... or people that have been single in their old age.
What happens when you lose that youthful "innocence"
I know a lot of ladies and some men are totally dotted on while that have that young "bushy-tailed" look. But what happens when you were that person but you got old?
Do guys still dot over you with the urge to protect you from harms way... protect your "innocence." Does the quality of people you attract dwindle?

I'm pretty sure I've lost any youthful innocence, heck, even any older innocence. But I still love people, love life, and live that way. I have awesome people in my life, and those that I run across that aren't.... I don't keep around.
What are you talking about with this "dot" stuff? I can't even pick your meaning up from the context.
I guess I've lost that youthful innocence if I ever had it, but I still retain an air of naivete--guess I'll never lose it, and it does make men behave more protectively towards me.
As for dating--yes it has gotten very confusing. Online dating is almost worthless for any woman over 50 that I can tell, but I talked to a male friend today who is also trying to online date at 52, and he is extremely attractive, but he's having trouble getting dates too. It made me feel a bit better, b/c he's always been the handsomest man I ever knew. He has had 5 women going at once, which is why I have no interest in him, lol. I meet more men while out, but often a very flirty exchange does not lead to a date--I don't know if I turn them off or if we're just all a lot more cautious. But then when I see them again I still see signs of interest, so I think it's just the age. Yes, it's harder to get a date these days--I'm just not as purty! But then they're not as handsome either--that's ok--my tastes have changed over to thinking that bald guys are pretty hot!
yeah the dating pool at our older age gets smaller. Not sure why.. but I guess it is because we either lose interest or the pool just isnt as good as it once was. I look at my options and wonder sometimes LOL... and I would think I am a pretty good looking guy.. but hey.. I may have a biased opinion here LOL
