Younger Men Older Women


It has been strange lately. I know I don't look my age. I don't whether to rejoice or be perturbed. The fellows in their forties have been beating my door down. Then they want to give their heart away. Apparently, my well written profile is the culprit. I describe who I am well and what I am looking for. The men are mentally drooling! I don't know what to say, except that I am flattered that I still can get some attention from adoring fans.

This of course is not my reason for writing so well. It is obviously to get definitive results. It is hilarious to me that most men completely ignore the basic requirements listed and go barreling down the path to try to meet me. I set an age parameter, cultural/race preference, and other basic preferences that are completely ignored. I roll with all of this knowing the ball may drop at any moment. Men my own age are more concerned about things I don't care about, and the younger ones have captured a romantic tone that sends me sailing into a state mindless intrigue. I only wish I was twenty years younger and all this was going on. Then, the men I had twenty years ago were a pain in the posterior. I didn't date in high school and trying to date at an age when I should be a Grandmother is strange. I guess come what may, I am happy old maid, that will never look forward to a rocking chair (because I am always too busy), I never married so there are no to look forward to, if a younger man wants to whisk me off my feet, I just may let him try; but, I will be sure that he understands what he is getting into. I'll probably have to be "his mama today!" Forget acting my age! http://bigchurch.com

I get email daily from men who are much younger than me - who proclaim their undying love. 99% of the time they are scammers.

If you don't know me you haven't missed much - but if you don't know Jesus you've missed everything!!

I want thank those of you for warning me about younger scammers. I agree that all relationships start as good friendships. This has nothing to do with age, but common sense and good Christian character. I dropped one guy who seemed honest enough, but had a controlling nature. The one I am corresponding with at the moment, I have under my microscope. The old saying goes, "What you are is so loud I can't hear a word you are saying!" I prefer being a transparent person (the same outside as inside), my Christian faith only makes me a better person on both sides of that. I really expect the same of others. Not that it happens like that, I can hope though.

I'll be even more alert as to the signs of departure from the norm as I write these characters. I'm not easy swayed by others emotions and keep myself well grounded. If Jesus isn't really in the center of the conversation, than a red flag needs to go up. Thank again for watching out for this "old maid." HelpingHandshttp://bigchurch.com
