Seniors...Do You Still Get Admiring Glances, Smiles and Looks from the Opposite Sex?

Do you still get signs of admiration and attraction from the opposite sex? Like, when you're in a public place, will strangers give you an interested glance, smile or "look"? When I was younger, I'd get some loud wolf whistles, and comments or looks...and although I'm older now, it's still happening, but in a more toned down and subtle way (thankfully).

How about you, still got the magic goin' on?? :saturn:
 

I still got hit on in Singleton occasionally up to a few years ago, but mainly I suspect by aging divorcees looking for a catch who owned a house they could move into.
None of them were George Clooney.
 
Oh, absolutely - all the time!



... oh, wait, the opposite sex? :confused:

Up to a few years ago, yes. Since I became a monk, there isn't much opportunity for the opposite sex to even see me, let alone offer an opinion of my charms. :(
 

Those flirtatious looks, wolf-whistle blowing, fall-all-over-you types are 99.9% married men. They are just channeling their inner 'single self' ..... and I have always thought of that as only self promoting ..

I would find my 'magic' in a refined, quiet guy .. one who can look you straight in the eye and talk. Now, that's sexy to me.

lol....I would agree, smart is sexy.
 
There was a book written....THE INVISIBLE WOMAN..as some of feel we become to men as we age.

Being divorced and out and about often as an early middle aged woman, there were many. Now the precious few I get are not from anyone I would remotely be interested in and are usually married. And I definitely feel invisible among men these days, which doesn't bother me one bit. I have zero interest.
 
I still enjoy it when women give me those coy smiles. Guess I'm a handsome guy, after all . . . Either that or I look like somebody on America's Most Wanted...

Well, some do like the tough lookin' ones, That Guy. James Dean, y'know. ;)



I'm with Boos Mom - the quiet and/or philosophical ones are more interesting.
 
Fallin' all over flirting was never welcomed, in fact even when I was younger and available, I'd ignore most attention...rather meet up with a more subtle type, more mysterious, lol. I agree That Guy, coy little smiles are nice to get...funny if you looked like someone aired on AMW. :p

I remember the wolf whistles a few years ago, but don't go out so much these days without hubby,so I don't hear them any more.
 
Hey that's me!

Maybe we should meet. That sounds like me!

Naw, you probably go for tall handsome types with lots of money
and a very comfortable home.

LOL: you are a lady, right, Amethyst1???

Naw; tall handsome types are usually 99% ego - not worth the time. :D
 
I always get smiles and friendly, courteous treatment from other people, shopkeepers and so on when I'm out and about....absolutely nothing sexual.

Another thing I've noticed about being old.... I can grab my fishing rod and go walking along a beach casting into likely spots as I go.
One time that I remember,... I sorta stumbled through a nude beach (well how the bloody hell did I know it was) and as I was fishing, a much younger woman got up off the sand and walked up to me and asked how the fishing was. (I didn't know where to look when she was talking to me)
After a few minutes of small talk, she said bye and went back to her spot on the beach.

From that moment on, I realised that due to my age, I was no longer considered a threat to the opposite sex. Nude women could feel comfortable talking to an old fisherman with ease.

Great story, Terra, made me snicker thinking about how you didn't know where to look!:excitement: I can only imagine how uncomfortable you were.
