Today, I received two emails on OkCupid from married men.
The first email was from Saffron4, a 62-year-old man who wrote: “Hi, I’m a married Boston lawyer, early 60’s. are you open to being the friend and lover of an older married man?”
What about that sounds appealing?
My response: “With all do respect, I do not date married men.”
The second person, GreatCatchHere, wrote: “Interesting profile and nice smile.”
And then I looked at his profile:
Granted, he doesn’t say he is looking for romance, but rather, “for new friends.” But, he could do that by volunteering, joining a co-ed sports team, anything else. Instead, he joins a dating site and contacts a single, unmarried woman. Read between the lines.
Then, at the bottom, he says he is looking for a “FWB.”
Just updated my profile and said that I’m not interested in dating a married man unless he is married to me!
What is UP with these old guys hitting on young women? I’m not interested in a 62 year old, married or not! Or the 51 year old who picked me up on the bus, and was surprised to find I am 37 and not under 30. Grrrrrr.
Ok, how is this for irony? Just got a message from a 19-year-old asking if I’d like to have fun with a younger guy.
