... get happy on your own and then when you are ready somone new and even better will show up for you....

Whats it like being single over 30?
Posted: 11/21/2009 1:59:33 PM

It's all relative. I see a theme here. People 28-35 worried that they're getting too old and married life has passed them by and then the over 35's who have been married and now feel a real sense of freedom in being able to live life as they see fit. To the first group: committed or married relationships are not all they're cracked up to be


ye see brian its not all its cracked up to be for those folk whos relationships have failed, there are millions of happy commited people enjoying what some of us singles are hoping for, those people are not writing on these forums, they are too busy enjoying their fulfilling relationships.....

Josh!!!!! Dont delete it silly, and dont be fishing for complimetns either!! Just add what your ideal girl would be, thats all I sugested, teh rest is fine now. And start to get some interests, what have you always wanted to try? Get involved and then you will have plenty to add to your profile, and probably meet more girls while doing new things.

the older they get the more experienced and the more they realize what matteres most. We all have standards, beleive me I do, but I am talking about as ladies and guys get older, they are expected to mature more and that is the assumption


that is partly true, but it does not mean we are easily pleased which is what you implied initialy, we go out with a lot less men in our 30's than our 20's because we wont waste our time with unsuitable people, that to me means fussier and pickier about all aspects physical and personality. So you are still wrong about us being less fussy about physical defects. Its much harder to get into our pants no matter what age the guy is. I personally only date 5 years + or 5yrs -.

The older the lady is, the more chance she will be accepting and she will overlook any physical flaws you may have

so wrong, the older we get the fussier we get, we are happier, more confident more secure in ourselves and more independent and solvent, therefore will not settle for anything less than what makes us truely happy. You really dont get how womens minds work do yo? You are full of assumptions and untruths, and a lot of negativity, i sense real issues with women.



I don't beleive about that sexual peek for ladies at 40 propaganda.


And you dont believe this because? How would you know what a woman is feeling sexually internally, and how that feeling compares to how she felt when younger?. I'm mid 30's and it gets better and better, and because of all those quailities I listed above, confidence etc we are more open, more adventurous and less self concious. its no myth, its not propegannda. Again another untruth and ignorance from your part amillo-bello.

What was the very first Beatles Tune you heard released on the Radio?
Posted: 11/12/2009 6:05:08 AM
over 30 doesnt mean over 60. I was yet a twinkle in my fathers eye when Beatles released first songs. in fact my father may have been a twinkle in his fathers eye. Please post this topic in the music thread, its hard enough being 30 something without being made feel ancient!

Alot of women on this site need a reality check and need to humble themselves more and realize that alot of them sure many guys would just have a one night stand with them, you know, to have find with them, and then when then the night is done, just dump them, because they are not long term material at all.


This coming from a man who looks at least 10 years older than his profile says, looks neantherthal (and you mentioned cave man as a negative in your profile, why do you model yourself on one? )

I wont bother to quote all the other small minded shallow ugly words because I dont think anyone here needs to read it twice. I can only guess you have such a deluded opinion of yourself you probably think you are atractive, aw thats sad. No woman with an ounce of sense young or old would want to date you. You are the one who needs a reality check.

And really you need to look up the word spiritual, becasue if you think knocking others and judging, making huge generalisations is the behaviour of a spiritual person you need an education.

noone mentioned children or marrige, you brought it up. Newsflash women use gyms too. A lot easier to loose a few pounds and tone up for a woman than to shift a beer gut youve spent 20 years developing.

I know the question was so open, I expected it was going to be a questionaire or something, but that was the intent, just one open question and see waht the responders replied, what similarities arose without promt, which I now think was clever. But yes my immediate response was thats like asking me what its like to be me! So i answered that!

Going to do a revision??? Tips please??
Posted: 11/10/2009 11:41:32 AM
Hi,

just a few ideas, overall its good.
First your photos, you look better as the months go by so take down all before May 09! Hosenstly, there is no point having some really pretty photos and then some old ones that dont do you justice today, the guy might not read the small print and check the dates. He might think the recent ones are old!

I wouldnt say "if you are interested in sex keep going", unless you do not believe in sex before marrige, the way you wrote it it reads like there will NEVER be any sex! you could simply say you are not looking for no stings fun or something.

also you say you are not looking for anything serious yet have filtered out guys looking for activity partners and hang out, maybe permit those guys to mail you at least!

There were a few negatives and even referencing insecurity or clinginess is a turn off. So keep all statements positive and dont describe what you are not!!

good luck!

Hey Josh,
I dont think you are done yet, simply removing that stuff wont be enough, you have to put some more information up. I never reply to vague profiles, I like to see from the profile that the guy can think and express himself, so a profile that describes interests tastes and personality works better. Talk about music you are into (not "all music except heavy metal" this tells us nothing) your favourite movies, comedy, do you read ? sport (but not too much!) your idea of a fun night out, a bit about your goals (you are a young guy) describe the kind of girl you are interested in, (I love reading a profile where the guy describes his ideal and it sounds a lot like me) So get thinking and scribbling!!

I hate that body type thing actually becasue I'm not average, I'm tall and slim with curves in the right places!! So for that reason I dont think slim/ thin fits because I'm not a bean pole either!! They need one for slim but not skinny!!

Posted: 11/10/2009 9:04:30 AM
Hey thanks for all the reponses, its a fairly universal response, "its great i have my freedom,but it would be nice to have someone too"

Personaly the freedom aspect does nothing for me, I've never felt trapped in a relationship to be honest. Actually being single sometimes feels more stifling, for example, I have a mortage and feel trapped that I am resigned to live here forever with falling house prices, however if I was in a couple we could share the financial burden and make choices to move elsewhere together because costs wouldnt be such a factor. Also i am kinda sick of just thinking abut myself! not as narcissitic as I was in my 20's so it would be nice tohave someone else to consider!

I just took part in a piece of research, a psychology student asked me one question, but I had to talk for almost an hour, the question was " whats it like being single?"
I tried to be positive and not go down a self pity lane, but in summary I answered, lots of freedom, its expensive and i miss men!
for the over 30's out there whats it like being single?? Would especially like to hear the male perspective.

Robbie,

"For a male 30 onwards is a time of liberation when we are entering our physical and mental prime this when we are at our most confident we’ve left behind our spotty teens sailed through our shallow twenties made mistakes learnt from them and now our goals and aspirations are about to be fulfilled we have experience we have knowledge -----------we’re single solvent lusty and virile"

Exactly same goes for us, which is why its frustrating being single, noone to share all that experince and lustiness with!

And I dont believe ye have none of the concerns we have, like all your couple friends being busy at the weekend, etc, the only difference is ye dont have a physical limitation on producing sperm, but I know guys, although can have babies much later, dont want to be an old man when their kids are young, so pressure is on ye too and that is a physical limitation. In my experinc mens bums are as likely to drop as quickly and even less attractively than womens, ughhh, 40 year old male saggy bum is horrible!

why thank you goldenslamander!! I didnt put any particular artists in because I think that might alienate the non arty guys, and as I said in profile he doenst have to be into art, also it might sound a bit pretentious!! I added hicks at a later date, so maybe will relocate it to early text body, but really I dont htisnk that will have a huge impact on overall profile, eg " I loved her profile but she mentioned Bill Hicks (who I'm a big fan of) at the end, and not earlier where she discussed humor, so I didnt mail her" !!

I had to stop reading too, its SCAREY. Really off putting, do you actually condone beating children, just once so they never do it again?? Is this what Jesus Preached? I dont think so. Wow I would never go to your church, church is about love and acceptance you have more rules and judgments than a court of law. And you wont permit somone to have memories, by the sound of it, "if its dead burry it", why are you so insecure about someones past??

I am not having much look hearing from guys i'm interested in or think i have a lot in common with. I get lots of mails from guys who havent even bothered to fill out their profile or have no photo, or just say hey babe"! I know there are good guys here as I've seen their profiles and messaged a few but with very littl e success :((
So it must be my profile, I would appreciate some feedback, I've been honest and tried to keep it light and playful, maybe it doesnt read that way though.

So, what's 'wrong' with The Daily Mail and those who read it?
Posted: 10/22/2009 7:11:38 AM
Free as a bird, On Moir: using a young mans death of natural causes as a tool to promote her own small minded homophobic anti gay marrige agenda is pretty loathsome. She insinuated he died in some sleazy hedonistic circumstances, belittled his relationship with his husband and caused great upset to his partner and family in the process.

Why is it ligitimate to speculate about his death?? If he was married to a woman and one of her friends stayed over would we be speculating about his death in that case?? Its again an assumption that because he is gay he is somehow depraved and something sleazy had occured.
Freedom of speech is one thing, defamation is an entirely different thing. Check out the difference.

IrishBrennan, I seem to have hit a nerve. I am not insinuating anything, i just thought it was a little weird and made for uncomfortable reading for me. A grown man using a 16 year old girl and his possible compatibility, just to illustrate a point, is probably unwise.

But apart from that your argument is totally flawed, you say we are not born with taste in music, yet go on to describe how she got her taste from her father, ok not born with it, but near enough, she was probably litening to his music in the womb.

You also say it would be shallow to judge someone if they are into mainstream, yet you illustrate perfectly how good it feels to find someone with similar taste.

So you have actually proven my point.

And as for taking yourself seriously, if someone says something to offend or annoy me on these threads I usually just leave a short response, or ignore it. ie I dont take it too seriously, its some strangers opinion and I wont let it get to me.

Why is it that apparently any type of music is deemed as acceptable apart from metal
Posted: 10/21/2009 4:50:09 AM

As a metal fan it becomes extremely frustrating when reading the phrase "I am into all kinds of music...apart from heavy metal". It's crazy just how many people appear to share this sentiment.


people who state this on their profile have no clue about music, they are into generic mainstream and havent even bothered to develop their tast to a point where they can identify a few different genres or artists they like. If they like everything except metal it can be assumed that they like~: balie funk, cajun, dub, emo, free jazz, glam rock, honkytonk, irish trad, jazzfusion, korean pop, latin Jazz, medievil folk, neoclassical, organic house, punk, Quan Ho, rockabilly, sea shanty, trance, urban Jazzz, vaudelville, waltz, Xian rock, yodeling, and Zulu Music!
When quizzed further I think you will find they like POP! And do you really think you will be compaitble with this kind of person.

ok the fact that you spent most of this post talking about your sons girlfriend is just weird.

But apart from that, you completely contradicted yourself, you state shared experience cultural and otherwise, memories and peer influence etc. is the reason why a lot of people develop similar tastes in music, are these not also good reasons why people are compatible for a relationship.

Men dancing with other women
Posted: 10/20/2009 12:53:02 PM
is this, the 50's?

I'm thinking footloose!
And on another note, I've witnessed both my parents dancing at weddings and "do's" with other people, and it never caused a divorce. Dancing was never soley designed to be a precurrser to sexual activity, it is a way of expressing yourself and having fun.
Correction, i accused the girls of being moralistic, apologies I read the thread fully and noticed a lot of the male responses were similarly in the dark ages.

Men dancing with other women
Posted: 10/20/2009 8:49:08 AM
I'm a bit shocked by the moralistic responses from a lot of the girls here, have none of you ever been on a hen night where ye meet up with a load of stags, have a laugh, a bit of dancing and flirting, yet most (apart from a couple of the singles who hook up), head off alone to their rooms at the end of the night?? Have you never found yourself out in town on a girly night and at some point bumped hips and shook your arms in the air with some guy to some classic 80's anthem? I think this is the kind of dancing with girls he was talking about, and in my opinion that is called having fun. Seriously, bumping and grinding a la a Snoop Dog video?? where does this happen, the thought of it cracks me up!! If a litttle harmless boogie is going to betray the trust of a relationship well the relationship is on very shaky foundations. If you love and trust your partner and he you, neither will be shocked or appaled or hurt to find the other bopped when out with the lads, and he should be cool with her having the same fun when out with the girls.

thanks for kind words. But I wont be playing it dumb to keep the boys happy! And i agree about your sheep comments. of course I didnt mean guys who have the same taste as me exactly, that would be so boring, just someone who has an eclectic range of musical tastes, even if I'm not keen on some its better than hearing a compilation of recent chart hits or old faves such as GnR and the like.

why do men go to prostitutes and women dont??
Posted: 10/13/2009 3:21:52 PM
Yeah cause thats what us girls do all the time, flash men as we walk down the street.

If a woman is comfortable throwing herself at a man she probably wont have much problem getting sex, but most women are not comfortable with that, so we go without until some man we really fancy throws himself at us.

Women dont use prostitutes becasue we need more than physical sex and an orgasm. we want to feel desired and lusted after, you cant pay for that. Or maybe men do too and are deluded enough to think the women they pay for sex from do actually lust them, hmmm, now that I think about it, many men are actually deluded enough to believe that!!

Unfortunatly the negatives are what people see first.

how do you know that is what people see first? Maybe its insecurity that makes you think that, I am sure its your kindness and all those good qualities that peole notice first. Stop focusing on the negs, believe the positives I bet your weight falls off!!

I am happy with myself in fact I quite like me.
Ok I am 50, overweight, short, wear glasses AND I am single!


hmmm, you state you are happy then immediatly list your negatives, that is interesting and maybe telling. You know there is nothing wrong with disliking aspects of ourselves, it gives us something to work on to improve ourselves. I actually dont believe there is anyone in this world who is totally happy with themselves, i know i have plenty of room for improvement. But I dont believe its these qualities I dislike that are the reason for my singleness, imperfect people (ie the entire population of the world bar maybe the dali lama) meet others and have relationships all the time!!
Its EGO that says "there is nothing wrong with me, i dont need to change" humility is more attractive.
