    Dating After 50

    I wish that were true. But folks seem scared of one another and mis trustful. I understand that. I'm not stupid, but i don't want to spend the rest of my days thinking everyone I meet is out to use or abuse me either. I don't need someone to take care of me. I'm fine. But some adults...

    Is love the answer?

    The hippies and John Lennon tried it and it didn't work then, i know, I was there. it probably won't work now. Money, greed, selfishness and "all about me" folks could care less. These are different times. Its all about money. How much one has, can get and keep.

    Can I ask this here? If you use one of those medical alert gizmos, how do you like it?

    I wish I could help you. I'm a two stroke survivor and I have one issued and monitored by The VA. I've never had to use it thankfully but i tested it and they answer right away. That's all I can offer you.

    Dating After 50

    You ought to try dating after 70. After my wife passed away, I found I didn't know much about dating. A companion might be nice. Someone to go to a movie with, or fish'n a walk etc. I've got family and grand kids in the area so I'm not alone but live alone.

    Is Retirement All It's Cracked Up To Be?

    Its great for about the first 6 months to a year. Then you start looking dor things to do. TV sucks and sitting in front of it even worse. But, you know what they say about a home owner, he's just a guy on his way to the hardware store ..

    "Thank You For Your Service"

    I'm 70 almost 71. I served with U.S. Marines during a rather unpopular time. Too bad we didn't get a very friendly welcome home instead of what we recieved most of the time coming home. I always now thank Veteran's for their service knowing what they know. They don't have to be traumatized folks...

    My intro

    Hell, I'm right behind you age wise. Ever try explain what it was like in 1958 to the younger generation ? They can't possibably understand. I took my driver's test in my mom's 56 Cadillac Coupe Seville. And I had to parallel park that big tuna boat to get my license. I miss certain things...

    How do you feel about banking online?

    Simple answer . No. I control my own finances. I don't trust banks, they're in the business to make money. If not for credit, I'd put it all in a coffee can. Cash money talks.

    Making New Friends When Single and Alone

    I'm new here but i hear you. I'm 70 almost 71. Former Marine Corps. My wife passed away seven years ago. Lucky me, I've got kids and grand kids in the area i live in, but there is a void. I feel sometimes like a companion to do things with would be lovely, but it seems that many folks are afraid...
