Yep, this is exactly why. There were a few people in my company fired for "things not looking right" even though it was questionable if anything actually happened. Don't want to even get close to that kind of situation, it's just not worth it.

Hahaha, I know the feeling. I used to hang out with my plastic surgeon, who is hot as shit, but I just cant get past the age gap mentally. He's one year younger than my mom. So a 22 year age gap. I just can't do it. Which sucks because he's such an awesome, successful, good looking, sweet, guy.

I guess I should mention my wife is 8 years younger than me, but mentally she's WAY more mature than I am! So it balances out.

There is a 16 year gap between myself and my gf. The youngest I ever went out with was a 21 year age gap. I couldn't handle it as she was closer to my daughter's age than mine. I broke it off after the 3rd date.

We loved hitting the rooftop bars in NOLA. Good times.

Guy I'm talking to right now is 8.5 years older than me. I'd say that's a normal age range. 10 years older or 6 months younger than me, I would date.

And yes I pay my own way. No strings attached. Unless I say so.

Interesting. I'm a smoker, we are a dying breed though. It's more of a rarity to see people smoking these days. I am a smoker's smoker though. Cigars, cigarettes, pipes, etc. I'd say we are pretty much on point with everything else aside from the motorcycle. I'm a danger to myself as it is, I'd prefer not to be danger to everyone around me as well. I just know how much I like speed; owning a motorcycle would only accentuate this....and lessen my life span.

Good list though. Not disappointed that I asked.

This thread is a great start to see how others do things. Start at page 1. Lots of good stuff contained herein.

Yeah... I give myself 3 days before someone is scraping me from the asphalt.

Terrible photos, including one berated mirror selfie as defined as a no no in this thread. Trust it went to the audience of ONE prior to posting here...

First photo is wedding party last summer, lighting not the greatest but middle is me.

Second, mirror terror.

Third, with a group at a work trip in Hawaii.

I appreciate it, I am NO FAN of my own photos and dont often share them. Just genuinely curious if the hairless one at the bottom is considered a better look by the female perspective. So far its been unanimously no... but, everyone is different.

Felt awkward, might delete later

We think the same way. I leave mine up for a few minutes then delete. Feels very awkward.

These are great! You actually look great both ways. Though I prefer clean shaven, you actually look really good with the long facial hair.

And I don't say I'm hot...I'm just a guy that does ok. I'm an engaging conversationalist with slightly above average looks.

Here is a quick one.

And down now.

Ah, too late....

Thank you very much. At least the feedback is consistent!

See what you guys did... this is going to go straight to his head now... Looking like hell man! (just trying to keep you modest)

Now I am feeling same way, and I just posted another picture of her in the "Cool pics" thread. A bit like exhibitionism - I got carried away.

Going to delete now.

Left a picture up over in the "Cool pics" thread...for now. I don't want it to seem like I'm fishing for compliments, but on the other hand after 28 years (2.5 of dating, 25.5 years of marriage) I am still quite taken with her and tell her often she can still make my heart skip a beat when I see her.

MKSixer · 02-02-2021, 02:28 PM

Here is the current GF. Masked so I don't feel bad.

And down.

She's tied up, we just can't see it, right? That expression screams "Help!!"

You, MK and I are much the same. I don't like to fish and am uncomfortable being an exhibitionist.

For what its worth, your wife is beautiful and you are a lucky man.
