Senior Dating & Sexuality Support Group
This community is intended for senior to discuss senior dating and sexuality, and the specific issues that arise for seniors, such as starting over as a widow or widower.
I have been single for over 20 plus years and now I'm feeling lonely. I know I need to get out more but I do not like going to places alone. I attend church but all the members are older than me and married. Going to "meetups" are hard for me also due to my shyness. And using a dating site is scary. It seems all the men are scammers or hard to trust. It is so sad nowadays dating has become so hard and impossible. I will turn 60 in a few months and I would like a companion, someone to talk to, or do something with. Thought older men were not picky, they are just as picky as the young ones.

I have toys. So the ones I have not used or need any more, are gone in the trash. One of my toys is just a regular hand held massager with an attachment. The other is a real insertable toy. This morning I ordered a new toy with attachments. It is small and has a brush like attachment and the other looks like a rose with a tiny tongue. I'll get it in about 2 weeks. Rechargable and...

I can't believe this has gone on this long. So I don't have much hope of getting a tech job, but I saw an educational job that I thought might be really good.

Talk to as many as you can handle, it will help with the shyness. Also if you talk to them does not mean you are going to actually meet anyone, but it does give you a feeling of being wanted.
If you talk to enough of them you will find that talking to people in public will be easier.
If you are shy, go to the grocery store during the busiest time of day and say 'hi' to everyone you see. Do that a few times the more days the better.
Then challenge yourself to to up your game and comment on peoples food choice or clothing.
The bigger the store the better.
then go to a busy park during the day and do the same thing.
Challenge yourself, come back here and up date us on your success.
Read your advise above, but online dating is not all that easy either. Believe me I tried it. In 18 months I "met"
three scammers and four perverts. Would love to find a site where there are honest and loyal gentlemen.
May be you think they still exists?
And in the grocery store I only talk to women my age...Let me know if you know of any ......
Volunteer if possible there are also senior travel groups forming online. Good luck and stay safe
