#DatingAfter60 #Practical_Dating_Advice_for_Older_Women #SixtyAndMe
To be honest, I don’t want to be a slave to another man. Don’t want to cook, clean and do laundry why he sits on the couch watching TV. I did that for 30 years and I like my new independent life. If I want I can have a sandwich or bowl of cereal for dinner. It’s so freeing.
Ok
I sure feel ya on that. My 30 plus yr. Marriage ended suddenly to me. 10 yrs of picking myself and rather some esteem...I am making my personal Do Over Style this next month. Going to start the Dating Fun this Spring or sooner!!! So ready and that's the best part. Excited!!!!
Good

You mean you dont want to choose the same kind of man as you did before and dont get in the same dynamics. Im 60 I never been the slave or anyone. The life partners I had always shared their parts on task.
I was recently visiting a friend in Florida who told me she had a wedding to go to on Saturday. As she sailed out the door, she said the bride is 102 and the groom is 96! Also stand in front of a mirror and stare into it, then crack a big smile. It will take years off your face and light it up. I pass men and women all the time who look like they just came from a funeral. Who wants to approach someone like that?
Senior Thrifter: Although men demand women to be young and pretty, and when one smiles, crows' kicks will certainly show.. I can easily chat with men, but that has never led to dating or courted. i think men need to take the initiative in order to feel they are pursuing what they want and ,as well as I as a woman need courtship,feeling seen and valued as a woman.
My hardships burden me so much ,it takes an emotionally and spiritually mature man who can see beyond my crisis until I resolve it.
You can’t smile 100% of the time and often older people feel tired both physically and emotionally. And their “resting” faces look haggard through no fault of their own. They’ve aged.
exactly lifes crappy yes but not that awful i agree live life find love no matter what age and its not embarassing go for it dont ever put age on love 😊
I was married for 33 yrs so im not interested in getting married again or living with another man but i don't mind dating or having a single male friend for company and companionship.
You're gorgeous.
I have heard from other women that I know, who feel the way that you do. That sounds like a nice adventure. 😊
I met my guy on Match. I went against convention and wrote him first which I had rarely done. We ended up going out a few times but he was in different place and we parted ways. IA year later I wrote him to say hi, how are you, we reconnected, fell in love and are now living together. Ladies... I had been single for pretty long time after my divorce and never thought I would meet someone let alone an amazing man with a huge heart full of love to give like him. I really really liked my independence but am willing to figure it all out with him. So, don't give up on love if that is your heart's desire.
Your message gives me hope! Thank you. I'd never had problem meeting men, but kept attracting the wrong ones. Now I'm focusing on feeling good about myself...for me and my loved ones. I am feeling more confident and feel that elevating my self-worth will put me in a better place to draw in people who are kind and compassionate.
So happy for you 🤗🤗
Such a lovely story, wish you both the best.
congrats sweetie met mine in 2019 been 3 yrs this yr we been together im 59 hes 67 never felt so happy relaxed an content 😊
I am happily married but I do have an advice for ladies who are single which is be kind, nice, charming and social and at the same time try to be classy and elegant. I am sure that someone who is available will be attracted to you...Don't ever give up, it's never too late... Just follow the laws of attraction: ask, believe and receive
Paris M It is NOT so easy. Older men will have MUCH younger women than them selves. 💃💃💃
That’s my experience.
I smile a lot by nature... and try to look the best I can!!
IT DOES NOT WORK!!

From a man's point of view...I have had to again learn to flirt, and I had to learn that in the beginning stages it is not personal, so I tend to flirt with women 50 and up....here is how I reconcile with myself if I get rejected...If I am attracted to you enough to put myself out there and flirt, I find you attractive. If I find you attractive, other men will also, so I always assume that you already have someone else in your life. So...why wouldn't you have someone else in your life. I get to practice flirting, have some fun, and eventually I will find someone that wants to talk. Margaret, this is great advice and I totally agree that you have to trust again.
I was a Receptionist and when a man walked into the business I was friendly because that is what my job was and I flirted, not all men wear wedding rings so it is hard to know if they are married. Still a man didn't ask me to get a cup of coffee and I am not aggressive. I feel that a man should make the move to ask. He should have confidence. A man that is shy and doesn't make a move to ask me out is not someone I want to be with. I like confident men and I was taught to let men be the aggressors. I know things are different but, I feel as a lady, men can do that for women. I want a man not a little boy.
Making a move today, especially in that environment, can get you a serious charge today, accurate or not. I would be much more cautious myself if I were in that environment even if I had attraction.
Just wait...someone will notice you one of these days by surprice....remember patience is a virtue...Hugs
@@cindybelsh2399 Possible but not as likely. Tough age we live in today.
Margaret, I have two very special men with whom I am just platonic friends with. They have so much to offer in way of conversation and experiences. I also have a heartthrob with whom I am off and on. I am 73 years young
GOOD FOR YOU WITH YOUR 2 SPECIAL MEN IN YOUR LIFE.
I’d just LOVE to have special friendships with men... I’d really enjoy just hanging out with a fun guy-doesn’t have to be romantic, just silly and fun.
Hello.. how are you doing
Grrr baby, have some fun. MFM if you nee more.
Oh wow! 😯That was really something! I was reading one of the Comments that said, “don’t give up on Love” at the EXACT second YOU said, “don’t give up on Love” as You held up the card, on Trusting! What an Epiphany! THANK YOU BOTH!❤️🥰💓
Maybe more like synchronicity.
I know on web sites, if I don't make the first move, I will often only hear from men who are unappealing looking to me. So, nothing venturedd, nothing gained! What's the worst than can happen? You don't have them anyway so I say go for it. And at least you learn from it. I love your videos!
I lost my husband 11 years ago, was 46 yr old. He was wonderful!
The couple times I’ve tried to have a relationship, it was so underwhelming. More work than any gratification. I enjoy mental stimulation, basic friendship, more than anything else. I don’t want to be someone’s mama or housekeeper or bank. No thanks! So… I gave up a few years ago. I’ve made it this far alone, I’ll be fine. Love the quiet. I never understood what a narcissist was, I do now.
02:13 - 03:20 Love this! This advice about women not being afraid to make the first move/underestimating how nervous guys can be is interesting!
I'm so nervous I can't sleep. I have a lunch date with someone 13 years older than me.
It never hurts to smile or chat! The current geopolitical climate, plus possible bad experiences can leave a guy cautious about approaching women. Men are human too! Once you hit 55, why waste time? If you smile and nothing happens, all it means is that you were nice to another human being.
Hai are you single
Atleast smiling indicates how beautiful your heart is 😏
I made connection with single man who lived across the street. He was 65 (I'm 70). He told me he had never dated, never been married. Turned out to be a total disaster because there were reason (won't go into detail) why he had never been on a date. Anyway we broke up, kind of awkward since he lives across the street but I tried. Doesn't mean because one failed attempt I won't try again.
Hi Friend! I'm William from Austin Texas... Kathleen can I ask you something if you don't mind? Do you still have intention settling down again if by chance you see a responsible adult Man again ?
Agree Smiling works well. I simply smiled at a man the other day he said hello and started chatting . Sometimes I start the chat , if a guy is standing near me waiting for coffee or like you said in the hardware store or supermarket. I’ve been asked out in these places simply by being friendly . Men will chat with you anywhere if you are approachable. I have had a few dates this way , they weren’t for me but I responded that’s the key . Cheers 😊💞💞
I AM HAPPY FOR YOU. YOU ARE A FRIENDLY PERSON AND YOU HAVE THE GOOD LOOKS WITH YOUR LONG HAIR.. ETC.
Hai are you single
Hello.. how are you doing
Hello
Good advice! My best friend is a male who is very personable and incredibly easy on the eyes. Yet, he once admitted that he loved it when women initiated meeting him! Also, I concur with reconnecting at high school reunions. I have been a widow for ten years; I lasted all of about fifteen minutes online dating. Virtually all of my dates over the last decade have been with my high school classmates of fifty years ago.
For me, I just go to meetups to meet and talk to people. I had to accept that I most likely will not be meeting a partner at this stage.
Hello Shelley, how are you, do you live in Los Angeles, California?
I LOVE TO MEET PEOPLE AS FRIENDS FIRST AND TALK TO THEM. ATFER THAT WE CAN DECIDE TO DATE ONE ANOTHER OR NOT..
@@barbarahammer9037 Relationships built on friendship are usually pretty amazing.
You won't probably, but it may be a blessing in disguise.
Thank you for sharing, my friend has used dating sites in the past. She is 61 and she has just given up. I'll be sharing this with her.
Hello.. how are you doing
I like it! Thanks for your down to earth advice
Yes, women should sometimes make the first move. At 75 I would certainly be really ready to be noticed by a woman and respond positively no matter her age. And yes a good flirt would be some great spice to add into the mix. Always remember we ain't dead yet. Still want love and attention in our old man lives. Cheers, and many blessings ladies.
Go for it Tim.....hugs ❤😂😢😅😮
I think it does not have to be either or. To be trusting is a two edged sword, scamming is a huge problem. The world now is a different world before internet took the world by a tsunami, a technology that is affordable by many. Our laws and policing force have not been able to keep up. Ie catfish, dating women /menfrom 3rd world countries or vastly different cultures with different values and other agendas. That is not how life used to be. And this is presenting with a lot of problems: some aged women crying in their cup of tea over some fake "dream military officer" that needed money (yours usually) b/c of some "situation" came up, these internet "entities" cleaned out these women's accounts just to feed these women's desire to be admire(d) or looked after. They got "looked after" alright, no kidding.
Talk is cheap, no it is very expensive for the victim.
Also, the economics have changed out there, meaning gap between have and have nots have increased, that plays in as well. Some are looking to be "saved".
Some are looking for a "nurse". Another topic.
Some have abused their health through life with bad habits, and now hoping somebody who lived responsibly will pick them up and save them. I have worked in health care and have seen how unhealthy living habits/addictions do to humans, people that should be out there living are cared for in assisted homes long before they should be.
Another financial factor, credit cards. Way too easy credit, so those not thinking through what credit really is, thinking it has been a "gift". These are the ones that have lived beyond their means, had their "fun", not taken the time and effort to be frugal and save for that rainy day (old age), it would be a jackpot for them to meet the lifelong frugal girl, or well off man, to be fair.
INternet is a like a candy store for many, no shame b/c of anonymity, so many "choices", and ease.
Internet has made it "easy" to meet people, but it is a playground for criminals/gigolos too that search out romance seeking older women/men, or lonely persons.
This sounds all doom and gloom, but I think the game is different when you have "ran your race" in life. I would say, approach dating with optimistic caution. You may meet a very nice person, but maybe not. So what to do?
Work on your thinking/attitude, don't put all your happiness eggs in one basket, have them spread out in various areas, ie: a pet, good friends, family contact, interests, hobbies, fitness, belief system of some sort, nurture good health, yoga, meditation, quest to learn new things, stay active. I am not anti man, just being aware/awake/alert.
Ok... I guess this turned into an essay. Oops.
Reflect thank you for your post. I believe Margaret should talk more about this subject. I have had male friends yes it happens to men too. That this has happened to. Few days ago I heard about a dear friend of mine being scammed by a gentleman caller he was a fly by night Romeo. Scamed her out of $10 US dollars.i thank you once again for your post.
@@verabozinovski2827 HI Vera,
Thanks for your reply. It is an interesting subject, kind of telling of human nature: need to be loved, and those using that need for immoral/criminal actions.
I think, at this time, the answer lies in learning to love oneself, respect oneself, honour oneself. If those ducks are in order, I think one would be more proofed against criminals. But I realize sometimes people are in vulnerable periods of their lives and more easy target. So online dating, or search for "love", is a minefield and if you are in a vulnerable time of your life, avoid getting into this dicey area, especially online. Scammers are not just individuals, they are many times internationally organized criminals, with big accounts (names/addresses of "babes), meaning the little nice lady/man is merely a number. If they can turn that "love key" on, that opens the door to the vault fast.
@@verabozinovski2827 10 USD?
Well said! There are loads out there just waiting to prey on a lonely woman...for money, visa, place to live, free intimacy you name it. Scammers think we all have lost our brain cells! Beware!
I Love to flirt!!
Yes, I often make the first move, just by feeling more comfortable to be spontaneous than a lot of people in general. Whoever has the easier time of it should go for it (first) I always think... I flirt with both men and women, it’s about loving life I think. I didn’t pick anyone up with flirting per se, but each exchange added years to my life im sure, as it’s just fun. Anyone that can flirt or respond to that (most can’t comfortably) socially, is already ready for more of life & the right person for them has to be closer....
It just gives confidence, it’s nothing to do with age in my opinion.
Go for it, sand enjoy every second!
Your great. Thanks for your advice.
Your eyes/makeup look especially pretty in this video.
Sherri Porter she certainly has pretty eyes! Those and her smile are her strong points.
Hey sherry
@Sherri Porter Hi beautiful, how are you doing??
Hello.. how are you doing
I've started conversations with loads of men, just asking questions about you-name-it: what's the best coffee here, which way to the picnic, is this a library with a reference section, etc. The possibilities are endless. They advise you, which they love to do, and you say "Okay! Thanks so much!" and walk away. Which allows them to chase you. You've broken the ice; now it's easier for them to come up and say something like "So, how come I haven't seen you here before?" or whatever they use to keep the conversation going.
Airports are great places to meet men. Galleries Lafayette in Paris! The men’s department in Bloomingdales, Nordstrom, etc.
Hello.. how are you doing
Great video. I needed the encouragement. I am preparing to get out more. I believe better days are ahead!!!!
Hello I am so sorry if this sounds weirds but you wrote such a nice and wonderful comment on here and I like your comment. I can tell you're a very positive person. If it's okay with you I'd love to be friends
Actually, I have met some interesting and Funny people at the Library...I love the Library...No phone...just wonderful books!!!
I LOVE THE LIBRARY MYSELF AND MEET NEW PEOPLE IN IT AND TALK TO THEM. IT'S A WONDERFUL PLACE TO MEET PEOPLE AND MAYBE YOU WILL END UP GETTING A DATE. WHO KNOWS..

Thank you Simone! Have a fabulous rest of your week!
Hello,I am Dr Randy Torok,how are you doing? I would love us to be good friends in honesty and in trust if you don’t mind, I am from Washington DC and I live in Washington USA and was born in Denmark and I will be glad to hear back from you
Thank you Margaret for this interesting video! And you look wonderful! As for what you said, I must confess it is difficult to do that.
I am 70. I had men during my life. But they were not a good match. Now i decided to stay alone. So, of course, I don't make the first move! Meanwhile, if somebody likes who I am, and is serious, maybe I could become friends with him, and who knows?....
Definitely! I've never been shy to smile and connect with people in general (this may be cultural: I'm Dutch, LOL). The pros and cons of this are that men will think you are interested in them. 😀 Like the coach you mentioned said: men can be shy or intimidated by women, and they don't want to be looked at as a predator, which will keep them from making the first move. My husband and I have been together for about 20 years now. We used to be in primary school together and reconnected when we were in our early forties. So... I'm not looking for dating advice, but I was curious about this video because I have a few single girlfriends who are dating. Your advice is pretty good. The things you mention are certainly things that I would do.
Love the conversation Margaret, yes why not make the first move but everything is possible. It is not something I would do, but who knows who you might meet.
Thank you for the video, great ideas.
Hello
Hello Rita
@Rita Goedecke Hello Rita, how are you doing?...I would love us to talk to get to know each other
Generally, men are more direct and blunt in their conversations and approach to others. It would feel perfectly normal to me if a lady made the first invitation for a social event. By the way, I have dated younger ladies and discovered that I prefer someone who is reasonably close to my age simply because we have more generational commonality.
Hello- I'm a young 62..63 next week:) Iam so happy you talked about flirting! Of course we can flirt and have fun...and please remember- no self put downs! We do not think your back in the 60"s or 70'S. In fact the opposite. Flirting is forward progressive thinking and a must in dating over 60! Also appreciated that you mention connecting-connection is very important and it's the opposite of shy. Thanks for being brave. Playfully yours, Jodi W.
Aww that's lovely, Hey!
Hi Jodi...do you mind if we talk about things and things lol 😊

I'm at a point in life where I'm just not interested in anyone interrupting my life. I eat when I want to, sleep when I want to, watch watch what I want to. And spend my money where I want to...I'm single for 18 years.

Not interested means not interested. It doesn't mean I wished to be trolled like a 🐟 by 🦈 in the water. My previous comment was previously well stated to anyone who can read. I'm not interested in anyone interrupting my life!!
P.S. I have lots of friends. I don't need to be picked up online. Thank you and have a great day. And no I'm not a nasty person. 😁

Yes I do! I am 60 and have been actively dating for three years mostly on-line. It can be exhausting. I have met some really interesting men and only a couple...shall we say, bad eggs. I haven't quite given up hope but golly...sure hope it happens before I am too pooped to pop!
I think it depends on the situation, however it’s not easy for me to strike a conversation, smiling is easy but starting a conversation is not
Watching from Bohol Philippines.
Yes, yes,yes!! The older I get the more fun I have. I have men letting me know they are interested in me. I have a girlfriend who says she can’t get a hello from a male. Much less a conversation. I’m happy, And it shows! And well I have less roads ahead of me. But life is just wonderful and I like to talk and get to know people. I find they are very interesting with their life journey also. And I thank the good lord for the abundance I have received in life. I’m just an average women. At least that is what I think, but I’m told I’m much more. Be positive, happy, smile and quit being afraid laugh at yourself if u goof up. Your just human. Just say hi what’s up, where you going where have u been. They usually chuckle. Good luck women! Their are so many male fish in the sea, you just have to catch one. Lol

You made me smile. Great post. Im ready to get back out there. Im looking forward to it. I want to have some fun!
Everything you feel approaching men, men feel approaching you. Remember this ladies when a guy tries to approach you. Politely decline, if you are not interested. Don't lie, don't give a fake number, just say no. Also don't look at your friends for approval. If the guy gets out of line, leave or call the cops... Also as a guy, if a women comes at me, it's the same deal. I'm either down, or will politely say no.
Hi. I'm new to this but noticed a couple of replies from men on here. I thought this was just for women to join. Not complaining, just curious as to if you speak as a member or as partner of a member. Either way it's good to get input from a male perspective.
@@ljohnson951 Neither. I'm not affiliated with either a partner or a member of a partner.

I am with you Margaret! I just don't know where to find them! They are so few...plus I went to a girls school!
older women has the highest praise very enjoyable and sweet love em stay ahead ladies
SO true that women need to make the first move. In a way, it's a relief as it's unlikely that a guy you're not interested in will become assertive - sparing you a 'no'! If you're interested, yes! Flirt! It's not chasing. You're just taking the initial initiative! I tend to be the initiator until 2 dates have passed. If he doesn't pick up the ball after that, he's not assertive enough for me or isn't 'into' me. Smile and be expressive! Be open; be out there; but be content in having a great time whether you meet someone or not!
Flirting can be packaged as simply showing a keen interest in the other person through smiles, eye contact and reflective listening. It needn't be come hither and prancing about like a dog in heat...lol.
Interested I liked her earrings are beautiful the color very elegant lady
Great ideas passing them on to my cousin

Hello,I am Dr Randy Torok,how are you doing? I would love us to be good friends in honesty and in trust if you don’t mind, I am from Washington DC and I live in Washington USA and was born in Denmark and I will be glad to hear back from you
It is perfectly acceptable for a woman to make the first move. Working in a dominate male environment, I am comfortable striking up a conversation. On-line dating has a way of restructuring the path of moving forward once you meet someone who is interested in me. And then there is the physical attraction, either lack of, which is a deal breaker, or both are mutually attracted. After agreeing to meet again, and this is where I am clueless... do most people reach out just to say hello? I reached out once, and now I wait for a positive response. It has been days since I last heard from him. So now what?
You are delightful!!
Absolutely!! Women make your move or someone else will.

Hello carol
Hello I am so sorry if this sounds weirds but you wrote such a nice and wonderful comment on here and I like your comment. I can tell you're a very positive person. If it's okay with you I'd love to be friends
Would you send someone a secret valentine that you really don't know yet but has flirted with you and given you good vibes??
What is your advice of sharing several eight hour days with someone that had sooo many things in common (he had to go home doesn’t like to drive in the dark) that started out with many hugs then the last day a very fiery kiss before leaving, then Called a few days later and said he didn’t have time for a relationship. Really pulled out the rug from me!
Honestly, my personal advice is to just let him go. That’s just my point of view. Good luck with your decision.
I love to flirt. Flirting is an art. Not to sound vain but I'm a natural flirt. I like to be playful and flirting is playful. I also think it puts others at ease and allows them to lighten up and enjoy life. Maybe I should create a RUclips Video on it. Would anyone out there be interested in something like that?
You are such a pretty woman. I love listening to you!!
Yes I think women should be encouraging towards men, because men want to say something but may feel reluctant
i do too
@Diana Evans Hello how are you doing today??
Hello.. how are you doing
@@roberthartley1863 very well thank you!! How are you?
I have the gift of gab I will talk with anyone not shy at all it's just a conversation
I agree with you there. I simply talk to people. The negative side of this is that you sometime come across younger men who ask for a date and that's really annoying.
You look lovely today
Yes, I'm dating in my 60's and I like when a woman makes the first move. And I don't date more then 10 years younger.
I am age 63 and I believe women need to approach men and initiate. Because women these days based on a rape culture society always act scared and alarmed or they treat us men as the old biased thinking of Oh wow that guy just tried to hit on me! This makes us men feel disgraced and makes us angry, to be categorized as some damn dog looking for prey How would you women like it if times you tried to talk to me, they cringed and flexed and walked off and told other men OH wow she tried to hit on me, what a dog. Get my point? So us men arelookedat as prey mongers until we prove otherwise with time. Thats why me at age 63, I dont bother with women any longer
You make a good point. Women should put themselves in the man's shoes to understand what it feels like being prejudged. Thank you for sharing.
Hmmmm
@@debrafrei4717 It has affected togetherness as in people getting together. I have lived in the same suburban neighborhood as single for 16.5 years and know men in age ranges that vary that went on to other things and dont bother at all. I see too much of this to not know how women are losing the responsible men. The type men women are attracting today is men that have no self respect and dont mind being the ATM dog. Based on how humans treat other wittles them down to only certain types that dont mind being degraded. I dont see it as sad though, because men like myself are happier that simply disengage and just do what we want

I've always been the kind of person that made the first move but I have a bestie that would never make the first move. I made her go up to the guy she has been seeing for the last 8 years or so. I think we might have to work a little harder after 60 if we expect some attention.
Are you a lesbian
@@michellearnott9749 no but the firstborn of fraternal twins so have a brother that I was always protective of so maybe that made me a little more assertive. I've just always been pretty fearless when it comes to that kind of thing. Why do you ask?

Definitely goes both ways! The man or the woman can initiate. If you like someone go for it. My problem is I like attractive men but that doesn’t mean they’re nice!
Attractive men can be also nice as unattractive ones can not be. So as you've said, if you like someone go for it
lol
Maria Guzman, after just a few years you will learn a hard lesson and settle down, its all about the experience.
Hello.. how are you doing
Hello,I am Dr Randy Torok,how are you doing? I would love us to be good friends in honesty and in trust if you don’t mind, I am from Washington DC and I live in Washington USA and was born in Denmark and I will be glad to hear back from you
I am 60, he is 70, and I am going to make the first move... ;)
Oh my Goodness... I could never say “ Could I join you?”- I’d never be brave enough.
I'm a male and I would love it. Try it, who knows.
Yes women can make the first move
I'm watching you.
Hai grenda are you single
May I know you
this is very refreshing, I think women were exploited and the underdog up to a few years ago and the balance of power was made more equal, women wanted that and rightly so, but maybe it has actually gone too far? Women no expect a lot from men and in a lot of cases to do and offer nothing in return, except that they are a woman. Good relationship are those of an equal footing where two people accept each others autonomy.
I am a young vibrant 69 woman, met a 77 yr young wonderful man... we've talked, how much do I initiate!? I've invited him two places and got a no, but honestly it was the venue and not me he was turning down...
Yes why not.
Smile graciously
Make first contact
Art of flirting
I liked this. It reminds me to let go and stop fretting about how to meet guys, and just go for it!
Lol, Hi Michelle! Do you still believe in true love? Anyone can find his or her soulmate anywhere YES

I enjoyed the video but to get the right one is difficcult
Women over 60 and I'm one of them can become bitter and forget how to have fun flirt and have fun that's why the men go to the young girls because they make them feel good it also makes you feel good I love flirting
I must unlearn the LIE that MOST men want to CHASE! I'm choosing to be open to flirting a bit!😊
In the past 10 years I have found women are not interested unless you check ALL the boxes. Their headline of their post says it all " are there any good ones left? " I think it is good if the woman makes the first move, tired of getting no replies.
A woman should not chase a man. You don't want to appear hungry
Yes, I believe it be a very lovely thing if a woman approached a man that she's interested in.
I feel like the man should have the interest, finesse to approach the woman. If they do not, then I think it sets up a pattern where the woman will always be the one making it happen. Not suitable for me....
Well, women are nervous too
I am 76. If I want the attention of a man I simply do my hair in a soft feminine way, wear a sweet dress and nice shoes and give every guy I encounter a beaming, very friendly smile.
The guys at my local gas station love it when I stop buy, chat with me with a big smile and they are half my age.
EVERY GUY responds to it with a surprised smile and does anything he can to show me his appreciation.
Make it a habit to chat with strangers while you are flying by. Just talk.
I'm German. American women act way too entitled. How else would you explain that my male friends do more for me in big ways than most women's boyfriends or even husbands?
(You can't blame everything on a slight Foreign accent.)
Or that there is always a guy ready for a relationship with me, if I want it or not?
Loosen up ladies! It's not going to kill you to give a little!
I have been all over the world and American men are the best in the world, no kidding.
Since women in my age outnumber men by far you better try a little harder and give them a bit of encouragement.
Do you want a guy or not?
My mother raised me, don't you call him, let him call you. That upbringing paired with being burned badly, big walls are up. I CANNOT SEE ME DOING THE PURSUING.
May I join you is a little too much!
I flirt with a smile or a look.....
With this virus...it’s hard meeting but a hello and eye contact has been fun. You said its trusting someone that’s my problem. At 65 people women mostly tell me your so young looking. Your a child until I mention my age. One point I was insulted ,today I laugh.
But things are opening up let’s see.
I do think that a woman could step out and make the first move!
Really? If you say yes>>> why do you think that way?... nice to hear from you back... greetings from Austin Texas. and you
To my surprise older men seem hesistant to make the first move or any move at all. The younger men are quick to make a "move" on an older woman for various reasons. I think older women have to make the advances now. Its all upside down .
Younger men are more motivated because they’re hornier.
I want to have a senior man to be my friend

Just to have friend.
Hi Glenda Agas! Am William from Austin Texas...where are you from ?
It’s difficult to smile with a mask on....hopefully people can see the smile in my eyes. I have always gotten along better with younger guys. Why is this I wonder? Perhaps it is that some younger guys act more together and mature than those in my chronological age group. What a happy ending with reconnections from high school ! Thanks for sharing about linked in !!! On FB I get many scammers daily… I never make the first move with a guy .. They have always made the first move with me but with covid everything is closed... Oh, and when they are extremely good looking and do make first move, I get a little shy (although I’m very extroverted) and reflect an uppity attitude not good…
jst let that great smile shine!!!!
Hai are you single

Your only interested in how much I have saved and how much I have for my retirement and how to protect yourself 😎
I’m an old fashion older female and would never chase a man. Actually, men don’t like that.
Not all men like when a lady initiate relationship.
