I’m going out with Aussie tonight, I’m quite excited.
And I have a date to the hot springs water park Monday (it’s a 4 day weekend for many here) with a guy I’ve been chatting with a couple weeks and we really hit off. I hope in person the connection is the same, that would be wonderful. He is new to Korea, and I mentioned all the hot springs, and then he asked if this one was near me and would I like to go- sounds fun! But now I realize the holiday pudge makes wearing a bikini on a first date a little nerve racking 😂 I maybe didn’t think that through all the way.

I did it! I joined match last week and already have had a date with guy #1 and 2 dates (going on the third tonight) with guy #2.
I'll come back a bit later and tell you all about my exciting adventures this past weekend.
Holy cow...I never expected this!!

I took my Match profile down for a while, then put it back up last night and "liked" a couple of guys. I haven't messaged anyone and one guy who recently contacted me lives like 40 miles away (wasn't interested in him regardless). It makes me feel really judgy but then I don't want to lower my standards or preferences. Smoking and owning cats (I don't like cats) are deal breakers. As is someone who has the same name as XH! LOL Literally there were 4 guys in a row when I was swiping through.
Is there one site that's better/worse for middle age people? Just turned 49. I also find that a lot of people have kids in HS/college or beyond. My kids are 8 & 11.

I would say that Match is your best bet ... I'm 52 and I'm sent tonnes of what appear to be decent middle age profiles ... I'm just looking for someone younger these days The age range for kids is vast in this age group ... I was texting a 49 year old guy with a four year old and I have been on a date with a 55 year old who was a grandfather  |

So I started texting a new guy, Brad, last night  We connected through Match ... he's 39 The great thing about him, beside his age, is that he actually lives in my city  We just did a lot of serious flirting so I don't know a whole lot about him yet but he seems smart and is really nice ... and he's good looking too  I need a guy in town because both Justin and Jory are not  (And Andrew appears to be MIA ... not going to stress about it ... he'll reappear if/when he wants to ) |

My friends just made me sign up on Hinge. We’ll see how it goes. I’m loving the thread because it’s giving me confidence.

Well, I say go out with him and tell us all about it I say go! Should I give him one more chance? How old is he? Is he just someone to play with or maybe longterm? He's my age which is apparently what I'm not into I'm thinking that he's going to be a No  |

So far, Match has been a waste of money for me. Maybe I need to stay online more. I am finding tons of younger guys on Tinder since I paid for a month of Tinder Gold. There are a few who meet my standards- haha. Of course, they're just for fun- if I decide to go that route and add another...

I’ve been debating joining but it seems like a lot of money and from what I’ve seen from not paying, it’s mostly the same guys who are on all the other apps. |

Time to fess up! But first- I matched with a 31 yo on Tinder earlier tonight and chit chatted for a few minutes and he disappeared. Comes back later and apologizes for having to finish up work. Wanted me to meet him tonight for a hook-up. This was 11:30. Not taking into account I have no idea who this guy is- I'm sitting on the couch in my sweats, contacts out and glasses on, face washed- exhausted. Told him I couldn't leave because of my mom- said he would come to me and have the back of his SUV nice and cozy. Then comes all of the wonderful things he's going to do to me... I didn't do it, of course...
Now, back to fessing up. Have you ever done this? I'm not talking about meeting in a bar and having a one night stand or chatting with someone online then meeting etc. I mean just finding someone online quickly and just going at it- knowing absolutely nothing about them. Scares the crap out of me! Is this what the kids do? I know Tinder is considered the hook-up app- I just haven't matched with someone who took it so literally!

Right now it is more of a romance novel. I'm going to need pictures of EVERYTHING that happens to make it more like tv. Me too. LOL This is becoming my new guilty pleasure! I would never violate his privacy that way by posting a photo, but my friend with benefits looks like the cover of a romance novel 😂 All he does is go to the gym, and I must say- it pays off! Seriously, put him in pirate pants only and add some flowing locks instead of an Air Force haircut and he is Fabio 😂😂😂 Im not a totally shallow person, I swear. But if you are just sleeping with someone, a body that could be in an art museum is pretty darn nice. We went out a couple times...disaster. His favorite bars are terrible, his friends have the combined maturity of frat house. He thinks I’m a ridiculous liberal and his eyes glaze over if I discuss current events. A romance this is not. He is very attentive- if I mention something (like this raisin water drink here I like) he always always remembers. He has it in the fridge. He is a good guy, just not at all my kind of guy nor me his type. But for what it is- perfect! I had an eyebrow appt near his place so I asked if I could park there, he happened to be off. Stopped by for a half hour, nice. 😉 When my marriage was falling apart, I thought no one would ever desire me again- I mean, my own husband was cheating. So I think it’s healthy and an awful lot of fun to discover that is not true at all. I’m not looking for true love, I’m not even looking for a relationship really. I’m way to damaged by all this for that. But some amazing sex? Super down with that. |

I don't know if people do it, but I never have. I mean I’ve met for a drink with the express purpose of sleeping with them if they weren’t a psycho after chatting a while online first, then meeting, but not just gone to meet someone for that right off. I’d be too scared. I went on a date with a guy who wanted to drive me around the area when I first moved here as I was lamenting my car had broken down the next day and I knew nothing of the area. It ended up being possibly one of the best first dates ever, but I had him meet me at a coffee shop near my house, not at my house, and we talked a good 30 minutes before I got in the car, and I told my oldest what I was doing so if I disappeared someone knew. Getting in someone’s car just seemed way risky. I’m always cautious- someone knows where (approximately) I am. I have a friend in Seoul who is a good bit older than me and enjoys being my “I’m going home with X, want someone to know” contact as she has been married for ages 😂 |

Im not a totally shallow person, I swear. But if you are just sleeping with someone, a body that could be in an art museum is pretty darn nice I think you are my younger twin haha! A chiseled body and some sexy eyes gets me every time. I mean I’ve met for a drink with the express purpose of sleeping with them if they weren’t a psycho after chatting a while online first, then meeting, but not just gone to meet someone for that right off. I’d be too scared. Yes- this is me. In the last 4 years, I've done it 3 times. The first two I didn't care to see again. Now, the third- oh yes- still pretty regular going on 2 years. I would've never dreamed that I would be doing this at 60, but what fun! |
