Lonely

Wait till you find out a 58 year old man non-hiv positive, non hep c with no ED problems, no clingy family, with independent means is a very VERY hot commodity on the dating market.

Been there and believe me it will work itself out.

I agree.

I' m surprised that you haven't been visited by the 'casserole brigade' with your credentials.

Buy some new clothes, get a new look and get out there where single ladies are ( or divorced) : church, clubs, hobby groups, local single trip clubs , volunteer, etc etc.

Make sure your hygiene is impeccable.

What have you done to meet nice ladies up until now?

There's a pretty big assumption in that answer.

Thats what I thought when my friend Jeremy told me I would I was actually hot stuff on the dating market, particularly if I dated age appropriate women.

I take care of myself, I was a single dad, I had retired at 55 from a good career, my children have all done well and I met incredibly accomplished women and dated seriously three of them and in two years ended up with the one I've been with for ten years now.

A man at 55 who is neat, not in debt, with successful independent children, an ability to support polite conversation, of independent means is a hot item on the dating market.

Sorry. I misread your post.

Its all good! Life is good!

What about 65?

My mother passed early last year, and my 85 year old dad got snowed in with casseroles and offers of house cleaning and laundry. He had to stop going to the senior center because he was drawing too much attention.

He's got a 'girlfriend' right now.
