Lowery. First…and this is my opinion… older women won’tbe playing the games, but will be a bit more cynical about men because of the wisdom one has learned. And…if I’m out with my friends – female types, or couples, and you’re at the bar, how exactly should I approach you so it doesn’t seem that I’m looking to just pick you up for the evening, if you get my drift. So it’s a double edged sword.

And then there’s this. I don’t do the match.com thing because , for me,while I don’t mind a man in my life, I just don’t want one in my home – lol. In other words, I’m not quite looking for a soulmate, for a committed relationship of permanence..I’ve done that already. Now, one must always remember to believe in never saying never. But, for the most part, miss having male friends to spend time with. The dynamic is different than spending time with female friends.

I think maybe it’s (the difficulty) fairly equal for both men and women when it comes to meeting someone out there on the “social scene”.
