I've been single for about a year and thought maybe I'd stick my toe back into the dating pool to see what's out there.
Despite what the movies might have you believe, oddly enough there aren't a plethora of attractive single dads at the school just gagging for it, although there are plenty of yummy mummies, it being a bit of a 'posh' area. They probably wouldn't appreciate me trying to nab their meal ticket, I mean husband, and his SUV. I don't have the requisite blond highlights, designer sunnies and spray on tan so I probably wouldn't stand much of a chance anyway.
A 59 year old who describes himself as 'cuddly' and has bigger pics of his dogs than of himself.
A 62 year old who is looking for women aged 18 to 50.
A guy who describes himself as a pirate (whatever THAT means)
Oh - and a guy who describes himself as 'not vanilla' and has an extremely explicit description of what he considered 'intimacy' that included a lot of tongue action. He is also partial to a bit of 'E' and prefers that to alcohol.
I have no idea where all the normal men in their late thirties to late forties are! Probably at home with their wives and families.
It's gone from a wasteland to a swamp. Considering the quality of men out there, I find it really funny that MEN are the ones who supposedly don't want to commit.
Anyway it's been a bit of a dating wasteland, so I thought I'd give online dating another try. The response has underwhelmed me to say the least.
Bear in mind I'm 38, and I've been on there a week. So far some of my winners include:
A 59 year old who describes himself as 'cuddly' and has bigger pics of his dogs than of himself.
A 62 year old who is looking for women aged 18 to 50.
A guy who describes himself as a pirate (whatever THAT means)

And several who couldn't spring for the membership fee so they have a note on their profile asking women to message them first as only paying members can make the first move. Yep. A 40 year old man who can't or won't pay a $30 membership fee is soooooo attractive.
So many quality men, how is a girl to choose from all these hot prospects?
I actually haven't been contacted by many in my age range at all. I suspect they are chasing up the 25 year olds. Who are probably blogging and sniggering about this ancient old dude of 40 who has been emailing them.

I just have to laugh at the absurdity of it all.
