I am no neophyte to single life, having spent several years thusly in my 40's. Following a 4 year relationship, which shall be referred to as simply " the mistake by the lake", I found myself once again bereft of a snoring body in the bed. A brief reclusive episode which consisted of many days at the beach and many nights of debauchery with gay neighbours has led me back into the maelstrom of online dating. Things haven't changed much, nor have the people, nor have the pictures which are by now at least 10 years older than their original claim. Everyone is still startlingly down to earth and easy going and snide comments from me regarding the laws of gravity or the intrinsic attraction of a complicated soul seem to have little impact upon this preponderance of blandness.
Ages are now misrepresented to the degree that men seen in Shopper's Drug Mart on seniors day are now in their mid 40's and endomorphic body types seem more and more to qualify as average.
What does seem to be a new and somewhat disturbing phenomenon however, is the reliance upon texting as a sexual encounter. Given the degree to which acronyms count as words when texting.......I look forward to many more requests to CUDOYRSELF, to which I can reply ............NGFH.
Next time......the best and worst.
