As you get older...it gets tougher to find a mate.
I was married at 21 and divorced at 25! Im 56 now and single. Thats not a good sign of ...love in the making! Anyhow! Cheer up!!!!!!!!!!!!

brokenheart I'm a little blue today too. You would think that when you reach 50 you would have it all together, but not so. Sometimes you just need to hear a kind word. Anyone out there?



I am sorry I missed your post Sunday! I hope you decide to stay around. You will make a lot of friends on the 50 and over site!

Welcome!!!!flowerforyou

COme on now, let's not generalize.
Men get used, just like women.

We all need to keep our guards up, for the scammers/user's.

Go slow & ck their story, if something looks like a flag, it prob. is.

That is why we all watch eachother's backs, here.

Hello to all .. my friend told me about this site so I signed up and looked around .. and I came across "Lonely" and over 50 ..
and I read all of your post .. thanks I needed to read what others are thinking in our age group and those that are not.
I've been divorced for two and a half years. We had been together for 28. Sure the breaking up was hard, but to see my grown children sad that was the hardest of all. Happy to say they are both married now..
My ex remarried a year after he left, last year we had two weddings and the birth of a new baby.
Now the lonely had been setting in.
Everyone seems to have moved on.
I have tried other sites, dated a few.. but I feel like a newbie to this dating thing all over again. I don't understand what men seem to want, or understand when they say they want LTR, but then turn around and say they're only looking for some fun. Is this the New Fifty way of talking when you're single again?
This is a very lonely time.. and like one person said, I have my friends and family , but at the end of the day, and you go to bed ... that is the hard part.
I have my night outs with the girls, and those get togethers with family.
But it's just not the same as sitting next to that one person.. I'm new so anything would help thanks

Von Hi :) glad you found us in the 50 and over group there is lots of topics to join in.

What your feeling allot of us do. when you asked about LTR
and what you've found. And yeah I think the internet can be a free sex thing for some that play games so you really have to be careful. Honesty isn't always the best policy with some.

But the best thing to me about this site is the forum. And making friends and if I find love along the way good :)

Welcome Von!

I agree with you Carol -- the Forums are the best thing here! Even though I'm not looking for anyone -- I don't want to leave the Forums or the friends I've made here over the last couple years.

Hi, a friend told me about this site, but she has never used the forums. I thought I would check it out. Seems to be a lot of support here.
I am starting the New Year out alone as my husband told me on New Year's Eve that he thought it was over between us. He started the new year with an "out with the old and in with the new" lease on life! His life is moving on, I am on hold. Things look really down right now.
So I know how a lot of you feel, but you just have to take it one day at a time, look forward, not back, and realize that you do not have to be in a relationship to be happy. Time heals all things.
I am lucky to have a friend who helps me get through the days, and gives me pep talks, tells me I have to think of myself now, not what my soon to be ex is doing, because that is what depresses me. I hope everyone of you are blessed with friends like her. A girl needs all the friends she can get, because they are usually the ones that pull us out of that pity party we always seem to throw for ourselves.
There is one thought I like to keep in the front of my mind, "God never takes anything away from you without replacing it with something better". We just have to be patient and BELIEVE IT WITH ALL OUR HEARTS!
I look forward to making new friends.
