I messaged one brother that i loved his profile, i never said i wanted him to date me. I initially thought we were a family on this site but i was so shocked when he messaged me back that i was not his match! i thought it was all about fellowship????????????? i am so surprised.But......its well! God bless us all! Post Reply

Perhaps, by doing that, truly Christian men will see how we support & care for each other and will join the discussion. And, let's face it, it's a lot less awkward than that first email! ~Blessings~ Post Reply
View Profile History	Dating When We Are Over 50 Posted : 22 Feb, 2012 02:31 AM I agree NRSV.Although I had no luck meeting any guys on Christian Mingle,I did make friends to 2 wonderful ladies.Of course neither live close to me but we are now Facebook friends and we do keep in touch.One is 4 hours away and the other is in Florida and I hope to meet her when I fly down in June.I also would have thought there would have been more people on here with it being free,but I wonder if it is because people don't know about it.Plenty of Fish is free and there are a lot of people on there but the majority of them do not appear to be the type of people I am looking for as friends or to date.I really can't help but think that the stand that I take for the Lord has hindered my responses on the online sites.Whether it's a christian site or not,I am always VERY clear that I am looking for people that have put God first in their lives.Otherwise,what would we really have to talk about? Especially when it comes to a potential mate,I am not just looking for someone that attends church,but a TRUE christian that is sold out to God.I do believe fellowship is very important and I will continue to check in on here.My favorite part of CM was the 50's chat room.I only tried the chat here one time and it was mostly young people.Have a blessed day:yay: Post Reply
NRSV1953 View Profile History	Dating When We Are Over 50 Posted : 22 Feb, 2012 07:18 AM What you say is so true Tuckygirl! I was on this site a year ago and left, but recently decided to give it another go round. Combined with my experience on POF and Christian Mingle, I see a pattern that is sort of disturbing. It seems that too many men (at least in our age group) act as if this is a restaurant menu and all they have to do is select what they want and it will be "delivered" unto them! Perhaps that is exactly what happens. Does anyone know? Are there so few fine Christian men and such an overabundance of fine Christian women that it's simply a numbers game? We know that men, even Christian men, are wired to first fall in love with the visual image of the woman. But, hey, none of us are dogs, so what gives? Don't you think that it's quite telling that only one gentleman (thank you Barefoot!) has bothered to reply to this post? I know there are genuine Christian men who are very active in the Forums here but they must not experience the same thing that we women are going through. I find it heartwarming that such fine ladies are involved in this discussion and I hope we can continue to build each other up in Christ's name! Post Reply
Len1932 View Profile History	Dating When We Are Over 50 Posted : 22 Feb, 2012 11:41 AM It is nice to talk to some ladies that seem to know how not to get involved with a nonbeliever and scamed. I am way older than you but still enjoy talking with women that have the Lord first in their lives. Also write a column each week that goes out world wide over the computer and to local newspapers. Much is how the Lord has blessed us time and time again and tell personal stories with Bible related verses. I would like to find a lady in my area for companionship and attending church and dinning out. It is hard to talk to any in over 60 range as they are in senior homes or with family. My website is TipTopWebsite.com/LensLines if anyone wants to read past columns. God Bless All You Beautiful Ladies. Len Post Reply

View Profile History	Dating When We Are Over 50 Posted : 28 Feb, 2012 12:23 AM There aren't too many men my age on here in my area. I hope the ones who email are more couteous than on Date Hookup as they are a real trip on there. Post Reply
NRSV1953 View Profile History	Dating When We Are Over 50 Posted : 28 Feb, 2012 08:08 AM Java, It doesn't sound like that other website is Christian specific. Is it? In my limited experience here on CDFF, the emails I get are mostly from scammers and much younger guys in Nigeria. It's getting pretty easy to figure out which ones are scammers and, so far, the young men from Nigeria have been very polite when I explain that we can be Prayer Partners or Email Buddies but that's all. There are some very nice, considerate men on here but in my experience, the ones in my age group that contact me, are few and far between. But, if there's even one, somebody may get blessed!

Len1932 View Profile History	Dating When We Are Over 50 Posted : 5 Mar, 2012 09:46 PM The possibility of finding a Christian lady within driving distance on here is questionable. Lots of overseas women wanting to get here. I just remember the 55 years I had with my wife who went home 3 years ago. Also can recall questioning whether to get on the bus to the dance, against my better judgement. Was married in Baptist church and tried to live for the Lord. Len When I was in 1st and 2nd grades , there was a girl that I really enjoyed being with each day. I would go out of my way to school (we walked blocks to school in those days) .just to have the opportunity to be with a girl named Coralie. That name is not often given to a girl even today. Along about the end of the school year she moved from the area and her name and great times we had has always stuck in my mind. This happened in Iowa and when I joined the Air Force they sent me to California. There one day I attended a USO dance held by the high school girls and would you believe met a beautiful girl, and her name was Coralie. She was one of the top dancers and I never learned to dance, the daughter of the Chev Plant Manager and I was just a one-striper in the Air Force, but she invited me home that day to visit with her parents. We hit it off from the very start and one month after graduating from high school we were married. Just 6 months after meeting and she was just 17 and I was 20 so we had to have our parents permission to get married at that age. In 55 years, we traveled the world, had six children, had a farm and several other businesses together. We had a high respect for each other, even though I never learned to dance. When I found another girl named Coralie, I never let her go Post Reply
NRSV1953 View Profile History	Dating When We Are Over 50 Posted : 6 Mar, 2012 08:31 AM Wow Len! That's a great love story! You were surely blessed to have had so many wonderful years with your beloved! Perhaps there is a Coralie on CDFF? We just never know what amazements God may have in store for us! Stay blessed and stay in touch! Post Reply
