Men that age hit on me every now and then on here!

They are subtle, though. First they PM me out of the blue, saying hi, etc. I am nice and say hi back, and let the chat go where it leads. Then eventually they ask if I am gay or bi. I say no, I like women. Then the chat usually tapers off! LOL! Some men are so shallow! First they want to talk, then they abandon me because I won't take it up the ass! LOL!

@JoyfulSilence 😂 Well, this guy came into the law office I work at!

@SW-User Well, at least he did not know you were already taken. I know it probably is creepy, but maybe it makes you feel good to be noticed like that, too?

I have never been hit on by a single woman before. I have had married women show interest in me on here, though. They are like the old gay men, they say hi to me out of the blue on here. Most are tame and friendships develop, and just friendships. Yet some are quite flirty and I have to interrupt them and ask them what their husband thinks of all this? That usually silences them!

@SW-User It is rare. It is nice to be noticed. But also really hurts at times, since she is taken. Why do women torture me like that at times? But it very rare, very rare. Usually I am virtually ignored by everyone on here and offline. Except for a few people. But usually I have to reach out to them and they are just replying. It is very rare that anybody would go out of their way to reach out to me, or comment on my posts. But it is what it is.

@JoyfulSilence I cannot believe you are single! You are awesome!

@SW-User I have been single my whole life. It is what it is. I could write a book on it, but frankly I am tired of analyzing myself, so I won't. It is tedious, draining, depressing, and sad to do.

It has been easier on here to interact with women, since I can actually write to them and cultivate a friendship. Offline there is no way to do this. The only other places I interact with women are at work, but I keep my distance (I have my reasons -- it is a long story). Nobody has ever shown interest at work, anyway. I do not have any friends or social life off of this site, to be honest.

So that's how it is.

Thanks for thinking I am awesome! You are awesome, too!
