I'm 55 and just came out of a10 year relationship. My children are grown and gone. I just finished college. I'm interested in the American Civil War, history, science, early civilization, geology, art history, no drinking, drugging or smoking. Where do I meet a good man? I love to laugh and enjoy life. My daughter's friends think I look 40. Alright! I've been divorced for 25 years. I don't want to spend the rest of my life being alone.

Believe it or not, I had a dear lady friend who lost her husband 15 years before I met her. We did lots of things together including trips and shows and included the opera.. We went to Disney and although for savings slept in the same room we used in different beds.
Five years after she and I met, she met a guy through her church that lost his wife. She came to me and asked if I thought she should marry him one day and I told her absolutely. She deserved as much happiness as she could get. She followed my advise and invited me and my wife (yes we were all best friends) to her wedding. We were honored. She and her new hubby remained happily married for 6 years before she developed Althimers and does't know anyone anymore. Those last 6 years was wonderful according to her children from her fist marriage.
So go visit your church women without partners clubs and or other clubs in your town that will introduce you to someone that might be the answer to your prayers. Stay away from On line groups that claim to find what you are looking for because they want you to pay them for their service.
You might find someone you enjoy chatting with but be sure to keep em where they live and No visits are to be permitted. If on the other hand you are introduced to someone physically that you knew from on line. He might be Mr Right. Just be cautious.

I would suggest getting involved in community service groups, church, hobby groups, or other special interest clubs. You should meet some interesting people there.
I am 53 and met my 55 year old fiance here on answers. I answered one of his questions and he emailed me to talk about the question. We found out that we were in the same age group and it grew from there. For that reason I am not afraid to suggest meeting someone on line. Just be very careful about giving out personal information.

Frankly Rosebud, your interests are boring. Don't dwell on them so much until you know a guy better. Or disguise it like "I enjoy visiting historic places" or "I like art" or something similar.
Here is the answer to your question:
1. Church
2. Library
3. Mall
4. Golf Town
5. Group dance lessons
6. Job Fairs
You might also consider these ideas:
1. Groom immaculately
2. Help someone you don't know every day
3. Honor your parents
Good Luck

Well Hon welcome to my world! You got a few years on me (I'm 41), but tum we are truly sailing the same love boat. I don't look any where near my age and I sure as hell don't act like it. I like to play and have fun. Alrighty the last man I had (age 28) was a friends with benefits and that was a wonderful relationship. It lasted a year and like your guy he too ran off with a younger girl and it didn't work out and now he is too ashamed to return to me. Not that I really care. I don't, but it's a shame nonetheless. Men my age, your age aren't really up our alley I don't think. Not unless they are like us in spirit and they are out there, but damn it if they aren't looking for younger women LOL. We can't seem to win for losing. I really think it is going to boil down to doing something I really DON'T want to do because I'm about as anti social as one can be, but I will have to get into a circle of friends. Start having parties of my own etc. I've done the night clubs, churches, parks, and online dating services paid for and free JOKE! Please for the love of banana milk if you find something out let me know ^^ Best of Wishes! EDIT: I'd pay real money to see Clover in about 20 years! Would LOVE to throw her post in her face on this topic and then LMAO!

In church, through friends, or social groups, try volunteering. Be very, very careful when corresponding on line, there's a lot of crazy people out there. Good for you,that you want to date. I think that's awesome and I wish you the very best...

The dating sites are pretty good. That's how I inadvertantly met my future husband whom I am married to now. It's great fun and you meet alot of good people. Just be careful, there's always a bad apple in the crowd.

Girlfriend!!!!! Online dating... I am serious.. try e-harmony... it goes through so many aspects of what you are like and what you want in a man.. after they match you by this.. then you can look at their physcial appearence and see if you feel that spark :) good luck sweetie!

Indulge in your interests and hobbies... The right guy will find you if you are patient. You will find people with your same interests if you do what interests you. (ie. You wont find your dream guy at a bar if you don't drink...)
