However, if you hear about better places to meet and greet and I am open to it.
Which online sites have you tried?
I have tried:
Match - It it worked very well for me. Very nice women looking for someone for something more than a casual relationship.
OKC - It it was okay. You never knew what was going to happen. Great girls to bunny boilers.
Bumble - It it was okay - see OKC.
Tinder - My mistake. In so many ways.

I would seek out a church with a high population of singles and/or over 50 year olds, single or not. It's a safe and genuine way to meet people. Not suggesting to begin going to church as a way to meet men, but to broaden your social network - which can help you to meet men! Of course this suggestion is only for people that are interested in being part of a church community, I realize that many people are not at all interested in this.

Yes but like all men in their 50s, you are looking for 20- and 30-somethings not 50-somethings like OP.
Nope. My kids are in their early 20s and dating that young is not for me. The youngest woman I have gone out with was 46 and my last girlfriend was 52.
I like to date single moms (age range 48-55) who kids are at least in high school.
I have the most in common with these women and they seem the most interested in me. Thank God.

It is slim pickings to begin with because in this age group so many men (a) as pointed above, are looking strictly for younger women, (b) have let themselves go, or (c) are only interested in playing the field while their equipment still works...
I'm slowly accepting the possibility that I should give up on looking for a good relationship and being content with the occasional FWB, preferably a slightly younger one like the one I have now.[/quote]
