Hi DeeDee I'm in the Glasgow area as well

Good to see you go to meetups, and I'd advise the OP to do the same. They've been a lifeline for me and I've made some really great friends. I know three married couples who met through meetup, so you never know!

Ha ha, I can honestly say that nobody has messaged me or arranged to meet!

Hi OP, just came across this thread now and wanted to add my voice to the many on here saying you are very attractive and seem like a really sweet guy - what's not to like! I think your profile is good although I would be tempted to add more photos, as other people have suggested, and also maybe remove the 'short !!!!!' reference. It sounds a little like you're putting yourself down and you really have no need to!

I'm single, 35, female, sometimes get quite lonely so totally understand where you're coming from. Personally I don't think early 40s would be too old for a guy to become a dad - there are plenty more important things than age. I've heard that older parents have more intelligent children too (o:

I would definitely echo others' suggestions about getting busy with hobbies (meetup - anything interesting in your area? a sports club? a walking group? citysocializing? internations?). Good luck, and if I were closer I'd be messaging you on pof hehe!

Hi there,

Thanks for the great advice. I will add some photos soon and looking into the meet up things. I am thinking of joining some running clubs. Doing a charity run in June so that's something to aim for.

Just wondered how you're feeling now OP? Are things seeming more positive?

I met my fiance online. He's 5'7 and blondish too! He's also a bit shy but honestly there are women able to see through that. Hope you've managed to have a bit more luck!

38 is fine for starting a family, what suits one family does not suit all.
I'm 36 and single, been on all the usual sites but tbh nothing but slightly odd weirdos lol!
I suppose I'm at an odd stage as I have one dd but am still young enough to have another (or more!) still not decided as to whether I want to start again I suppose.
The best advice I have is just to be happy in yourself, I've met several guys who just want a relationship so badly that their desperation is a real turn off! (not saying this about you btw) so be yourself, enjoy life and see what happens

Good luck OP! You seem like a very sweet and genuine guy

Please keep us all posted!

Hi all,

Quick update. I am still single. Have my good and bad days. But in general I am feeling a bit better in myself.

Have been on a few dates from dating sites, but things haven't gone further as yet. Have a couple more dates lined up, so finger's crossed.
