Real dating
|

I get it I really do, I used to read the negative, the bitter, the ones who have nothing good to say about the opposite sex posts but I understand now. I think people reach a point in their lives where they say "relationship ? Why bother? Why rock the boat why take another risk in getting hurt, used . .(insert any word that mat apply) I' m happy where I'm at in my life, it's just not worth all the time and effort, I get it now I really do. Not talking about myself here. I don't like internet dating only here for forums, but last week after reading a few posts from men about how ALL women are gold diggers , and of course that led to other bitter men contriburting their low opinion of women I kind of thought Whoa there! Why be that way ? But then I got to thinking ( oh oh ) and came to the conclusion okay they have given up, they are happy well in general ,except in forums where they can put women down and blame all women for their failure to have a meaningful relationship, so they don"'t want to take the chance, rock the boat, or make the effort. Like I said I get it. |

Topic:
FWB
|
|
No one nailed anything here except their own paranoia. As I've said here before I have FWB, currently 3 with 0 (like as in none) drama or diseases, what's required is complete honesty from the very beginning. I am sure that it gets easier with age, I just hit 63 and my FWB are 47, 62 and 65. They are just women like me that don't have any desire to give up on sex just because we're getting older; we like each other we treat each other kindly and with respect and have a great time. It can be done it just takes EFFORT, COMMUNICATION and RESPECT! If you're not capable of these things with a women you'll need to change so you are or else I don't think you'll be able to have FWB. Think of this: if you're lets say over 50ish and alone and want to change that DO IT! If not now, when? Time is NOT on or side....... And btw as a footnote I wouldn't describe any of my current FWB as "loose women" and believe me I've known loose women. Read my profile. So these fwb all know you are seeing other woman? If that's what works for you and them ,than great like they say different strokes for different folks. But sooner or later one of them will start throwing shade about being "exclusive" then what? It's bound to happen , sorry not sorry I just can't wrap my mind about someone being just a hole |

Topic:
The Smoking Question
|
|
I have no problem with you smoking, it is your life but you cannot smoke in my presence as it adversely affects me. I also seem to have a problem with the drinking question. I generally have a couple of drinks every day so I drink often. That does not make me drunk every day but some conclude I must be since I drink "often". The only way to really know the situation with drinking or smoking is to ask!!

It seems that it is a state party decision and has been done numerous times previously by both political parties especially when a President is running for a 2nd term.

Topic:
Brexit
|
|
I'm a little confused on this Brexit thing.
1. I understand the population voted several years ago to leave the EU. 2. Prime Minister May worked with the EU to create an exit plan for the future. 3. Your politicians voted 3 times not to accept that negotiated plan. 4. They now refuse to leave the EU without a negotiated plan. 5. They have failed to create a plan for Brexit and submit it to the EU. Obviously they want something they don't have yet have no idea what they actually want and can support. Seems to me there is no solution to that dilemma!! Perhaps an election and a wholesale replacement of many politicians is the only possible answer! |

No Derek, you are the norm. Most older, married guys have the same problem of being alone and limited or no sexual life.  Just how do you "know" this?
Many married, older women have a very hard time understanding the needs of their husband!!
Define those "needs". |

While attempting to discuss intimate details early in get acquainted messages is inappropriate, an attempt to understand a potential partner's attitude toward their sexuality as well as many other things is appropriate. They becomes especially critical when that initial meet is much more involved than a 10 minute drive and a couple bucks.
Also any reasonably close initial meet needs to be in the first couple weeks. If you can't even commit to a coffee or happy hour beer in those couple weeks, you just are not interested in ever meeting and a waste of my time!! |

Since we are not born racist (or sexist), we have to realize that it's a LEARNED ideology. And it has to be UNLEARNED. Yes, it is a learned behavior but not strictly from our parents but also our environment especially during our growing up years. When we observe or have negative experiences predominately from one demographic group, we associate that behavior with that demographic group. Makes no difference if that demographic group is based on race, gender, social status, nationality, religion, or education. We conclude those people and any others that fit in that demographic group are bad people we don't want to associate with. That will not change unless we encounter a significant number of people in that demographic group that we conclude are not bad people and do not have that specific undesirable behavior. |

The fear women have?
|
|
...of being lied to and missing their turn? missing their turn at what?? OT: I think one fear women may have is ending up alone. That is a fear a lot of men have also. Nothing to fear, that is the standard condition when you get old. We are all too set in our ways to be compatible with most of the other people in our world!! We keep looking but not finding someone we could actually be interested in and them in us. Just the condition of life!!! |

Some of the problem in the US is the distances involved. I spend much more time with friends than family because friends are closer by in most cases. I try to see my daughter and family every couple weeks but it is 1 1/2 hour drive each way.

While we all aren't the same in some ways, we all are not different either. There are common characteristics of each and there is statistical evidence to back that up. When we talk about those characteristics, the term "all" is not appropriate but the terms "many" and "most" may be.

Net Exporters and Importers

I'm not really surprised by what we import into the US. In my opinion, this raises 2 concerns. We need to have products that we export to offset the amount of imports so that the trade balance is nearer to even. We also need to be concerned when those imports destroy certain industries such that we become reliant on foreign countries for that industry. There is a big difference between opening a factory to produce dishwashers vs an industry to produce steel or copper wire. Given the availability of the raw materials, building new dishwashers becomes relatively easy; trying to do that without steel or copper wire is impossible.

Something to look at with this, is the sequence of events. The US started outsourcing industry overseas, after China was opened up as a blank-check trading "partner' back in the 1970's, and trade and tax regulations were "adjusted" to make it vastly more profitable to make things overseas and import finished products, than keep industry at home. Despite claims by some that high wages for some workers, driven up by unions, were the primary cause of everything, the reality is very different. Wages were driven down AFTER the Reagan era "supply side" tax cuts were handed out to businesses and the investor classes with no corresponding spending cuts. Despite huge reductions in wages and benefits, industries still raced to send manufacturing jobs elsewhere, again because various regulations caused that behavior to be more profitable. The reason why Trump has been surprised by businesses CONTINUING to do this, despite even more vast cuts to taxes on the investor classes, is because HE refuses to recognize the facts about this game as well. You will need to explain this more. I do not see how reducing taxes on business or even on individuals would make it cheaper to produce some products in a foreign country. Other regulations such as labor and environmental that push up the cost to produce here would make it cheaper to import the finished product than produce it here. |
