Miami K... I was also wondering the same thing... I live in Hollywood...but work in Coral Gables...
So far I haven't attended any parties... but if you want, maybe we can work together on hosting something in Miami...
I think if done right, it could attract a TON of people!!!
Good luck...let me know if you need help...

Everyone Wants a Cougar
Posted:
9/9/2009 10:10:57 AM
I AM a cougar... and proud of it..
When I divorced my children's dad... I was 33... the first man that asked me out was 10 years younger...and his b-day was the same as mine... We dated for over a year... but he moved to another state...
I was 'single' for a long time... but I found myself being surrounded by younger men ALL the time...NEVER anyone older than me...
I married someone a LOT younger... He didn't want any kids... still doesn't...he's always dated older women... That lasted 4+ years... and the reason I divorced him was that after we got married...he turned into an OLD MAN... He never wanted to do anything... was very comfortable just staying home watching TV...and THAT is NOT me!!!!
Other things went down hill also... he just didn't want sex as often as I needed it... so all in all... we decided to end it...
Now, I'm TRYING really hard to find a man around my age or so... but funny thing is...THOSE guys just want ARM CANDY... very young thangs... and have the maturity level of a fly...
So, I'm sticking to the young ones... they are MUCH MORE FUN...which is all I want for now at least!!!!

The classic..........can I pop round yours with a bottle of wine?
Posted:
9/5/2009 12:57:28 PM
You know...I'm glad you brought this up... and I'm gonna answer even if this is ask a GUY...
I HAS happened to me... not only once... and NOT only here on POF...
It seems that the first couple of questions when you meet a guy these days are:
1.- Who do you live with? And if you say by yourself...
2.- Why don't we go to your house/Can I come over one of these days?/Why don't you invite me for dinner? etc. etc. etc...
What is it with SOME men nowadays? I don't want you guys to spend your life savings taking me out... a stroll on the beach would be AWESOME... I don't drink so that's also out of the question...but COME TO MY HOUSE so I can COOK YOU DINNER?
And don't you guys come here and tell this lady or myself that if we DO invite you to our house you ABSOLUTELY WILL NOT TRY SOMETHING!!!!
I am old enough to know better...but young enough to want to experience being with a GENTLEMAN again...soon!!!

What is shallow?
Posted:
8/28/2009 8:02:27 AM
IMHO... we are ALL SHALLOW deep down inside...
But if the attraction to the other person is not there... there can be no relationship... at least not a relationship of the heart...
I would NEVER go meet someone I haven't already at least seen a picture of... and even then... the ONE person I met from here...after almost 2 months of corresponding... did NOT tell the whole truth in their profile...and it was a big turnoff!!!
Yes, call me shallow... at least I'm honest...

Why are there double standards concerning age differences?
Posted:
8/19/2009 10:16:24 AM
There's only one reason either gender dates someone significantly younger than themselves, so whether cougar or dirty old man they deserve ridicule.
Now, WHY would ANYONE deserve to be ridiculed for wanting to DATE someone? WHO CARES about AGE?!??! Have you EVER heard that age is just a number?
Let me tell you...since I got divorced (the first time, at 33) I have ONLY dated YOUNGER MEN... the first one was 10 years YOUNGER than me... HE did ALL the pursuing... and I FINALLY had to give in to those beautiful eyes, muscles, flowers and home cooked dinners!!!
Now, after a second divorce from someone also younger than me, but who acted like an old man, I am STILL dating younger guys... the most recent is only 39...
There is NOTHING wrong with it... age is what you make of it...you could be 20 and act old... or 45 and be FULL OF LIFE!!!
It was also my understanding that the double standard was the other way around...
But I really don't worry to much about it!!!!
Happy fishing!!!

A miracle of sorts... at least for me!
Posted:
8/13/2009 11:47:07 AM
This is more of a testimonial, but I would like your input (guys!) Please?
I met a wonderful guy, but not from POF... I, as I'm sure a lot of people here, belong to another dating site...and that's where we 'met'... BUT POF is THE place for asking questions...so here's the story...
After a few e-mails back and forth, we decided to meet... Unfortunately, it was at a night club where a friend of mine was celebrating a b-day, and for some weird reason we never saw each other that night... He assures me he was there...but we didn't see each other...
Anyway, forward to last Saturday... I went to the same club again (owner is a friend!) and lo and behold... our eyes meet from across the room... He has his friend ask me to dance... I did... and then he comes over and asks himself... We danced for 3 songs in a row... and then he says: "I think you and I were supposed to meet here before... but we never did"...
I knew it was him when I saw him that night, but he was just being cautious... We had a good laugh... I was not offended that we hadn't met ...there were a LOT of people at that party before... and I actually didn't stay very long...I was just glad we had finally had the chance.. We danced ALL NIGHT!!!
At about 4 am, we decided to leave (they were closing!) he wanted to know when he would see me again... and HE SAID "Why don't we come here to dance again next Friday?" I said yes, of course...
He texted a couple of times during the week, very sweet, short messages wishing me a good day, etc.
Yesterday, I got a hold of a few of tickets to a baseball game...and texted him to see if he wanted to go... He said sure!!!
We had a BLAST at the game... and the thing that I find most adorable is that his friend, which had asked me to dance, said to me: "So, are we all going dancing again on Friday?"... Telling his friends about HIS plans with me must mean something, right?
This man is gorgeous, sweet, he's a poet (published!) an artist, and has NOT tried anything other than a soft kiss goodnight after the game... and a text a few minutes later saying thanks for a great night!
This is EXACTLY the guy I've been searching for... but for some reason, I can NOT let myself get carried away... I don't even want to think about him... I don't want this to NOT be true...
Have I actually found a gem? Or is just my imagination?
Thanks for the responses in advance!!!

Laying it all down first - Which is better
Posted:
8/7/2009 10:12:57 AM
If a guy I meet says: "I'm honest, never cheated, love you for who you are, and will support you once I get to know you better" I would KNOW FOR A FACT he was a LIAR and would NOT give him the time of day... CUTE or NOT!!!!
Now, I have to say...as shallow as it may sound... there has to be an attraction to begin with... I WILL of course talk to someone even if I'm not attracted physically to them... but in order to have a relationship... the attraction HAS to be there... at least for me...
I would go with the CUTE guy...and then TEACH HIM what I like!!!! How's that?

Inviting your date to your home
Posted:
8/6/2009 11:49:58 AM
I've had MANY men ask me who I live with...and after replying that I live alone... INVITE THEMSELVES over to my house... I ABSOLUTELY DETEST THAT... needless to say, the e-mailing stopped as soon as I heard those words...
Why would ANYONE, men or women, INVITE THEMSELVES over to someone's house?
I invite ONLY FRIENDS to my house... NOT even acquaintances... and much less people I meet online...
This one particular guy, Italian, business owner according to his profile, asked to come over to my house on our FIRST e-mail!!! When I confronted him about it, he said it was merely a 'suggestion'...he thought it would be nice for us to take a walk on the beach...
What I hate is the fact that they make NO effort in ASKING A GIRL OUT on a date...It doesn't mean you have to spend money (or a lot of!) but come on... has this 'tradition' disappeared since the online dating thing came about?

What are you looking for in a picture?
Posted:
7/18/2009 4:36:42 PM
Glad I found this thread...
I was wondering what the ladies think of a guy who is TOO GOOD LOOKING?
I was reading this guy's profile a couple of days ago, when lo and behold... I get a message from him saying how much he likes my profile and pix... JUST as I was about to do the same to him!!! What a coincidence, right?
Well, let me tell you... I am a bit apprehensive about this guy... I HAD to ask whether that was him in the pics or not... he is TOO GORGEOUS... Model like... and like they say...if it's too good to be true...it probably is...
Well, guess what? After I asked him if it was truly him, in a very nice way I might add, he STOPPED responding to me...
I also reported another 'fish' that had pictures of RALPH MACCHIO as his own!!! Did anybody see him? I don't want to post the name he used...'cause he has been 'banned' since...
What is it with guys and these pix? I'm totally confused!!! Because you know da** well WE are eventually gonna find out wether it's YOU or not!!!

Question for the women, part 2
Posted:
7/18/2009 4:26:07 PM
I had to delete a very good picture of myself because the dress I was wearing was a little 'revealing' and all I would get was 'I love your bo0bies' mail!!!
Now, I at least got one gentleman saying he likes my sense of humor from the exchange of mail we've been having!!! Imagine that... a compliment about my personality and not my breastonality!!!!!
I find THAT fascinating, don't you?

Messages to intense….to lead to a actual date…
Posted:

I don't get it... the guy has NO PIC and PROFILE IS HIDDEN...
Why would you communicate with someone like that?
I think this guy is a perv looking for something you might not want to give after all...
JMHO!!!!

I am so happy to have found this thread...
AFTER I made a complete fool of myself on the "Ask a guy" forum!!!!
Anyway, it's nice to know there are still some gentlemen here (and ladies!) that actually DO respond to a first contact e-mail!!!
I have tried to be nice and diplomatic to all the e-mails I've received since I joined (except I had to remove a picture that got me a couple of foolish e-mails to which I didn't respond!) with a simple "thanks for taking the time to read my profile, but I don't think we'd be a good match"...
Is that TOO MUCH to ask for in return?
Thanks for posting this!!!

Are Some Women Destined to Never Be in a Long Term Relationship?
Posted:
7/14/2009 8:43:38 AM
rw57....here's my take on this...
A gf of mine told me a long time ago, right after I got divorced for the first time...that I was not the 'marrying' kind...that I was born to be the 'lover'...but never the 'wife'...
After being divorced for a looooooooong time, 2 years ago I thought I was in love and decided to accept his proposal... it lasted EXACTLY 2 years to the date...
I guess maybe I learned something somewhere along the line all these years...'cause now I know I AM NOT the marrying kind...
I've had long term relationships, 2 or 3 years...tops... after that... it takes a very special kind of man to keep my interests going...
Hopefully, I'll meet just ONE more before I die... for now...I'm as happy as a clam being by myself, in my beach apt. and with my GREAT job that I LOVE and ENJOY...
Yes, it's nice to 'date'...but let's each keep our own place... if you can handle that... we've got it made!!!

The heat is on!
Posted:
7/14/2009 8:31:25 AM
Wow...november... I had the SAME thing happen to me last week... I thought I was being honest telling the guy I was writing to here, that I was also corresponding with others... and one in particular... so we could still 'chat' if he wanted to... but I wanted him to be aware of what was going on...
Boy did he fly off the handle...
Then this other guy just yesterday... he just wanted to talk on the phone and not on here...so I finally gave in and called him... and he WOULD NOT accept the fact that I'm going on vacation tomorrow and won't be logged in here for 2 weeks...and NOT answering my phone either... He says to me: "Well, maybe when you come back I won't be available anymore"...
Why can't people take the TRUTH? It's MUCH MORE appealing, at least to ME, than to have someone just NOT WRITE BACK anymore...as it's also happened here...
What about when you make first contact with someone, send him a 'gift' and compliment them on something about their profile, the pictures or whatever, and they NEVER bother to reply NOT even to say THANKS, but NO THANKS!!!!
So, Steven baby... yes, get ready for a BUMPY ride!!!!

Posted:

I'm sorry for the way I'm about to respond to you...but I make it a point to tell it like it is...no sugar coating it...
You 'texted' each other...and saw each other TWICE a month... and you call THAT a relationship?
I just read your age in your profile...and didn't go any further... At first I thought you might have been a young and naive girl...but WOMAN....YOU ARE 40 YEARS OLD!!!
WHEN are you gonna learn your lesson?
DUMP him, DO NOT text him back...and go on fishing...Good luck!!!!

I need a MAN's HONEST opinion...Ladies... You can tell it to me straight!! LOL!
Posted:
7/4/2009 4:42:32 PM
Hi, johninsd... thanks for your reply also... I am not dissapointed in the fact that he dissapeared...but I am dissapointed that we were talking here and on the phone for over a week....and I didn't catch anything wrong with him before then... the fact that I decided a first meeting in a club was OK... was because we were there with a bunch of people...and I felt safer that way... already had a built in excuse if I didn't like him...and so did he... that's all... Plus, I thought... if we BOTH do like each other... and wanted to talk without all the noise... we could always go and sit outside the restaurant and do just that... (it's not a So. Beach club... this was more of a restaurant/martini bar type of place...)
Ok... so I took down what you suggested...I changed it up quite a bit... let me see about 'whittling it down' a little...
Have a great weekend!!!

Hi... lilcha0s2 ... thanks for your reply.. Well, let me explain a bit more about that guy... We had been flirting over here and on the phone... yes, I admit it...that is something I ENJOY...but it was very subtle... nothing nasty... just fun stuff...nothing sexual...but double entendres, yes... I don't think he was KIDDING when he said to bring the other girl over...because as soon as I responded No way...he dissappeared... I know he was working until late that night...he's cop...and when he called me I could hear the dispatcher in his car... there is absolutely nothing I did... it was all him... I know that... I do not look for excuses for certain types... Unfortunately, it comes with the territory... Most cops I know in person are into playing like that... (I know the cops because in my job I need to hire police escorts something for different events) The have women all over the place...and would think nothing of doing that and much more... so I knew as soon as he mentioned it that it would be the end of our conversations...but that's fine.. It's his loss...not mine...
GMan85615...thanks for your reply also...but those are the things I like and don't like... there's nothing I can do... I do not want people that are into stuff I don't like to contact me...
erolyn... You hit the nail on the head, girl...thanks for your honest reply... I think exactly the same... but I'm in no hurry... so...I'll be on here till I meet my little

WOW...I guess you DO learn something new every day... and here I am being VERY NAIVE thinking that 'activities partner' meant someone to go to the movies with, or go kayaking, or to the gym, or rock climbing... HOW STUPID do I feel!!?!!??!?!
OK, so time to change that also...and SPECIFY what I'm looking for even MORE!!!!
Thanks, guys!!!!
Going back to look for more

All I can see is that you need more pictures of yourself...and yes, decide whether it's a ltr or something else you're looking for...
Good luck!!!

I wanted to respond on your profile as to not 'highjack' this thread...but it wouldn't let me 'cause I'm TOO OLD for you!!!
Si, entiendo que a los gringos pueden ser encantadores... But I had a HUGE crush on my gringo neighbor about 40 years ago and he broke my heart...he moved away... I think that's why I stick to hispanics... at least I KNOW they're mostly dogs!!!!
So, I've removed my yellow dress pic... let's see how this one fares...
Have a safe and fun 4th of July, everyone!!!

I think I have to agree with eastcostfella here...
Why NOT approach girls first? I see you're very young...what kind of woman are you looking for?
Just be a bit more assertive...and good luck...you're handsome, young and seem to have the right frame of mind...

Ok, ok, ok... since I HAD to check out YOUR profile 'cause I liked your pic... and I LIKED what you wrote...I'm DEF. gonna take new pics this weekend...
Could it also be that I MOSTLY look for Hispanic men? Yes, I know... I HAVE to break out of that pattern...
Thanks for your response pratch!!!
I KNOW no one will believe me...but this is the FIRST and ONLY picture I have of me posing that way... Never thought it would create such a fuss!!!

Thanks for your reply also siderite and abitmore!!!
siderite...you're VERY generous in your reply...but if a guy GIVES me his number after talking on here for a few days, and I feel comfortable with our conversations, I don't see anything wrong with calling or giving them MY #... After all, I KNOW what I want... and I believe A WEBSITE OR A PIECE OF PAPER can hold ANYTHING you put into it... but an actual LIVE CONVERSATION, you know...the OLD FASHIONED WAY... is ALWAYS better!!!
Ok... of course I'm NOT 103... but why would the ACTUAL NUMBER make a difference... obviously people can tell I'm NOT 20...but I'm NOT 60 either...
Some guys put me right between 35 and 45... WHICH IS JUST PERFECT!!!
I feel POF should be a bit more lenient towards asking a woman her age... Would a guy you just meet ask you that straight off the bat? I think not, ladies...
Anyway...I'll will fess up right here... I'm 45...there... I've said it... Now what do you think of that?

Hanneke... yes, I get what you're saying...but I've also found that if I were to post ONLY pics where I'm covered (like the ones in the mountains) I would NOT get ANY responses!!!
Have you SEEN some of the ladies' profiles on here? Bikinis, beds, swimming pools, etc...
Well, I'm gonna take your advice and try to take new pix this weekend... and post those... let's see how it goes next week...

I joined this site just last week...have had tons of responses... and I've contacted a couple of guys...but I've had no GOOD luck...
MOST of the men are just looking for a quick 'hook-up'... It doesn't matter what their profile says... or what they tell you in the messages... THAT is all they're after...I'm NOT interested in that... I am also NOT looking for anything too serious right now...mostly dating and sharing activities...but since when did that started to mean JUST HAVING SEX!??!?
I'm honest in how I described myself... and my pictures are fairly new... about 2 months old... UNLIKE some people that post pix from 6 and 7 years ago...
Just last night I was supposed to meet this GREAT guy... or so I thought... we've been talking here and over the phone for a week... seemed like the right time... turns out when I told him I was at a club with my gf's (he was working till midnight!) he asked me to bring one of them with me for a 3some!!!! WE HAD NEVER discussed s-e-x in our conversations... we FLIRTED yes...but NEVER to that extent...when I said NO WAY...he never responded back... and I KNOW what that means...I'm NOT trying to find an excuse for him... like 'oh, maybe he was busy at work', or 'his phone might have died'... I have read some girls' 'FANTASIES' here...where they give the guys the benefit of the doubt... THIS ONE is a total JERK who still thinks women are just for playing and that's all...
So, please...let me have it... WHAT can/should/must I change about my profile? WHAT THE HECK am I posting there that is so badly misconstrued?
Laughing at myself and STILL fishing!!!
