achingformature 11-22-2004, 01:19 AM Where does a younger hunk find a mature loving lady? I hear all this talk, but in real life it doesn't seem true. It seems if you're not old and don't have a million bucks you're outta luck.
Where/how do you meet kind ladies like you would on here? (yes, I'm talking about you Kimmy) ;)
I've been reading for a while, just thought I'd drop by.
yellowrose 11-22-2004, 01:39 AM Well, 200 women were going to reply until you said "Kimmy"... oh, well... too bad. :D :rolleyes:
achingformature 11-22-2004, 01:42 AM :p
I guess you answered my question. I should learn to keep my mouth shut! :(
Charlotte 11-22-2004, 01:50 AM Well, achingformature, I suspect a fair number of mature ladies are probably at the computer wondering where to find a younger hunk.... :confused:
Looks like some on ageless met through gaming and themed chats...for me it was in the reptile hobbyist community.
Do you have any hobbies or interests where you might find clubs or activities that will give you an opportunity to interact with mature women?
yellowrose 11-22-2004, 02:06 AM Seriously.... for starters, fill out your profile with more info. Then post your picture in the ageless picture album. Then post more on the threads so we can get to know your personality. The more women know about you, the easier it might be to get to know the women. Welcome to ageless.... ;)
whiterose 11-22-2004, 04:33 AM Another tip... you might want to consider changing your username. Why not just be yourself and let people get to know you, rather than adopting a username that seems to indicate that your only goal is to snag an older woman?

ROFL! This is too good. :D
ScarletHawke 11-23-2004, 01:53 PM Or, "toyboyuser4ever"? ;)
1love 11-23-2004, 02:29 PM I saw that! Excellent self-moderation Sally! I blinked my eyes and it disappeared... :)
whiterose 11-23-2004, 02:48 PM Well, now let's give credit where credit's due, Sally. ;)
whiterose 11-23-2004, 03:09 PM An UZI???? Now, I don't think I am that mean. ;)
Kristin 11-23-2004, 08:50 PM I think you're the little sister everyone would love to have.
Well, me at least.

Me thinks you were thinking that I was saying that I don't know what an UZI is. I DO! I was saying that surely you don't think I'm that mean. :p
ScarletHawke 11-23-2004, 09:05 PM 'Scuse me, is that an Uzi? :eek:
whiterose 11-23-2004, 09:43 PM My "Bela" is much more handsome than that guy. :p

'Twas seriously hijacked, wasn't it, my dear Nessa! LOL :p
MrsJonesolet 11-23-2004, 10:03 PM think how poor achingforit is gonna feel
achingformature 11-24-2004, 12:23 AM thanks for you help all, and I will change my name to "sarcasticyoung"
yellowrose 11-24-2004, 12:19 PM I guess our rules about hijacking threads and being a welcoming site to newbies only applys to most posters and not all. I am not amused at the turn this OP's thread took. I think it is good to educate him but to go on and make fun..... just not my idea of fun. But that's just me. :rolleyes:
ms683 11-24-2004, 01:29 PM http://www.agelesslove.com/boards/images/icons/icon3.gifCan we all just get along?
yellowrose 11-24-2004, 05:40 PM Sure... no reason not to!... ;)

I absolutely agree with you Yellowrose....belittling of someone that had finally decided to post..(after reading for some time he mentioned) was totally unnecessary..I saw him reading the post yesterday and I just felt embarassment for him....I really didn't expect him to reply...I for one do not think his ID is that bad..to ache for the love of someone older shouldn't be condemned in my opinion.
If people feel the need to remark why not hit the old random thought thread instead of making fun in the posters thread...all people have feelings..sometimes I believe people forget that around here
special K 11-24-2004, 09:03 PM For the record...
In a pm, "aching" is okay, just a little put off by some of the replies to his thread. He's a great guy, by the way...he genuinely meant "of the soul and heart" when he chose his first screen name, which I'm sure now after the critiques, will probably be changed.
WELCOME ACHING....WE WANT YOU TO HANG AROUND AND POST< OKAY??!?!? Good call, Foxy and Yellowrose:) We LOVE newbies and want them to feel welcome!

yellowrose 11-25-2004, 12:06 AM There is nothing wrong with critiquing a person's user name or even saying you hate it, especially when one gives the reason it pushed a button.
But to go on and on and take over a thread, is simply not what Ageless usually stands for. All the people that posted before me are good, fun people and do not, at least as far as I know, have a mean bone in their body (well one might :D ).
It just took off and was, to ME, getting inappropriate or rude to the OP. Again, this person is new here. Let's welcome him and give him the benefit of the doubt.
It sounds like from what you said Special K that he is a good guy. So I will say it again....
Welcome to the group..Aching... I hope you won't take any of the teasing seriously and let us know more about you. The people here are really good folks.
PS... here lately I have been "achey" too. Happy Holidays.
MrsJonesolet 11-25-2004, 12:33 AM you guys are right......we really can't know someones intent by the name they choose.....at least not in this case because it could have two meanings.
I'm sorry if I offended the OP or anyone else
Tinkabell 11-25-2004, 01:13 AM Yellow rose you are tops!!
Sometimes people have different ways of expressing themselves and sometimes though it may offend others.... and accumulate sarcasm.... It probably wasn't meant to do that.
Sorry achingformatre from everyone I don't think anyone really meant any harm and were just joking around..... hopefully you will stick around.......
And in answer to your original thread....... Just be patient... It will happen... don't think about it too much... If its really what you want give it wings to fly away and it sure will come back to you when you least expect it!!
Tinks:)
yellowrose 11-25-2004, 10:17 PM No, Nessa, it definitely is not for wussies.. but you know there is a 'wussie' in all of us.
We all have buttons. And when one is new and see all the great post here and then we see our post in lights on the WORLD WIDE WEB, we think that we are going be welcomed to the fold like others are. So I think it smarts more for the 1st time poster esp. a young poster.
Besides, I saw your posts, trying to get things back on track.... :D I KNOW what a sweetie you really are so you can't hide it from me. :D
whiterose 11-26-2004, 09:44 AM I have had to moderate this thread and will be PM'ing individuals shortly.
Everyone, I know how easy it is to assume something about a poster's intentions. My original post to this member was to tell him seriously that his username may deter him from meeting women here. I never intended it to become a reason to debate the intention of his uername.
Let's allow this thread to get back on track as much as possible. Aching, if you'd like for your name to be changed, just send a PM to Jo-Admin.
MrsJonesolet 11-26-2004, 10:14 AM I really hope he comes back.....not only to set the record straight but also because if he would like to have a relationship with an older woman this is a very good place for honest advice on the subject.
Don't take all of this personal aching.....view it as a lesson learned about how sensitive some of us are about true intentions
it's all good really!
Yavor 11-26-2004, 10:42 AM We just showed how mature we actually are.
yellowrose 11-26-2004, 12:16 PM doesn't really care about the person he wants to boink do you think he does?
Very true, Nessa, and his user name could be taken that way. But when I read his actual post, I could tell that he was talking about something else. He wanted to meet an OW for a relationship, it appeared to me. However, just goes to show how 1st impressions can be strong and misleading.
I am glad, things have turned around on this thread. Again, I wish the guy would come back and tell us more about himself. I don't know what else we can do to prove our good intentions. Oh well, what will be will be.
Genevieve 11-27-2004, 10:34 AM Actually, my initial thought was that if aching was interested in communicating with one particular member here, he could have simply PM'd her instead of starting a thread.. but.. that's just me. :cool:
yellowrose 11-27-2004, 01:41 PM Sally, if you felt my post was inappropriate.. just PM me (others do) and I will be glad to change it. The last thing I want to do is hurt anyones feelings. I noted that he laughed at my post and got it. I later posted what he should do to get to know people.
When I later posted about the threads turn, I was not thinking of or pointing out ANY ONE POSTER, it was the NUMBER of posts added together that bothered me. But again, that's just me and there is no law against anyone else having a different opinion.
One thing that I am in the process of learning here at Ageless is to let go of my desire to ALWAYS BE RIGHT. When my posts get 'edited' or I am requested to change something, my TYPE A, SVP personality kicks in and wants to argue about how RIGHT I am. However, what is more important here, for me to prove that I am right, or to sometimes eat what seems like to me humble pie, for the serenity and cohesiveness of the entire group?
Just some things to think about.... OK?
yellowrose 11-27-2004, 03:23 PM Opps. sorry Sally... I should have been more clear. ONLY the first paragraph was SPECIFICALY for YOU.
The rest was just my personal thoughts on how we tend to spend so much time defending ourselves (like I am doing here). I was just sharing my struggles with disagreeing or not on the threads. If it helps someone thats good and if not.. then that is good too. :D
yellowrose 11-27-2004, 03:58 PM SALLY... TAKE DEEP BREATHS... THERE THATS GOOD... NOW PM ME YOUR CREDIT CARD INFORMATION.... THAT'S RIGHT... JUST PM YELLOWROSE... "must PM Yellowrose.... must PM Yellowrose"..
:p
last1standing 11-27-2004, 04:18 PM For better or worse…and despite our attempts to maintain social correctness…Ageless is kind of like the U.S. Army. There’s “the right way”, “the wrong way”….and then there's “the Ageless way”, and the orientation process for some new members will be bumpier than for others. For example, if:
A guy comes here displaying an attitude of superiority over women in general
A guy implies (in a post or even just by his choice of member name) that he’s mainly trolling for a sexual “sugar momma”
A woman or man comes here looking for us to “sign the death certificate” on his/her marriage and validate their choice to carry on an affair with someone else
…then some unpleasantness on the boards – along with the attending “busy night” for us Mods -- is pretty much a fact of life. But the OP in this thread wasn’t that easy to peg up front, and the fact that most have decided not to judge his intentions so quickly…to allow for the fact that there are so many pick-up sights out there masquerading as support sites that it’s tough for someone to come here without “needing a bath” so-to-speak…says volumes about just how great a membership we have here.
