Granny fanciers

No but a friend of mine had one from Canada who she messaged (?) a few times before she blocked him.

My name is non gender , so I get requests ( and suggestions ) from creepy men and daft women , I just block them

I never put a picture of myself on ! Don't want to break the internet !

When I was 18, I could never imagine myself fancying a granny let alone @@@@@@@ one. What a difference 63 years makes, give me a granny any day of the week .

There used to be a very creepy chap on here who would allude to his proclivities and those of his "ladies"

I remember him, Phoenix and how he luuurrrved older women! but I think the messenger got the message eventually.

I don't get them on FB so much but have had a few on Skype from both men and women - I've no idea why they do it - instantly blocked.

There is a bloke here who fancies a specific granny.

I have had 3 or 4 requests on FB, all nice looking men of about 40.I would bet my last pound that they are archive photos from a Web page and not really them.

I certainly lust after one granny, and fantasise about her frequently, she is ....... (now that would be telling)

My Skype keeps getting friendship requests from generals in the US military (odd how there is no-one enlisted in the US army under the rank of general) They send photographs of distinguished-looking chaps in uniform and seem really keen to lavish affection on me.

I think it must be because part of my Skype username is the last two digits of the year of my birth, and they think that is my age. I just block them.

I saw a Dr Phil show about this kind of thing and it was a complete scam. It was actually very sad because these women did not appear to be particularly gullible, just lonely. The men are trying to groom you, not for sex but for money. They can be extremely convincing, using information about real people who have no idea their identities are being used in this way. The men can be targeting several women at the same time, all at different stages. They chat online and on the phone, and even meet the women. The FBI has a whole department dedicated to this kind of fraud which is really only made possible because of the development of the internet.

Sorry, I should have mentioned that often it's about money laundering.

Goodness GandTea I read that as "every day of the week!!"
Moderation in ALL things!

Have we ever had a GN wedding?

GandT you are incorrigible

I suspect a lot of these are attempts at scamming or younger men fancying their chances. I am a hard bitten cynic about any approaches like this on line.

My friend was using dating sites and one night when visiting her she showed me some of the replies and yes very obviously scammers. One was supposedly a senior officer in the US military and we made up replies which were very silly but made us laugh and kept us amused for a while.
I've been divorced since 1987 but never felt the need to join a dating site, or to have a permanent relationship. My friends think that's odd but I'm quite content as I am and too busy to fit anything more in to my life just now.

Alea, "Every day of the week" now that would be ridiculous, I like to keep weekends free.

Simply had to reply to this one. Just this morning I took the decision to deactivate my Facebook page, not because of creepies getting in touch but because after a year's membership the only people ever to contact me were my sons and daughter and I prefer to chat to them by phone anyway. I'd been wasting so much time of late scrolling up and down through nonsensical posts. Don't know what happened to all those 'friends' who befriended me in the beginning. They certainly never responded to any of my posts.

I have had a few requests from strange men and women on Facebook. I just reject them all, am happily married, but a lot of younger guys do like older women. They assume we are all 'experienced' in certain subjects lol. I told one, we might look OK in a photo, but once we have removed the uplifting bra and the control pants, different story lol! Think he was young enough to be my son or even grandson!

This made me laugh because in my late 70s I received a private message from someone - on another forum, not facebook - suggesting a meetup with my husband, as a 4some for "fun".
I politely wrote back saying I was flattered by his offer, but because this was one of the reasons I divorced my first husband, I had to decline.

I ve had young men send me messages on FB telling me how much they admire me or think we have lots in common or what lovely smile/eyes etc haha they go straight in the bin

Hmm .... Why don't I get young women (I'd even settle for an old one) chasing me on FB ?. You grans get all the fun.
