What is it? Have we as older adults lost the ability to meet each other without believing we are just to be sexual encounters for each other? Have we lost the ability to believe that love is still possible or do we cling onto past hurt and failure like an extra skin to give us a reason for lack of commitment?
It appears as though everyone is either on facebook or the single sites, hoping to meet someone but with no commitment in mind. Sure the correct thing to say on these sites is that you are looking for a long-term relationship but that isn't what begins to take place. As for myself I want an old-fashioned man who still believes that commitment and love are still things to be had and shared. I want an old-fashioned man who wants to be with just me and not every other good looking woman that may cross his path. But perseverance is not something people tend to have nowdays. Such a shame because we can either choose to be faithful to one another or not. We are beings and creatures of habit and since so many placed belief in their significant other instead of themselves, when we don't conform to the picture that significant other has of us, that's when the looking "for better" begins to happen.
We are Americans and used to instant gratification and numerous choices. From the coffee we drink in the morning to the type of clothing we wear, we have choices and so it just becomes natural for men and women to start seeking each other out until they "wear out" and we "throw them out" for new and hopefully "better".
Is this what you want out of single life? Or are you really an old-fashioned guy looking for someone to trust and support you. I believe most of us want the latter. What do you think?
