It's just so unfair that men get more attractive to the opposite sex as they age but the opposite applies to women.

^ Oooo a new one to add to the"fables people think are facts" list then. tnx!

Actually, i don't look a day over 40...

I am 46 not 47!!!!

By the time you accept my proposal you will be at least 47 - and I'll be 107!!

duplicate - like me

I am 46 not 47!!!!

it still makes you an old bat

Men suck. Stick with the cat.

some women too

I am 46 not 47!!!!

it still makes you an old bat

and i wouldn't fancy being seen with her in broad daylight

But, and this is the big but, the men i meet seem sort of stupid and dorky.

Or else, they put on airs!!

History repeats, does it? I'd say you're living a self-fulfilling prophesy by repeating the above to yourself over and over. Start noticing and focusing on what you like about the guys you meet. Appreciation is the key, IMHO, to any happy and satisfying relationship. Finding faults usually has a singular and predictable outcome. Have fun with a guy. The rest is truly not so important.

Also, I believe Kayo would fit the bill marvelously . . . handsome, witty, charming, and most importantly experienced in so many ways. But you might want to act quickly for guys like this don't last long as bachelors.

All i want to know -is how to attract a male mate?

I am clean, look ok, dress well etc. and have a big butt

Help me...!!!

re-reading your post, I think I found what the problem is...

The problem is Patsy's advertising style! "Big butt"..goodness Patsy! That would be like describing a juicy fruit basket as "Has some big apples, and round oranges, and a medium melon". You need more descriptive words, make the reader want to get their hands on that ..er..basket of fruit, and make their mouth water. Words like "plump", "juicy",....."curvy".

I fully agree with Eek.

A bit more (juicy) details would be more than welcome. Like size of pants, your weight, length, waist size, hairstyle and (real) color.

Next the type/style of clothes you like to dress in and how much make up and time you need to be able to present yourself to a potential

victim partner. What kind of food you like is very important as well and so is the type of bedroom Olympics you prefer.

Hobbies, what hobbies do you have other than playing with your cat...... We guys are very simple, we either like a traditional lady or an adventurous wicked one. Some guys avators would give you an indication of what they are into but it seems you have figured that out already by rejecting the old fashioned Golden Retriever family person sort of guy.

So my advice is, be clear in what you are looking for before going on a date and understand your limits.

Take for example Eek, she would turn every guys head wherever she is, I am sure.

Kind regards,

Alex

..because my avatar depicts a pink cat ?

and what are we of moral rectitude to infer from that?

I am sure you are just continuing the joke eek, however that was a grammatical innovation by raro

sorry, shoulda been 'and what are we whom are of moral rectitude...etc'

see...I had just watched John Huston's Moby Dick and, just like waving air-swords around and yelling after watching The Seven Samurai one is consumed by Capt Ahab's madness...to the point that the distinction between pink cats and white whales becomes blurred...

better to say no more...there but for the grace ob god...etc

god love ya, Ms eek...you too, Ms patsy

WOMAN'S POEM

Before I lay me down to sleep,

I pray for a man, who's not a creep,

One who's handsome, smart and strong.

One who loves to listen long,

One who thinks before he speaks,

One who'll call, not wait for weeks.

I pray he's gainfully employed,

When I spend his cash, won't be annoyed.

Pulls out my chair and opens my door,

Massages my back and begs to do more.

Oh! Send me a man who'll make love to my mind,

Knows what to answer to "how big is my behind?"

I pray that this man will love me to no end,

And always be my very best friend.

MAN'S POEM

I pray for a deaf-mute nymphomaniac with huge boobs who owns a liquor

store and a golf course. This doesn't rhyme and I don't care.

Anyone too witty, clever and handsome is invariably gay.

So true...

So NOT true! Add great fashion sense, and you're probably right though.

But to the OP....

Patsy, I know you don't know me as I'm a relative newbie here, so sorry for butting in.....it's the cat obsession, my friend.

Women that love horses, dogs, or cats, to the point that some part of their lives revolve around the animal are a scary prospect for a man because he see's himself playing second fiddle to a pet at some time.

Men are too insecure to accept that at first meeting.

You should have met me when I had five of the furry buggers!! Now I'm down to one. And to give me some dues, at the time when I eventually invited some poor uninformed male to my home, I did ask them if they liked cats, or were allergic to cats etc. I would say that 3 out of 5 times the men were more interested in playing with the cats than in my extraordinary culinary skills!!

Another thing, a couple of years ago I met a really nice French guy called Jacques - he was good looking, fun, sense of humour, liked cats (!!). We went out a couple of times just the two of us. Then I made the mistake of introducing him to my friends (who I have known for years) and they commenced --- to tell him awful stories about me, making fun of me cos' i was actually wearing a skirt, the poor guy looked at me and looked at them and eventually did a runner!! My friends, afterwards, said he wasn't worth it because he couldn't take on my friends or me. I heard recently that he had got married and the marriage lasted 2 months!!

Thanks for all your comments - and I loved Eek's rant in General, pity it was closed.

Mobi, you are not 106 years old, yet!!!

This was just a "fun" thread - I am not a sad old sack of a person, I do meet people and have a great group of friends. But I think, when you get to my age, I am now late forties instead of mid forties, you start to think back and regret some things (but not all) and then you look forward and think "wow, where have the last 20 years gone".

I have had acute bronchitis for the past ten days and have felt like <deleted> and been lying around and lethargic, no energy etc. until yesterday afternoon - that furry thing brought in a lizard, a great big lizard (ok about 3 cm long) all wriggly and running fast around my hall. Patsy jumped up and chased the lizard into the bathroom and put Jimbo in the bathroom and closed the door. Ten minutes later - opened the door, cat sitting bath and lizard still alive in a corner so i saved the lizard and threw it out the window onto grass. See, you don't only have lizards in Thailand.

Hope all is well. And Raro, I do not have a big butt.....

God, just re-read all that i have written and i sound like a really selfish, self-interested person!!

Sorry, I am quite a nice, normal person - with a big heart.

Well statistically you have at least another 30 years to go, so I would say, do the things you always wanted to do but never did for whatever reason. Don't think you are too old to get to know a new potential partner in your life, it happened to my mother who is much older than you. Have seen some TV programs where people in their sixties and seventies were very much in love with their new partner. Age is just a number, beauty is something else/more than looking slim/sexy or have a nice bum as is so heavily promoted by the sexist media.

The question therefore is: Do you still wear skirts (Mini preferable) and could you post a snap of yourself whilst wearing one.

Well here we go.....

I had jet lag at the time, twice!!!!!

But you havent seeen the rest of my wonderful body!!

That was the only one i could find, i can assure yôu all that i look ok when awake----

and i have freckles... and Jimmy looks ok----

Oh shit......

And my so called friend that took that photo is now vetoed...

If you cut out these conditions'' 5 million, plus a diamond ring set in white gold, house on a nice beach '' I might consider a proposal.

you can keep the cat

Patsy! You know whats funny, thats kindof how i pictured you. Well..actually not sleeping like that, lol, but as a good looking 40 something lady. (..although i have to say the position you are lying in isnt really showing you off in the best way ) Im pretty sure you get mistaken for younger.

Love the pic. So cute.

Patsy, if you are serious about finding a companion, are you brave enough to try speed dating or net dating? Ive never tried it myself, but I knew one man in his late 30's that did. He put an extremely honest account of who he was and what he was looking for (he said that there was no point looking for the right partner on the net and not being 100% honest. Good call i think). His criteria at first sounded to me to be a weird concept, things like saying he is looking for marriage material, someone who would want to think about starting a family after about a year of marriage, someone within a certain age and wage and education bracket, etc. Was quite strong. But, he did in fact find his wife from doing that, and the did go on to have a baby daughter. If down the line i find myself in a similar situation as you, its something i would give some thought to. THe only thing that worries me are the potential weirdos.... So..if u do decide to try it..read up on security tips and pls be careful!

patsy...you look great, babe...quite the celtic lass. please have more confidence because I'm sure that you'll find what yer lookin' for...

Nice natural picture Patsy and I still think you should not try too hard.

Interesting ideas Eek mentions and I would suspect you are a good judge of character and are used to dealing with 'wierdo's' on here

Good luck anyway

Dave

Thank god i'm not dribbling... I have got rid of the picture taker, he also took one of me in the bath showing off my bikini white bits.

See how my cat loves me?!!

Eek, i have tried the internet dating scene - it is not for me, I like to meet people in the flesh (so to speak), you never know if they smell, or have a terrible stutter, or can not string two words together.

Doing the twist comes into mind - i can twist right down but have found that others cant.

So what does Patsy do? She goes out yesterday and buys herself a new TV with all the bells. Meeting a friend from Nashville to carry it home and hopefully install it.

It's got a four year "if i do something silly" warranty. Sony, flat screen, HD ready, yummy - better than a man!!!!!

Then i can really watch CSI, Deperate Houswifes, all in English cos' i got a little button on my gizmo and i can watch in Bi-canal - French or English. Nip Tuck comes to mind.

But in my new TV land - I shall always come back here, just to annoy the pants off you lot!!!

its so cute how you both fall asleep together
