It seems to me (and I could be wrong) that the OP isn't interested in entering into a LTR with anyone. He wants to hit it and quit it, because he likes 'variety' and the 'excitement' of meeting someone 'new' each and every 'time' - and, that's his right to want to do so.

However, at his advanced age, it may be more difficult for him to continue to live that kind of dating lifestyle, as most women his age will probably want more than just a 'casual encounter'. I could be wrong about that though.

Hey, here's a shortcut. Get some oxytocin in ya, so you can form real relations to fill that big hole: https://everidis.com/product/biogaia-gastrus/

There's nothing wrong with NSA sex, by the way.

I am not a hundred percent convinced. When I am satisfied, I usually lay off on the ads a bit and can concentrate on other things.

My looks are already gone.

Plenty of women know the "real me." I think these women are referred to as "friends."

This sounds about right.

Unfortunately it took until only recently until I started to get good at it.

Women my age probably want someone who drives and has a career, or at least a job, none of which interests me.

And I am not really attracted to women my own age, though I do settle from time to time, usually for one night only.

But an LTR is such a foreign concept that I am not sure I am interested but also it doesn't really matter what I want, I feel like I have been completely excluded from participating.

Last non-Craigslist hookup was in 2003. Of course the scammers and bot ads are still continuing unabated as usual. Just another fatal blow in the death of the free internet. This is the most despondent I have felt in years.


What do you mean, banning IP accounts, and how do you know?


So does this mean that you might be forced to have conversations like a normal person of the human race?

This is something I gathered from someone else's experience. They are banning the IP, not just the email. Standard fare. I might eventually have to get some proxies for some other use, in that case I might do the multiple emails thing but hopefully I can find some way to automate the process.

I do. Just none that ever lead anywhere.

(the only public events I ever attend are concerts and I have severe hearing damage so I don't meet many women this way)

This is one of the most interesting threads I've read.

SMA comes across as an intelligent, but socially different, individual.

Possibly, probably?, those two things are related.
