Hee! Good one, Tigs. I may call you “Tigs,” right? Anyway, there is no worse sensation than an old, bony hand on one’s knee. Will you be writing about your encounter with the herring-smelling gentleman? He sounds promising!

Thanks guys, I feel a bit better. I think.

I’ve ditched the Rub A535 (is it just me or does it look like it says ‘Rub Ass’?)and repeated the words “take it as a compliment” over and over.

In a bizarre twist, yesterday I had another old guy try and hit on me! He smelled of herrings.

I was divorced a few years back and had to relearn everything. At first, I wondered why, in a bar teaming with beautiful women, only the lone pug-faced girl would walk over and express interest. It kept happening again and again.

Then it dawned on me: The hot women are not used to having to go after the guy–the guy always goes after them! Duh!

Now I have the pug-faced girl introduce me to her hot friends. LOL

I’m not sure what the flip-side of all this is for women though. Sorry.

Maybe you should stop wearing Rub A535. That attracts old men like flies…

Are you sure that the joint you’re frequenting is a bar, not the senoir home’s café? Anyway, I should think that compliments from the old guy weigh more than compliments from the young guy, since the old guy has seen so many women and probably become quite the connoisseur?
(A word of consolation: My best ever compliment came from a gay guy…)

one of the advantages of being old is you can be flirtatious and cheeky and get away with it…:)))

Hey, us old guys need love, too.

I have this same issue. Old men seem to adore me for some mysterious reason. They tell me I remind them of some teacher they had in 1930 who they had a crush on, or whatever.

I guess senility strikes in different ways.

You weren’t doing too poorly until you popped Keith Richard’s picture up there. Now I know what you mean!
