Hi! I call those guys "buzzards". Word got out quick about our situation and "they" started hovering. What grossed me out was some of the type of men that hovered, men that wouldn't have a chance in hell. Even old friends whom I love as friends have come on to me. I am always thinking, "if you only knew", and lots of people do...I have no problem telling people what a shit I've been. My packaging might be awesome but the gift inside is no good. I'm putting my ring back on, for my sake, and theirs!

ME: WW 54 EA that turned in PA for 4 months

HIM: BS 56

Married 25 years

tried R for 6 years, he couldn't handle it and left me two weeks ago.

As much as we desire a truly fresh start, unencumbered by the emotional damage of being cheated on, that's just not possible.

Whether or not suitors are looking to prey on women or have truly good intentions, the most important thing is for you to feel safe. Consider caution to be a present to yourself, as much as it is for protection against a real threat.

Some of this happens to men as well. When I first started OLD (before finding my sweet girlfriend), I was swarmed with women wanting to meet, probably because I had a job, a home and no picture of myself with a huge bass. That made me a catch, sadly.

and no picture of myself with a huge bass.

I was only on online dating for a few weeks, but I skipped every man who had a fish picture in his profile. Which was about 98% of them.

If men only knew that's how easy it was...

No fish pic = much much larger pool of women to choose from!!!

I also skipped men with photos of their car or motorcycle. Seriously? If you're posing next to it, that's one thing but if it's just the car, or just the bike, paaahhlleeaase!!!
