Trigger Mike Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 A friend of mine lost his wife due to covid. She's been gone just over a year. She was one that stayed home a lot before the virus, but especially so during it. She didn't get her hair done for a year, went to get it done for the new year and got sick. My friend is 72. Another friend lost her husband to old age. She is 84. She is lonely. She was courting a third friend but failed. She started chasing my recently widowed friend. She made a stew and other food for him. A few days later she asked him how he liked it. He is nervous around her and is not interested, but doesn't want to hurt her. He replied, "my mom was a good cook and she was fluffy. My wife was a good cook and she was fluffy. My sister is a good cook and she is fluffy. You have a good figure. You are not fluffy".

Rip Snorter Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Other side of the coin, Old Guys looking for "A Nurse with a Purse." Thank heaven I still have my wife of near 40 years. Neither of us has ever been able to "train" the other down all the decades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddog McCoy SASS #5672 Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 I have been divorced almost 4 years, we split up about 7 years ago. I will be 60 next month and I have been looking and not finding a lady to date. So far, it has been a strange, scary, expensive ride and I am still alone. The last one lasted about 2 years and although it she was starting to warm up to the idea of something long term, she went and died on me a year ago today. (She was 54 years old) I have not been in the the mood to look very much since then. When I have looked, it has been slim pickings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My experience is that the good ones are taken, the divorcées have unreasonable expectations, the widows have emotional baggage. Those who got over all that want a meal ticket.

Pat Riot Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 My wife and I have been married nearly 42 years. If I were single now I am pretty sure there aren’t any women out there that would put up with me, or me with them. I have determined that women that are manipulative when they’re young are deviously manipulative when they are older. Women that are devious when younger are even more devious when older. Experience has taught them to hone and hide their skills. The bad ones are cunning. Beware! For anyone that read the above and gets their panties in a bunch just know this. The above is a public service and some of us are on to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Creek,5759 Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 I know a few men who went to a foreign country to get a wife. Said that American women are to manipulative. They seem to be happy. I told them why get Married. There is no upkeep on a rental. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dantankerous Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 I know more than a few guys in their 60s who are either divorced or never married. NONE of them have any interest in meeting a woman to date, marry, whatever. ALL of them say they have worked too hard for what they have. Starting over would kill them. NONE of them are willing to take that chance. They all say lonely is better than broke. ALL of them presume they'd be taken to the cleaners. I've no idea what fluffy is unless you're describing some cats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I met a guy who travels to NV once a year for an all-nighter. Buys a bottle, rents two ladies who tell him what a great guy he is, then he goes back home until the next time.

Finagler 6853 Life Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Wife and I have been together 43 years. Now that the kids are gone, we get along better. Retirement is gleaming in the distance. She doesn't want or need another man. I don't want to put up with someone else's family baggage and I wouldn't ask anyone to put up with mine and there is a TON. If there ever was to be another woman, she better be rich because I'm not going to do a durn thing but clip coupons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
