It's Been Five Years......

posted August 25th, 2016 at 7:12 AM

..since the ex left, after 36 years of marriage. I've built a wonderful life since then, learned a lot, travel, hang out with amazing people playing music and creating, have been promoted at work and am looking forward to a good retirement. The one thing that would be really great to add into the mix is a companion in my life, a friend, a lover, someone to share meals with, travel with, share stories with. "Dating" hasn't really worked. I don't want to get married again, love to live on my own, travel on my own. Surely there are men out there in my age group who aren't partnered up, who aren't looking for a caregiver or housekeeper or mistress, but are looking for a friend, a lover, a fellow traveller, an independent partner to learn with. Men who tell the truth about their lives and their motives. Goddess, that would be so refreshing! Oh well, I'm not going to worry about it, I guess. Life is good just like it is. I just thought I'd fling this out to the Universe, let it know I'm ready.

hate to break it to ya, but its much diferent for me and women when it comes to middle age divorce. Most of the men I know have hooked up with 30 something women from the far east while the women have been left lonely.

There's a reason why middle-aged men, after having divorced the local women that they made the mistake of marrying, gravitate towards 30-something Asians.

Wishing you best luck

altho the Universe hasn't heard my similar requests for many years. By your info given, you are probably in your 60's like me. I've found that most men in their 60's are looking for women younger than that. The ones in their 70's are looking for "a nurse or a purse" as the saying goes.

I'm probably your kids age, and I feel the exact same way. Never been married, enjoy living alone, but would love some company. Someone to chill with, to enjoy the city with. A lil romance would be nice!
