  • I'm just glad I have 8 good years left. Ladies, come and get it before it's too late!

  • @Tender64 sorry you get that vibe from some. In our session, you were the perfect cuddler....so appreciative of touch, present, tender and respectful. In our touch deprived society, it's great to have a place to connect human to human. Glad you are in this community. Sad that there are some in all age ranges with creepy motives and it is better to error on tbe cautious side. Hang in there and you'll find your people. Glad I am one of them.

  • @lonelytauros Agreed. @Expecting_Magic Your post seems very focused on excitement about the ages of these women, and their attractiveness. "putting my hands all over her much younger frame" is most certainly a sentence that, while you were stating it in a positive way, comes off to me in a concerningly sexualized way. It could have been stated more platonically, like, "holding a younger person"...

  • Not considered one if you don't act like one. How you write and how you are in person goes a long way. Or just count in Mars years...

  • I don’t feel like there’s a whole lot out there, but I’m going to specifically request older cuddlers put their hands on my younger frame now. Who would be old and dirty in that scenario?

  • I'm 62. I've cuddled with women 18 to 70. They often say "Wow! You actually cuddle back." That always makes me laugh.

  • @NickWk That would make you a cub, dearie. 🐻 The prey of a cougar. πŸ˜‚

    Back to the original question: "How can a man 55 or older NOT be considered a "Dirty Old Man" if he seeks to cuddle? "

    It's called maturity and interactacting with a human being of the opposite sex. For this specific topic? There is a point where a woman (18 to ?) will decide what age boundaries she desires. A man also chooses what age boundaries he desires. For me it is 21 to 60. Im 67.

    The majority of women I have encountered on this site are in their 20s 30s and very few in the 40s. That is not by choice. It is the availability of the age range of women in my area.

    The younger women are absolutely fun to be with and they enjoy my company also. I brought up the age difference in conversation but they basically say "I don't notice the age difference". That's when you know you have encountered a mature young woman.

    I say this as shared knowledge. That a man has boundaries and will consider compatibility when interactacting with a woman.

    Yes, I know. Sometimes I can be too much😎

    Thank you. And I was poking fun at my selfπŸ™ƒπŸ™‚

  • How to not be considered a "dirty creep", of any age:

    • respect boundaries. Anything except an enthusiastic yes given freely with full knowledge of circumstances is a NO. Don't try to change their mind. Don't try to be the exception.
    • don't seek, imply, or ask for non-platonic activity
    • treat people as people, fully autonomous and deserving mutual respect - not sexual objects or lesser beings bound to your every whim
    • if you wouldn't say or do it with a friend/child/parent/other platonic loved one (given they are willing), it's not platonic

    Basically, don't be creepy and you won't be considered such. If you are 100% certain that you are behaving impeccably and do not need to do any self-work, then what others think is about them and not your problem. If however it is a reaction you get frequently and you're willing to do some uncomfortable introspection and work, then it may be worth exploring why people are responding that way. Sometimes people misunderstand our actions because of their lack of knowledge about our internal thoughts, and we sometimes lack the social skills or self-awareness to express our intentions more accurately. Or sometimes people are just unrepentant creeps.

    (Note: as usual, I any using general "you" and not directing this specifically at anyone unless they feel it fits)
