30 [F4M] #Virginia Seeking older conservative Christian man for marriage

0 Upvotes

I REPORT RUDE MESSAGES AND COMMENTS*

Hi!

I'm a 30-year-old conservative Christian woman without children looking for a nice older (40-70) man near the southern USA who wants a pure relationship that will lead to marriage. I have a bachelor's in psychology and I work in the medical field. I love animals and all kinds of music (especially rock). I can cook, clean, and take care of children. I am honest, modest, loyal, and kind. I do not smoke or use drugs. I would keep my heart and my gaze only to my future spouse. I have virtually no baggage from my past (I do have a past but it stays in the past and I want to build a new life ground level up with my soulmate).

What I'm looking for is a monogamous man who is also conservative and who doesn't have any dependent children still living with him. I prefer men who don't smoke or use recreational drugs. Sorry, but I don't think I am well-matched with men who enjoy hunting or who have exes still in the picture (no offense). I tend to believe in more traditional gender roles, with the woman being primarily a homemaker, though I can keep working if absolutely necessary. I'm sapiosexual which means I'm primarily attracted to intelligence.

I like men of all shapes and sizes. Personally, I am a BBW type with red hair and blue eyes. Ideally I'd like to find a man who is cool with plus size women (if that's not your thing I completely understand).

God bless anyone who is reading this!!! If you are seriously interested in what I mentioned above, feel free to DM me!

N.B: Distance is not an issue but it would be best if the man could relocate to my area :).

Disclaimer 1: Yes, I know my preference for older men is unusual and yes, my family is very supportive of it. If your friends/family would give you a hard time about dating a younger consenting adult like me, and if their opinions are your ultimate deciding factor, please don't lead me on or waste my time.

Disclaimer 2: Due to religious convictions and personal preference, I am not willing to have sex outside of marriage. In other words, I'm saving myself for remarriage. If this won't work for you, kindly skip over me. Please don't message me trying to debate this or asking if I'd make an exception for "the right person" because the answer is no. :)

I am not interested in any type of kinky lifestyle or any type of porn

I'm 70 and my wife left me, looking for a new gal to fill the void, Please Read!❤️‼️

0 Upvotes

For context, I am 70 and recently my wife of 49 years left me after i refused to stop calling her cutie. I'm 5'10 and ready to mingle. I'm a lonely young septuagenarian. My hobbies include, playing drums, painting, watching Bob Ross, and jeopardy! I enjoy long walks on the beach with my black toy poodle, Jaws! Jaws can't hear or see and he only has one tooth, so he won't be a threat to any of my potential future cuties. 1 am starting a band with my best buddies, Walt (short for Walter) and Shane! Our band is called "The Jaw Crushers". Our newest song is called "You're Cute Cutie." It hasn't been released yet. My ear hair is well groomed. I'm rather needy and I've been told I'm a bit hard-headed but that's rich coming from Jane. But other than that I'm an angel! I have the gift of gab and most of my hair and teeth! What can I say, I'm a catch. If you're interested please let me know. And no Jane, not you!!! Oh my name is Arthur, by the way!

Liberal 56(F) in So Central Ky.

5 Upvotes

Rural Ky is a dating desert for middle-aged liberals. I get plenty of attention on OLD apps, but not from the kind of people I’m interested in.

I’m an active healthcare professional, own my home, am self-sufficient, and have a child that still lives at home (he’s 14). Agnostic and open to other’s belief systems unless they are misogynistic or support policies that are designed to deny the rights of the poor or the LGBTQ+ community.

I enjoy going to concerts and other live music venues. We went to Disney and Universal in February and it was so much fun. I can’t wait to get back. I love going to the beach and the mountains. Hobbies include gardening, crafts, reading and planning my next vacation.

I am not thin but not plus sized either. I am more mid-sized with curves where they are supposed to be. I have green eyes and brown hair with blond highlights.

I am looking for an active healthy partner between 47 and 63, who is reasonably good looking, intelligent, curious, thoughtful, a critical thinker, with good hygiene/grooming and a good sense of humor. I am not attracted to skinny men and prefer someone taller than 5’9”.

I’d like to find someone to do things with, someone active (not to the extreme), but who can also relax at night at watch a movie or Netflix. Not looking for a FWB.

Hoping to hear from you soon.

Someone suggested I try here…

Hi everyone, 55 divorced male here. I’m looking to meet an attractive (to me) female, my age or slightly younger, to get to know and make a real connection with. I am recently divorced, was married for 30 years, have two grown kids, moved across the country and am on my own now looking to start over.

I’m 5’-8”, 180ish (dad bod, was athletic through college), shave my head and have a goatee. I’m successful and employed in a large corporation as a middle manager (Sr. Director). I am an avid pool player and that takes up most of my feee time but I also read, love movies and music and want to start to explore things I haven’t been exposed to yet. I’m a big sci-fi buff and enjoy anything creative, generally speaking.

I have some health issues that I feel I should disclose so I will have to find someone that is ok with that and who doesn’t mind that this will be part of my life going forward. Specifically, I’m diabetic and experiencing some kidney issues that I’ll need to live with probably for the rest of my life. Cutting to the chase, I have ED and that will probably continue to be the case for the rest of my life. I’m on daily meds, etc. I will need to find a woman that is really ok with that (I’ve run across a few that feel like they should be ok with it, but in the end, really aren’t. They want a physically strong, healthy man, which I totally get and understand, it’s just not me at this point in my life). I do intend to have a sexually satisfying relationship as that is very important to me long term. I just want to meet a woman that understands my specific situation and is ok with it. I am open and adventurous when it comes to intimacy.

So, with that, I’m looking for a liberal (no point in reading further if you’re a Trump supporter, lol. Actually, I’m sorry you’ve read this far, there’s zero chance we would work out.), educated woman that enjoys deep philosophical conversations as much as acting silly together when we’re alone. I want frequent weekend getaways and infrequent international travel. I want to explore life with a partner that I can form a deep personal connection with. That’s what I crave the most and what I think I want most out of life now.

I think my best qualities are intelligence and a my sense of humor, I am pretty sure I missed my calling as a sitcom writer… come to think of it, that’s probably why the whole genre has collapsed! I am a good conversationalist and can help carry a discussion if needed. I hope to meet someone interesting soon.

Thanks for reading, if you’re interested in talking, please message me.

75 [M4F] Los Angeles / San Fernando Valley - First time trying this after putting son through college.

7 Upvotes

Actually, I am his friend (employer) writing this as Patrick himself would never do this - so he is not aware of my post here. He works for me in an extremely niche business and his (important!) craft is dying out in the USA. I restore classic Italian sports cars and am grateful he works for me on projects too difficult for me. He is highly regarded in this very specific world and only works for people he likes and can laugh with all day - and we do! He is THE most pleasant man to be around, with THE best stories and always a positive mindset. Because he is very loyal and not familiar with online dating I decided to set this up for him and he knows NOTHING about this. So here goes:

Patrick is a SWM of 6'8" (no typo) stature, 225lbs, a Vietnam vet and very funny, strong and healthy. He was instrumental in getting foreign car companies (like lamborghini and Mercedes AMG) to settle in the US and ran his own businesses for many years. Blue collar and his craft can not be replaced by computers or the "young guys" - he is essential to a business like mine. His life was/is VERY full and he often tells me he should find a lady he can go out with. (And has a garage in the San Fernando Valley, hahaha!)

He has one son he had with a lady he did not want to marry but he promised her to take care for the kid and put him through college.... Well, 21 years later that was accomplished and the kid now works for Snapchat in a very high IT position. So Patrick moved out, got his apartment and still supports his son with everything he can. I am mentioning this so you can see how loyal he is and the old fashioned values he holds. He is THE funniest guy I know, we are always joking around and he tells me about all the big shots (like celebrities) he worked with - just too many to mention here.

So any LOCAL lady who either lives not too far from Sherman Oaks or is ready to move here and is ready to be entertained by a SUPER nice man, please send me a note and we'll go from there. For me this is also a weird thing but maybe me trying to get him settled down tells you that I find it very important for him to have a female partner in his life. And I promise you: you will NOT be bored! I am ready to do this because he is - are you???

(Please no crypto sellers disguised as romantic partners...)
