writes:Dear Cupid, I have been quite alone for over 12 years now. My last (and only) marriage was a disaster- all I got out of it was three great kids, who are now grown. However, I am willing and able to start over again; I have a real desire to be a Father and Husband. I believe that I have a lot to give to someone in a relationship or marriage. My problem is that I am having real difficulty finding a woman who is interested in me!I am only 51 years young. I own my home and cars outright; no mortgage or car nots, and I am gainfully employed- although I am under-empolyed for my level of experience and education (I am a Social Work graduate, ex-cop, ex-school teacher, and other jobs as well.).The problem seems to be that I am viewed as somewhat, "eccentric", in that I do not "go along", with a lot of the things that Modern society says that I have to have, or do. i am a very moral and ethical person, and this seems to be a turnoff to most of the women I meet. Sex is NOT the reason for my existence; frankly, I can live with or without it. If you can help me out, I would appreciate it very much!

reader, anonymous, writes (31 July 2010): Go to parks, sit down, read the paper, drink coffee or get a dog and walk him around. When you see a women you like, with or without kids, go and sit next to her if you can. If she has a kid, compliment that - "oh, what a cute kid you have, how old is he... etc", if she is alone ask he something like - "Hey what is a beautiful woman as yourself doing out here all alone?" just to get things started. Later on ask her stuff like "hey are you from around here?... Do you come here often?... etc". Make sure you get her number or address and ask her out. And remember this will take time so get yourself out there :)
I hope I could help you a bit.

hstruman is verified as being by the original poster of the question I have traveled, and been online, at all kinds of different sites, looking for someone- and have not found anyone who seems to be interested in having a stable, loving mate! I see a lot of single women with kids out here, who are looking for stability- and are not finding it! And I am STABLE- and not finding it! I have a 4 bedroom house and 2 cars, PAID FOR, am not in any sort of serious debt, and this seems to not have any effect at all on my search!

Well im young, but i can tell you about finding someone. as we all know, Play ground love is with just anyone, and when love comes around the first time, it seems so hard too catch the second time, you see someone you might like, then you imagine things further and it just dont seem too work? well look around, you might not be modern, but what is stopping you from taking a travel sometime? a short holiday, or even hook yourself up with a few dating websites. it can all help, especially if your social.
