Looking for some new friends,and a possible relationship.
I am 50 yrs old but don't look or act like an old man.
I was married for 28 yrs and my wife just left me .
This is all new to me..

TMI Dude. Delete the drama part of your profile. And the cheezy profile pick and the juvenile "hookup" criteria in your head line. Maybe put the photo you have on the second string but definitely go to the no shades and smiling head and shoulders shot for a lead.

50 and divorced is NOT terminal you don't have to prove you still have something of a body. You probably want to prove you have something of a personality with interests. And some kind of dateable wardrobe.

Many Mingle'ers have been in your situation and you can socialize here, even make friends, but don't put a target on your back for the scammers because they will fill your inbox and your life with more misery than you have now.

Does it suck to have the rug pulled out from under you; yea. But here the go to place is if you put a profile up before the hangover part of the divorce is done is she had a reason to go. No one worth their salt wants to be the "inbetween" gal unless you are looking for well something to make the ex jealous. And you have a lot of money to waste on party girls.

Trust me I have seen good guys dumped but she won't care. And whining around adult women makes us NOT care. That would be sad because there are good ones here.

Don't crowd your 23 year old son into the drama. He can be the greatest kid in the world but normal 50ish women don't want the drama of a 20 Something complicating the getting to know you stage. Especially if they have kids.

So goes the "reality check". Read the threads about writing profiles and you will get some good ideas. This site works if you do it right. Good Luck in your search.

same don't mention ,I was with my wife for 28 yrs,and one night she told me without notice that she met a guy online and was leaving me there is no we anymore so start speaking for yourself only take more pictures and i'd suggest taking some time to think about getting a divorce most people don't want to date someone married and so recent
