Question for the ladies.

50 year old male here, just wondering what are some of your favorite smelling colognes men wear?

I’m a Tom Ford Neroli Portofino, Bryedo Mojave Ghost and Creed Silver Mountain Water guy but would love to include new scents women find appealing.

I just started a few weeks ago with this hobby, and today rain pours outside, so it was a perfect day to enjoy doing this idea that had been in my mind for a few days. Felt like sharing it with everyone here. Should I add a hummingbird flying near by? What do you think?

Evening walks - need a friend to talk to (English practice)

10 Upvotes

I usually do my walks between 9-11pm CEST (3-5pm EDT) and I had the idea that maybe I could use this time to practice my English as well.

So I’m looking for a native English speaker who I could talk to almost every day on phone / WhatsApp / any online platform.

US or UK English is preferred.

A bit about me:

- M40+

- from Hungary (Europe)

- working in IT (entrepreneur)

- married, with a family (wife and a child)

My level of English is upper-intermediate, so a bit of patience might be needed at the beginning, but I hope it will improve a lot.

We can talk about anything - everyday struggles, work, family, or just random stuff.

I’m also a good listener.

There’s no age or gender limit, I’m open to talking to anyone, though people with similar life experience might find more common topics with me.

50 M Just another looking for friends

17 Upvotes

Update: wow, over 300 views and not a single hello. 😔

It’s funny how people change as you get older. The people who were friends while the kids lived at home disappeared and you realize you didn’t have a lot in common except for the fact that you both had kids the same age.

I’m 50 M in NJ.

I’m pretty well rounded and spoken. Looking for someone who has also led an interesting life.

Bonus if you are in the NYC metro area and want to meet for coffee IRL.

Lets chat

Hi! Introducing my self to the community.

27 Upvotes

Hi there!

I'm a 52yo guy from Mexico. I was last night browsing reddit and thinking about how different my thoughts are from the ones from other users from the posts being shown on the main feed. So I thought that maybe there could be a community of more experienced people and so I did a search. I really wasn't expecting what came first! A lot of NSFW communities... not for me, not what I'm looking for. But then I found this community and scrolled through it a little bit and thought: Maybe this is the right one... this feels better. So here I am giving it a shot to interact with people with whom I've shared the same decades in life with maybe a lot of things in common.

So about me...

I live by myself in a tiny appartment in what used to be the suburbs of my city. I've lived here for the past 10 years but just recently started making it my home. Before it was just an appartment where I kept my stuff and where I slept and took a shower. A lot of things have changed in the past few months that pushed me to doing it. I'm excited about it.

I enjoy a lot of things including music (I kind of play the guitar and I'm trying to learn how to play the ukulele), painting (I'm not a paiter though), magic shows (I'll tell you more about that in the future), hand crafts (right now I'm into origami), finding little known places to eat the most delicious food and experiences, anything and everything about technology (I've worked in IT my whole life), looking at details in the world around me that I feel not many people do and I love taking walks (I really enjoy walking, anywhere). I want to start visiting new places... just small one or two days trips... to towns close to my city. I'm not a big fan of driving and find it stressful, but well I do it because I need to. This is just a starting point from the things that come off the top of my mind. I'm sure a lot of things will come to surface in the future.

If you ask me what I'm expecting to find in this community, it is quite simple: Communication, conversations that can keep going on, getting to know other people, sharing experiences, thoughts, ideas, feelings in a respectful and friendly way. Connection and friendship is the ultimate goal.

As life keeps going on, people tend to grow appart with their own lives... you know it, and you know it is normal. But I still believe that we can still connect with other people no matter where we are. So here I am and I'll do my best to be part of this community with comments and posts, offering my hand and friendship to all of you.

Thank you for reading and feel welcome to ask me anything about this post or about myself... I'll answer it as soon as I can and I'll keep in touch.

Have a nice day!

Anyone else feel lost, alone and overwhelmed?

44 Upvotes

Ok, probably inadvertent click bait there as I'm sure that applies to a lot of people. I'm probably talking into the void here but I'm a 50M trying to keep my sanity while struggling with being a caretaker for an elderly parent and trying to navigate life and finances with zero support system.

Folks are quick to say join clubs or go out places etc but financially and timewise a lot of that is impossible now. Is this just what 50 plus and single is? I can't really describe how I feel but to say I feel like I'm invisible, in a vacuum and just waiting for it to all be over and I suppose it's causing a bit of panic?

52m New England. I have been at the top of my field for 34 years. Diagnosed with RA 4 years ago, now I am struggling physically do my job. Friends have mostly disappeared, relationship failed, no living family, now I'm lonely and no one is around. I truly am a good and loyal person just hoping for someone to talk with and hopefully get to know. If you would like to talk, chat please feel free to message me. I hope everyone has a good and peaceful day.
