Death at 55

As a relatively new member and possibly nievely putting my exact true age into my profile (I'm a spritely and youthful 57 btw) I'm blown away by the number of other users who choose '55'as their cut off range.

Okay I know you literally have to draw a line somewhere but I'm wondering if I need to loose a few years to squeeze back under the high bar.??

What do other people think. Perhaps I'm best leaving it as is, no offense will be taken ??

Please don't lie about your age. It's blatantly disrespectful to people's wishes.

Why be deceitful? If I found out someone had lied to get around filters/my preferences then it would be game over.

OP your cut off is 65, which is not that much older than you. If you think about why that is, maybe other people have similar reasons for their upper age limit

Yeah.

Lots of people do lie* about their age, and it's a hard no for me for that reason - what else are they lying about?

* I don't mind "lying" for anonymity - that is, putting something that's basically true down as your birth date. I do it myself - I've made my Fab birthday less than a month wrong. But no one gives a shit if you say your birthday is January when it's February. People mind a lot more when you say you were born in 1995 when you were born in 1985.

I was being slightly ironic when suggesting I adjust my age. The key topic was why do people choose 55 as the cut off. It's as if human nature is people only work in units of 5.

I won't change it...I'm not into deceipt for those who mentioned this.

Some choose 35. Some 45. Some 55.

Some can't be arsed and choose 18-99.

At the end of the day it is what it is.

You won't change their minds.

But as a previous poster asked, why are you preferences up to age 65 ? That's your preference, others have theirs.

I'm older than you are and have never once had a conversation about my age on here. Some people complain about 50 or 45 being a cut off point but I was 52 when I signed up and it has never been an issue.

Simple really for me....if I were younger then my upper age limit would be set younger. If say I was 20ish then I wouldn't want anyone in their 50's

The problem lies not with those who set the age to 55 and not with you for being 57....

The fault lies in the essentialist nature of society and it's attempts at categorising ....

So .... instead of being : good looking, fit, a great laugh, caring, attentive, horny , open to new ideas and a great socialiser.... you become .

The fact that people lie about their age is exactly the reason I have my upper limit where is now. Too many take years off to cheat through filters.

If you cannot be truthful about your age why would you expect anyone to meet you and think you would tell the truth about anything else.

When I was 10 our cat Rastus was run over by a truck.

We were distraught and the suggestion of a new cat was out of the question.

The following week a neighbour called by with a kitten.

We loved Toby for 17 years..

It doesn't matter how they feel or act,the fact is their age is what it is. Taking years off to bypass people's filters is pathetic and sad.

And yes it would make me not want to go father with those who do, especially when they take a lot off their age.My profile my choice,just like your choice is to ignore they lied.

It's due to people lying about their age that I lowered my age range. At first I was wanting to meet men 50 to 60 but ended up with men who were obviously well over 60 which is not what I wanted. After lowering my age range I discovered I actually like younger men so am now quite content.

Yes. I also cut off messages in other ways, but I discovered quickly that if I set my filters to "would consider this age under some circumstances" rather than something tighter, I drowned in messages.

Not sure about the increments of 5 but It’s simply statistics - if you plotted the number of people who have very active sex lives and are in the lifestyle it will fit in a normal distribution bell curve - your age and women/ couples that want to meet / match those ages are unfortunately on the descending curve, simply reducing in numbers as age increases. There are obviously outliers - young women who have a thing about older men for example. There are women and men who meet at 55, 60, 65 it’s just that there are fewer of them - it’s driven by the factors that are obvious - health issues, hormones, deteriorating self image or desire, lack of libido or just cannot be bothered any more.

You’re a good looking guy and I’d suggest some beneficial changes to your profile if you were asking advice but you’re not.. and I don’t want to get in trouble with the Mods

Not sure about the increments of 5 but It’s simply statistics - if you plotted the number of people who have very active sex lives and are in the lifestyle it will fit in a normal distribution bell curve - your age and women/ couples that want to meet / match those ages are unfortunately on the descending curve, simply reducing in numbers as age increases. There are obviously outliers - young women who have a thing about older men for example. There are women and men who meet at 55, 60, 65 it’s just that there are fewer of them - it’s driven by the factors that are obvious - health issues, hormones, deteriorating self image or desire, lack of libido or just cannot be bothered any more.

You’re a good looking guy and I’d suggest some beneficial changes to your profile if you were asking advice but you’re not.. and I don’t want to get in trouble with the Mods "

Age doesn't really mean much to us. We have met guys well into their 60s who are more fun and have better stamina than guys in their 20s. They could knock the ages off profiles as far as we're concerned we go off the pictures and personalty rather than age.

I think many males are uncomfortable at setting too large an age gap to avoid any unfounded accusations of inappropriate age differences, I certainly am and if I did so then the debate might be to criticice anyone who did

I do understand that there are ladies who seek mature men too

I wouldn’t mind a women younger than me, but really don’t like idea of the ‘daddy’ shit that goes around.

Something a bit more grown up but recognising the age gap but not playing on it like that.

If you lie about your age and sleep with someone who you know wouldn’t sleep with you if they knew the truth, that’s technically consent obtained by deceit and therefore not valid consent.

Would you be happy having sex without consent that was valid?

Don’t look as age being an issue - like all other preferences, some will prefer a certain age, some won’t.

Focus on what you can work on, like your profile rather than use something as an excuse for not getting the interactions you expected after 3 weeks on the site!

I haven’t looked at your profile btw, but people who tend to use something to blame, it’s usually your profile that’s what’s restricting you.

I'm extremely comfortable at not setting a large age gap and it has fuck all to do with other people's perception.

I'm not attracted to young women of a similar age to my daughters so therefore I won't waste my time chatting to them and that's why my lower age limit will always change every year to keep in line with my age and those of my kids.

You started with..


"possibly nievely putting my exact true age into my profile (I'm a spritely and youthful 57 btw) "

Saying you naively put your exact age into profile suggests you regret not lying, it’s a fair assumption that many have made.

Lying on your profile to get around people's preferences is a top tier dick move imo. But you have got me wondering what else on your profile could be abit of a truth stretch.

There will be loads of people here who welcome your age group.

Most of the cut offs are just because you have to choose something or you end up with ages you wouldn't consider. Ours is set at 45, we'd consider upto 55 but we choose the 45-55 ourselves and message them first.

Have you checked how old the people are who are calling their range at 55?

I’m 47. I started 10 years either side but had lots of messages from people who looked older than my dad. Thought 5 years each side was a bit slim so settled on 7 below and 8 above. That’s my reasoning and I move my age range as I get older. Many people have said they don’t so may also be that.

Op, many of us have dropped off the age filters for different reasons.

As I get older, my younger filter shifts but my older one does too.

See who is available to you and cherish them.

Filters are a way to start online.

When meeting people in the flesh at clubs or at socials, you may find things are different.

We get older.

People have their reasons and preferences.

Flow with it. I hope you found some wisdom in the thread to encourage you.

I think there's some truth in this. I set my work alarm for 630, never 629 or 631. When I stay in bed after it I'll be there till 640.
