I dont actually mind being single over xmas, its the endless timewasting/messaging that is involved with net dating that gets to me at times, at least I can do it in the comfort of home and when it suits, the thought of going back to the pubbing and clubbing regime sends a chill through me.

If someone could format a more successful method online they but become gazzilionaires very quickly, the markets certainly out there.
You mean like an arranged marriage or a brides for sale type thing? Usually comes with a religious catch...or a hefty price tag.

Im loving the club scene at the moment. Meeting so many new people its great. Hated it twenty years ago...
Still seeing the footballer. But have another circle of friends and am meeting new people off line in a 'traditional' way too so a good mixture. Friday night was a proper out and about laugh with some lads.

What's the routine for solo clubbing then? Or is the idea to bring friends? Can't imagine getting psyched up and ready for a big night out alone!

No, I am thinking along the lines of a well organised and vetted online introduction service to clear out the wheat from the chaff so to speak, I know there are some that claim they do this at a high level in the big cities but never heard of a more mainstream set up.

Like a recruitment agency for dating, but without the spivs running it chasing commission like most recruitment agents I have come across.

With recruitment agencies, they don't have to take into account the way people look. That's kind of an important starter to meeting someone online, being attracted to them.

Heading off to a date. Been chatting since Wednesday. She seems nice, if a little nervous. Lets hope this one goes better than the last.

Update: Yawn.. ZZzzZZzz...

I've been a bit of a lurker her, 50yo, split with wife a couple of months ago after 20yrs marriage, the last few years of that being sexless.

I thought I would ease myself back into the game by downloading a couple of chat apps.
Put search criteria quite wide - 23 to 39 - why the hell not try for a younger girl for a bit of fun. It's a bit of a shotgun approach, message loads to have one or two reply.

More than a few girls are "damaged", been in crap relationships. Early on i make it quite clear im not interested in their past life, thats
history, just want them for who they are now.

So i got talking with a 32yo, messaging more and more. First date she stood me up. Rearranged and she cancelled. By now im thinking fake. She suggested a last minute meet, and turned up. Got on like a house on fire. Only downer was she said sex is only with guys she loves. Kept messaging, got 2nd date arranged. Met up, took her somewhere i knew she would like, then back to mine for coffee. Everyone else in shared house was out and a few kisses later i was ploughing her good and proper. Several times.

Got a rematch arranged for hers this week.

Am i doing this right?

I hope so. Living in a shared house at 50 is tragic.

So a guy who's been in a marriage for 20 years immediately goes out and starts smashing in women young enough to be his daughter?

I mean, if it's real, bravo dude!

If not, epic troll haha.

He's not an epic troll, it's his first post and he was rumbled (probably) immediately.

Haha!

I meant rather quite the story rather than the epicness of trolling itself. :-(

Whilst the new joiner status (on a car forum to post in the match.com thread..) does make me suspicious, it's not all that bizarre is it? A 50 year old fella and a 32 year old lass? Particularly if the chap stays in shape at that age I would say that is easily achievable.

I'm 37 and of last weekends debauchery had a 20 year old barmaid telling me just what she would like to do to me. Flattering but my morals stood in the way of quick gratification. On the other hand, I had a 35 year old very posh lass start the evening telling me how she didn't drink, smoke or do one-nighters and yet by 4am was doing shots with me, stealing my tabs and inviting herself back to my place.

I don't think you lot realise how tragic this thread is!

If I were ever in this situation I would definitely create a new profile for it. I would hate for my main profile to become "one of those match.com thread people".
However 2c is not me, before you get excited. I am still much younger, more handsome, more married and with nicer house than him.
Proabably less sex though, thinking about it.

Personally, I find it romantic.

I can already see the musical.

Young girl grows up, dreaming of one day getting ploughed good and proper by a blue balled 50 year old in a squalid student flat. Sings a couple of songs. Meets recently shat on middle aged Captain Combover. Sings song. Goes home with him. Gets disappointed. Several times. Whilst a very short song is sung. Goes home, via Greggs, cries a bit and buys a cat.

I wouldnt post with my normal handle here, simply because her solicitor could do a simple internet search for my generic username.
Having a daughter still in full time education, the ex gets the house.

Half your age plus seven, isnt that the rule?
There are a lot of girls out there from bad relationships, a lot have kids too and dont go out evenings so find it hard to meet guys, and who dont really care about age if the person treats them with respect and you can maintain an interesting conversation with them.

Plenty of 40+ guys get divorced.
Most younger women would tell us to FO, but some dont.
