Flings, Fails, and Forties Tales

80 men around the world.


25/04/2025

Now I’ve decided that there is a 99.9% chance that he will be on a no show on the video chat tonight, so I have relaxed again. Admittedly if he calls I will be so stressed that he won’t like me and realise that I really am much too old for him.

 

However, for now I have gone back to the drawing board. Or the dating board perhaps is more accurate.

 

I am pretty certain that the site I am on is really a waste of my time, even a new friend has advised me to look at different options. Of the guys within a certain age group of myself 75% not my type 15% only after sex with no conversation 5% fake and 5% not interested in me. 

 

So before I leave I have decided to go a little crazy and just like anyone who looks remotely possible and see what happens. Up until now my likes have been extremely sparing. I think I’ve done it maybe 5 times. Most of the time they are fake or they have already found someone and are no longer using the site. 

 

So unsurprisingly it is 10.18 and no sign of a video call. I know you are all as shocked as I am about this 😆🙄.

 

So how many catfish does that make now. Lets recap:

 

Fake man of my dreams

An exotic dancer

A pilot

The engima 

and now the Danish/Swedish chap

 

So lets see where this new approach takes us.

 

I'm thinking of making a new game out of this online dating. 80 men around the world.

 

I want to see how many countries of origin/ancestry I can tick off chatting to 80 different men.

 

How many do you think I can manage?

So far I have managed English, Irish, Scottish, Australian (somehow the dating app had sent him my profile despite the fact he loved in Australia, Romanian, French, Swiss and Dutch 50/50 in one man. Brazilian/indian in another man. That's not bad going. 

Obviously I can only count the men that have actually discussed it. It's not the sort of thing I tend to ask in case I accidentally offended someone. 

 

So lets see how I do shall we?
