When I've been single I've gone and looked at a few men that were what we'd call "unfinished business" and that mostly is where they should have stayed!<br /><br />Reading this makes me know I want to stay with my boyfriend for good. I'm lucky to have found the right one and hope it lasts. He has all the boxes ticked and a few extra! The thought of having to start dating again fills me with dread and the grass is rarely greener.<br /><br />My friend who's 55 has tried internet dating and I was shocked at how old and bald the men were when the women still looked attractive. There must be some good men out there over 50 though, I hope you find a good one!<br /><br />I've bought expensive bottles of Udo's oil from Fresh and Wild and it does work, if you remember to take it, which I generally don't. Your suggestions sounds like a much more cost effective way of doing it.<br /><br />I hope you've had a good weekend xxChristina @ Fashion's Most Wantedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06583201549332262341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4316792173764568160.post-69398366286260816232010-08-12T14:54:08.545-07:002010-08-12T14:54:08.545-07:00Poignant and thoughtful.

I think that there is nothing more dead than a dead romance.. <br />I cant imagine dating at my age but if I had to I think I would stick to new ones.. younger than me of course :) and keep them at arms length, Who want to wash someone's bloody underwear all over again xx<br />Ps My mother in law takes all those seeds and looks amazing I must get them from Neals Yard thanksWildernesschichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00204518870992194687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4316792173764568160.post-36244678122559108552010-08-08T13:43:13.875-07:002010-08-08T13:43:13.875-07:00I am sorry so many "blokes" are into you...I am sorry so many "blokes" are into youngsters rather than women their own age. I can find no reason to share in support of representatives of my sex as to "why" they act as they do, I assume more than likely from straight-up fear of the quick approaching reaper, but there are still those, amongst us, that DO act our age and would rather spend time (as many of US do) in the company of wise, educated, beautiful women OUR OWN AGE, rather than the half our age looks "great" (subjective term) but has nothing-else-going-for-it crowd. I say screw 'em, if they are too stupid to realize what they are missing, just keep on lookin' and laugh yer ass off when they get dumped.<br />Excess vodka btw, goes well with no one of ANY age...Scale Wormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09583891708651272779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4316792173764568160.post-73989550683802062652010-08-06T04:37:26.237-07:002010-08-06T04:37:26.237-07:00It's a tough call!

I know several wonderful women who are with their less than wonderful husbands on the basis that you're better with The Devil You Know.<br /><br />Over 50, they are unsatisfied with their lives, but fearful of the fact that men will not exactly be queuing up for them because of their ages. <br /><br />Yet these women have TONS to offer.<br /><br />Maybe one solution is for us all to go a bit gay when we get over the age of 50 as it seems to me that women appreciate the qualities of other women more than men do.<br /><br />Ali xAlison Crosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06565962059926865121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4316792173764568160.post-28135652260317576362010-08-06T03:23:59.166-07:002010-08-06T03:23:59.166-07:00You are a phenomenal writer -- not simply what you...You are a phenomenal writer -- not simply what you said, but how you said it.<br /><br />What a perfect way to start my day.
