Scubadiva: I get mail from guys in that age group, even though I am not interested in them. In fact, I tell them to look for something closer to their own age, but you know how it is.. no fool like an old fool
... and before s'one calls me an old fool.. I'd never date someone 8+ years my junior.
A whole 8 years?!! WOW! I bet you would look upon a man 8 years younger than you as being old enough to be his mother...
What i have seen is quite a few men have over the last few years been going over to Thailand to find & woman whos going to be in there eyes a mate & yes in the bedroom ,
tho what i saw was they were not interested in haveing a partnership it was going to be the man was in control. & i know a few who have left , so there are some men around tho do go over for other reasons as well.
i met a lot of Thai people & they are very nice & accepting , they, like any women need to be treated as people who deserve better than what iv seen take place, now that does not say all men are like that.
If you look in your local paper what do you find many are younger & not so many baby boomers may be they dont come on dateing sites or post in the papers .
Desertguy49: I fall in the required age range, and physically still in good shape, but I'm just not looking to settle down into a domestic lifestyle, been there and done that, and it never seems to last...
Don't you just love a positive thinker???!!!
Personally, I prefer men slightly younger than me. I find that my age or older, they generally have poor physical condition, face sags, bum sags (looking from a distance ).
I think a lot of men really let themselves go once they hit........30
(I'm in a stirring mood tonight. Can't you tell? )

moonkitten: I`ve been on this site, on & mostly off, because there are no men in the age group between 55-70, that are healthy & fit.-Especially from Michigan. I think this site has a lot to offer, though it isn`t advertized enough, & it`s free, with all kinds of thing to post, etc. I`m now in the last quarter of my life wanting to meet someone that I can relate to.I have met a lot of men on other sites, but they always turn out to be too undecent or don`t ever know what they want or they are game players. Where are the good guys? Is it just me, or are there more women asking the same thing??
Yes moon they are on here, but most are looking for a chic 20 years younger!!! Think you will have to sift through the players and ones that think they are "Gods Gift". There are some genuine ones i think though they are a little scarse....Good Luck mate...

Noo, theres loads of them here, you're just looking in the wrong place, try the 40 - 50 bracket
Below is one of her more recent threads. I don't know if that's still ongoing but it looks like she found what she was looking for.
WELL- After posting a few ,but ordinary ideas & views....I emailed a Hispanic/Latino man (58), that emailed me first. After I got to know him...my usual insecureities kicked in..could have sabotached what keeps me from getting wht I want in the right man. But HE wouldn`t give up. I even said he`d have to consider my age (77)..& he didn`t care about that -AT ALL!! Well, we`ve been together since January, & everything is more than good. He is exactly what I want in a man... sincere, loving ,kind, mature & generous. I could say more, but you don``t need to know everthing!!! So-for those who doubted & made me feel like I was a skid mark on a road, & a little nuts, for wanting a younger guy...YOU were wrong!!!!. And for those that are like me...hang in there. moonkitten

What was "B A"'s famous quote from the old "A Team" TV show... "I pity da fool..." Seems rather appropriate to looking for 'chics' 20 0r more years younger...
onecountryboy: Not Me. I'm one of those old men who loves to work out BUT I still have 58 year old knees and a 58 year old back. If I'm hanging around a 20 something woman My pet name for her would be Doctor or nurse or "help me up please".

Conorco: There's not a lot of 80 year olds here old boy.
Your sense of humour is sooo warped, and not at all funny. Go take a good look at why you are still alone. You are very acidic in your threads which i do not like, you have given a good friend of mine a hard time on many occasions, get a grip man!!!
I'm here, but I'm really not looking for someone that is 60. I prefer someone my age or a little younger and all I get is women over 60. There's a double standard here. If I want someone younger, I'm a dirty old man, but women my age are looking for someone younger, so what about them????

There are plenty here, you just need to keep looking. Men in their 50's etc, can often have a more relaxed outlook on life and this can be very appealing to woman. Don't get caught up on age, if the person is some years younger than you, give them the benefit of the doubt initially, don't rule them out straight away.
Having said that, I'm fed up being contacted by 20-something's, ........what are they thinking????? (don't answer that)

Why do you put yourself through the trauma of reading my posts when you find them so distasteful? i'm alone because thats the way i like it, whats your excuse? If my humour isn't to your taste just ignore me, i'd prefer that than to listen to your whinging.
What good friend have i given a hard time to and how? Back up what you said or don't bother getting back, you're making a nuisance of yourself, do you have a history of stalking people who aren't the way you think they should be?
yes we love being alone , there's no one to nag us ,or go on about ,did you put the lid on the tooth-paste , you have put the toilet roll in wrong again ,dear
