My first date in two years was a bomb.

I did some internet dating a while ago, had a couple of intense affairs, but when they didn’t work out I essentially gave up. I couldn’t face any more rejection. I find that I’ve aged out of the dating pool at 66. Men my age want younger women, or at least women who look younger. People tell me I look younger than my age, but I think I look my age. (that pic you see was taken about 5 years ago) Recently I went out with a guy who saw my profile on Yahoopersonals. He’s 62. We were kind of attracted to each other on the first–very short-date, but the second date bombed. He’s a widower for only 3 months who wants to find someone right away, which I think is ridiculous. I don’t really know what went wrong on the second date, just that he seemed intimidated by me, got very wierd and seemed to have to one up me on everything I said. Also, he whipped out a naked picture of his deceased wife–who was 53 by the way and had enormous boobs–and then told me she was built like a “brick s…t house.” Can you believe that? I was glad when the date ended and I think he was too. I’ve kind of given up. I feel I’ll never have sex again .

    Erica, you are not a snob. you are simply
    in a different intellectual/social class
    than this guy. everyone has their limits
    but a non-reader with bad grammar would
    be a deal breaker for this writer. I
    literally cringe when I hear bad grammar. Kate
