That’s a good question. I have been popping in and out of this site for about 9 years.
Met some really nice people, friends still, I am still in touch with quite a few male and female. All genuinely nice people. In fact I flew to Australia last year to meet a few. I Met a man here, had 6 year relationship with him until he drifted off with a much younger recently widowed woman who lives just around the corner from him. Too much of a. Temptation I suppose, ( she is hard up and needed a meal ticket. long story ) since coming back to this site I see so many men who appear to live near my location and view my profile often but don’t bother to write. I would have thought that men of my generation would understand that, For me and women of my age, men have usually made the first contact. How do I get rid of these old fashioned thoughts ideas and make the first move. I have no idea what to say to a stranger, I have no opening lines! I have written a comprehensive profile maybe that is of putting.
Things have changed so much in such a short time.
Well I am giving this one last shot. I know there are plenty of scammers on here they are easy to spot. There are lots of genuine people too. I truly believe.
I’ve travelled solo many times. Just got back from visiting friends in Australia. Had a wonderful time. Last year I did 5 weeks traveling around Europe with my dog. Just driving booking hotels along the way when not staying with friends. This July I am off again to UK through France where I will again stay by booking hotels as I travel.
I found by doing that , stopping and exploring small towns and villages you see so much of life.
It’s not as risky as going to popular tourist places. I avoid those.
There would be no surprises when meeting me.. I do exactly what it says on the tin. The only thing people can't see on my profile( apart from the obvious) is my height, which is 5'11 & I doubt I'll be growing any more
