Work, Play, Trends and Surprises

As quite a few of you are aware from my previous blog posts and my recently infrequent Twitter tweets, I'm currently a bit 'trapped' at home. This has had somewhat of a negative effect on my opportunities to blog regularly, yet alone engaging in 'illicit encounters' and other misdemeanours. In fact even 'naughty' surfing of the 'net has been so difficult to be almost non-exist ant. I've also had some 'technology failures', all of which have meant I haven't been as active online as I would have liked to have been.

However I haven't been totally ignoring my blog and have been saving things up for now.

Firstly, I assume it's just me but I've become aware of an odd trend. Well an odd trend to me anyway. As I've said before I'm a member of a number of 'illicit encounters' websites and over the last month or so I've noticed a trend in the age of women contacting me or sending me 'winks'. They're getting younger, and in many cases young enough for me to be their Dad.

Whilst I'm not complaining (it's very flattering), and I wish I could take things a little further than I currently can, but I can't help wondering why this has started happening? It's not as if I've changed or updated my profile or anything, because I've not done that for ages. Now I realise that some young woman do actually like, appreciate and even prefer older men, but this is such a rapid rise over such a short period that I find it slightly odd. And before anyone suggests it, they aren't scammers from Russia or Africa either, they all seem to be genuine, attractive, young ladies. Have many young women got bored with selfish young men, have some 'discovered' the pleasures we older gentlemen can bring, or is the economic situation driving them to men they think may have cash in the bank or something? Anyone care to comment?

Otherwise I've seen a few amusing news stories below, along with my comments, which I've selected for you to read, comment on and discuss if you feel like it:

Watch out for Google Street View - "Track that cheating spouse of yours", especially when "A posh car really does turn a woman's head". And from Illicit Encounters themselves: "Love cheats drive flash cars". Funny that, I took part in that survey and I don't drive any of those cars and neither does Kelly!

I think there is a lesson here don't you?
"Drive a flash car and while you may get the women, it's more likely you'll get caught cheating..."

  1. Hi, sorry to hear about your limited access to all things worthwhile - ie communications -especially of the illicit kind. I have solved that problem to some extent by getting myself a BlackBerry but it doesn't help with the blogging I'm afraid. Young women. Sorry but I can't help you with the there motivation as I'm not one myself. But your reasons do sound feasible. Self assurance and confidence coupled with success and experience will do it for most women of any age. Don't fight it is my advice.

  2. Hi there... we spoke a while back about an article I'm researching. I'd like to interview you anonymously so if you're still interested in discussing that could you drop me an email to heidi@giftofthegab.net - thanks, Heidi

  3. Hello Neglected Husband

    Just found your blog through the independent article. I was one of those featured. Shame we didn't have a man's view as you kindly commented... we seemed to get a stoning from the others who left their barbs behind. Although as you say, you need to walk a mile in another's shoes first.

    I have added you and look forward to catching up on your blog.
