[Thumpalumpacus]

Tres, I got in touch with this bloke on your behalf ...He's waiting for your phone call....

Your welcome.

Only niggle I have with that: "you're", not "your."

Ta Thump. I bloody hate that!

I've tried online dating twice.
I came out of it thinking I'd rather be single for the rest of my life.
I never met so many deadshit fuckheads in one place and apparently the guys are even worse.
I did realise one thing though.
I got nothing to offer for nobody.
I got a kid who is my whole world and anything leftover is me time.

Online dating may be the most despicable scheme ever devised. It preys on vulnerable people seeking for love. There's really nothing more to be said on the lowlives running these platforms.

LL, good for you... seriously.

Have you tried any single events? A quick google search shows that there are a shit load in your area. Didn't check for age appropriate. Cougar curious?

I meet women the old fashion way, being very attractive.

Here's a sonofabitch who knows the score. Be yourself, and let the Devil take the hindmost.

That'd be interesting.  I have an internet crush on some of the ladies here.  They're totally out of my league, though, and I'd likely just embarrass myself in the first 5 minutes.

Bullshit. You may well embarass yourself -- all us men do at one point or another, amirite? -- but out of your league? Not at all.

"Out of my league" is just something men tell themselves when they are intimidated by a very sexy lady; it doesn't objectively exist. Truth is, amazing looks don't typically land high on the priority lists of most emotionally mature women looking for a serious relationship. Things like sense of humor, passion and compassion, empathy, and value-sharing are perfectly sexy. Chiseled form not necessary. I mean...not that it hurts...[emoji39]

I met my wife online. I also had several disasters before that (about 4). I doubt I would ever have met a partner just wandering around.

I think being up front about the things that really matter to you in a relationship is helpful. It worked for me.

I'm a fan of chatting first for a while before meeting up, although I did tend to find people who lived some distance away.
