I may or may not have advice for you. Nothing wrong with your profile IMO (we share a similar sense of humour). As for me, I don't rely just on rhp, I'm a paid member on other sites also. I see you're open to different experiences also, as I am. I'm in a smaller city (100,000) which has the same effect on limiting contacts, but luckily I'm close to Melbourne, especially it's swinging scene. If it wasn't for that, well, I'd be in the same boat. The multiple sites has allowed me contact with many, mainly couples & group events, although I try for singles as well (but the distance does cause an issue). In any case, so far I've had 1-on-1 sex with one person in 9 months that wasn't at/through a swingers club or event. I have no idea if there's any such events or clubs in Darwin. I'm more successful on the other sites too, so maybe look around more. Yes men often spread across several sites, but as for women and couples, I find it's mainly a whole new community on each site. It's your best chance of finding some gems that you might otherwise be missing.

Not really much I can add. You are absolutely correct. When that number ticks over from 45 to 46 you enter an even darker zone. We are truly old then... well according to the majority here. I'll be down the hall playing bingo if you're looking for me; don't trip over the zimmer frame on the way in.

...the search seems to stop after 45......but being on the forums raises attention, and you have three very good validations, I wouldnt say you are on the RHP scrapheap (like me!) just yet, Be optimistic! I have regulars friends who still chat to me and I like the forums. Chat room is also a great way of getting to talk to and meet new people? Dont lose heart

...... the small available pool of opportunity in Darwin, probably doesn't help. ... but I wonder whether trying the same 'tried that' ... spoke to her ... leaves you a little jaded and unwilling to assertively pursue like you did when you started this adventure ? .... Sounds like you may have evolved ? Im finding Perth big enough to find interesting people to talk to ;) .... at 55 Love the profile .... Uly

I'll be 46 but for me finding men my own age looking for what I'm seeking is a narrow field. Plenty of 30's plus seeking the older ladies. The 40's plus men a lot not all are seeking younger. But I think over time you get less interest in your profile. I think its time you get Darwin Rhp out to meet socially at arranged events. - Posted from rhpmobile

In some ways a smaller city could be an advantage insofar as you are also one of fewer options for others. Not winning the lotto certainly is a big no no, you've surely gone and stuffed that up lol You look in real good shape for your age or even someone 10 years younger, I'd say, by demographic, you're in the top 10%. My age is listed as 46, I'm actually one year younger than that (sue me) + am married (but not looking to play around) and can comfortably say I don't get much contact love here, but again, I'm just here to perv and talk shit lol. MUST say, I loved reading your profile, best morning chuckle I've had in quite some time + massive respect re being a single dad, it mustn't be easy, but must surely be rewarding All the best

I have regulars friends who still chat to me and I like the forums. Chat room is also a great way of getting to talk to and meet new people? Dont lose heart I used to be a regular in the chat rooms a few years back, but have stopped my paid membership mainly because of the f**ked up state of affairs in the chat rooms. If you have been on recently, has it improved to any extent from previous. Always had problems with "drop-outs", rooms being full and therefore could not enter, etc. What's your opinion on current running ? Tall

Like Ms silk said - time for a Meet & Greet Darwin style.Its the best way to meet RHP peeps socially, and then take things from there..... Thanks to RHP - they have aged me well and truly before my actual birthday (I am still 58!!!)And I can say that its all a hit and miss.......not having a closed mind can do wonders and looking beyond preferances can result in some unexpected but good fun..... Can't comment on what its like for 40yolds on here, I only joined RHP in my 50's......and have had some fantastic experiences!!!! Keep an open mind and like Koko said - don't loose heart!!!

Definately depends where you live. Limited ppl obviously limits possible connections. Absolutely nothing I would change about your profile. Ive always liked your pics. If I was in Darwin...!!! And yes I personally would get onto a few other locals and see if they would be interested in a social meet. Then put it on the events page. Whats the worse thing that can happen? You meet a few new ppl and have a social drink and go on your merry way, or meet some people you arrange to see again. We go through funks on here, just cruise through it and dont blame yourself. Keep smiling!! 😄

OP..... I am going to ask the obvious question. You've had sex twice, via 2 liaisons. Why didn't either come back again? In marketing its far easier and more efficient to get more business from an existing customer than a new one...... so what went wrong with repeat monkey business with these two liaison lucky lovers?!!! I don't think age in the real world is anywhere as big a deal as you think...,, because as you get older, so does everyone else. (RHP is NOT a real world, where people select linear age parameters that most just don't do when face to face) - Posted from rhpmobile

Ive been told on a few occasions from some of the woman here they dont think they can come up to my expectations ? WTF' thats crazy ? How do they know my expectations and unless we meet face to face how would you know ? Yes ' I might ( if we meet and in a very polite manner ) let them know if I think we're a miss match , only because I dont believe in saying one thing and meaning another. In reality ' Ive always maintained a higher strike rate in the real world than on here , just the way it is. When I meet someone and they ask how old I am , the usual reply is ' youre joking ' or ' no really " could have fooled me ? But at least they meet me face to face and they can judge me by what they see rather than the number that frightens the be jeezus out some of in here...

TM, you know I love your profile, but yes, Darwin as nice as it is, it's out of the way. Now in saying that I know exactly how you feel, I lived in a township of 1000 people (so kindly referred to as the middle of Bumfucknowhere) so it was near impossible to meet any one, have since moved. But now I'm 46 I've definitely dropped off the radar, no lotto winner either, single mother with no time on her hands and a job that's a cunt feast, really it's a no win situation..... Oh well, shit happens and really I couldn't be bothered with it all that much, it is what it is..... Good luck Mister 💋

I think I qualify as one of those "long timers" - the chat rooms always used to be full of people and always had a great time in there with people from all over. That is where all my 'friend' listings are from, as we all used to get on so well in there. But the powers that be saw fit to change the format, and it was never the same again, unfortunately. I know a number of people made note to the 'management', but to no avail. The new format just sucks compared to what was available before. Thanks for your info. Tall

Shows your intelligent, know what you want, and also what you can offer. You're in the big smoke now - I would have thought you would still be able to get your "fair share". 46 ain't that ol' these days, and it seems you're still willing to make a go of it with the right people. I wouldn't throw in the towel just yet - I think you've still got plenty to offer - just need the right guy/s to appreciate it. Tall

I never found that anything changed from a 'boy meets girl' point of view when I was in my 40's and even now, I still do fine (certainly in my own age group... say late 40's to mid 50's and above occasionally). I don't mean to brag (God forbid, not much to brag about), but I have, on this and another 'Normal Dating Site" (in which I am looking for a permanent relationship), find things seem to be going fine. As fine as I would expect anyway. Not a day goes by when I don't get some sort of 'interest'... On the 'Normal Dating Site' (excuse the expression), I find I do better in my 50's than I did in my 40's (I was married in my 30's till my wife passed). Maybe this is the age in which a lot of men (with money at this time in their lives), can attract younger women and leave their wives (MADNESS, if you ask me... but I digress). There seems to be NO shortage in my age group of women who are looking for a genuine, decent and trustworthy bloke. Which I am when in a relationship. I wouldn't cheat for anything. I know how it hurts and would never want to inflict that on anyone at all. So, short answer, maybe it DOES have to do with the limited population in Darwin or any or all the factors you quote... But I'm sorry, I find at my age, I don't have any problems at all, so long as I don't aim at those who are below say... late 40's. You should be fine with ladies down to late 30's. I was fine then. Dated many and actually lived with a lady who was 13 years younger when I was 48... What can I say... Other than, your age is certainly not the problem... If anything, in my experience, it should be as good or getting easier for a genuine, decent and respectful young lad, such as yourself. Also, I see that Jay_me has mentioned he does well in the 'real world'... more so than on here. I find the same thing. I also find that I do far better on the "Normal Dating Site" than on here... But I still do OK. But as I explained to a bloke named 'Steve' in another topic... I spend the time messaging ( a few times) and getting to know a lady before I send pictures (which they must ask for) or force them into a situation where they have a choice between 'now or Tomorrow'. I believe a Lady likes to be pursued and feel really wanted regardless of the purpose of this site... "Hey how's about a fuck... here's a picture of my dick" doesn't work in most cases and never will. You still have to treat things as though you're meeting someone for the first time in reality... Just because it's a 'sexual encounter' type site does mean that manners, chivalry and common decency go out the window... There you go... another of my RARE 'novels' to explain some I feel is important... LOL

Darwin population 120,000, if you are getting some then you are doing OK. Looking at the demographics Darwin has many more men 53% as opposed to women 47%. In Perth that men and women are close to equal. It gets worse if you look at men compared to women in the 45-55 age range with 6.75% (8100) women and 7.6% (9120) men. Age is a factor because you are limiting your choice if you are after similar age, (whether women prefer older men, that is another issue and I would guess not a location dependent factor). With about 1000 more men than women the market is well in favor of the girls in the NT, but with such small numbers there is opportunity to shine. Much easier to stand out in a small crowd than a large. At the time I write this there are 6 women from NT online now in RHP and 32 men, that is slim pickings in any ones book but about comparable to WA, so as far as RHP opportunity goes and adjusting for gender imbalances the girls are hungrier up in the NT.

Quoting 'SuperFoxxxy' My teeth are my own, wear my 👓 to 👂and hearing aids to 👀 with! Yep! I'm going extremely well!! 😎Ms.Foxy Hi Ms Foxy, I found (and I think many people do) that from 40 on up, the eyesight begins to fail for 'close' work, like reading and seeing who your on top of... LOL. It's something that many have to deal with and anyone who finds this, shouldn't worry too much... It was 16 years ago for me when I noticed I needed glasses to read with, but I still pass the driving eye test without glasses. Generally it's only the close vision (within a couple of feet) that goes with age...

I think a running theme in the answer here has been the effort you put in is what you get out...I think... well I know for me.. when younger they all came to me... as I get older I actually have to out more effort in... The old age adage of "build it and they will come" doesn't cut it anymore... and yes yes I'm not yet even in my 40's but considering i've been enjoying the online life since early 20's I know it's about effort as you get older... And if your like me you get stuck in your ways so putting your self out there and getting shot down gets harder and harder...But in my numbers... and yes being a female is different but. For every 10 approaches (mails) 5 end up being chattable... from those 5 only about 2 go further then the online and then usually only 1 of them I end up meeting.And this isn't by my choice... it's bi partnership effort Over all I really believe you have to step it up as you get older... but you do get better at weeding out the good ones!

I don't think 45 is a "use by date" - I think it is fair to say that women in their 30s would be absolutely fine with a man who is 40+- it comes back down to personality and other factors (e.g. location, schedule etc) - Don't give up the hope :)

Now come on. What is this use by date business? Haven't you ever been to the supermarket and read what the labels say about me? Something like keep refrigerated. Best before ???. I have been refrigerated for far too long - but take me out of the refrigerator ....... Extremely well preserved. Nowhere near my use by date. Maybe we should ban the labels rather than believe what they seem to imply. It is not as if we are dealing with a barrel of rotten apples - is it? Maybe the apples have been in cool storage? I certainly have. Living and working in another country for a long time - and with no mate but my right hand. What can we do about this ???? Gordie
