    What are some of the best dating sites for a shy loner?

    No to POF or Oasis, where you can have a partner each night and not the next. In the majority that it is their lifestyle - not wanting a life partner. I am your age and believe you should go to places like ballroom dancing, Bingo, a Service Club, etc but not a place with alcohol as that dulls...

    Do you get on with your neighbours?

    Wow, what an experience you've had. Be proud that you gave S$%^. I, like you, leave notes like "don't take your watch off", which in theory will alert me of Mum falling and if I don't respond will phone our 000 (your 911) with her address. There may be a time when Mum's Alzheimers lets her mind...

    Do you get on with your neighbours?

    I'm fighting siblings and the health system for her to stay in the home she built with my recently late father - back in the '50s. Mum won't let me live with her - "Son, you moved out in 1978 and you aren't moving back in" She and I laugh at that near-daily. My time off is when my sister visits...

    Do you get on with your neighbours?

    My cooking is only given when I know it will be appreciated. My elderly mother appreciates them, as I make meals she made for me.

    Do you get on with your neighbours?

    Or use battery-operated trail cams (bush cams in Australia) in the interim. They trigger when motion is detected. Good luck.

    Do you get on with your neighbours?

    If not already done, install surveillance cameras. I had great neighbours on 3 sides, but one couple sold. The new back neighbour is a whinger and complained to the council about weeds in my backyard. I went back into my recordings and found they looked over by putting a ladder on the small...

    Do you get on with your neighbours?

    Well, to not annoy that neighbour is to possibly: - play when they are not at their home - go to an area they can't hear, say a park. Others will give more ideas. Overall, you have to balance your enjoyment against others' wants. Weirdos wander in all areas. I'd love a guitar-playing...

    Do you get on with your neighbours?

    Kind of you to stop playing. I'm assuming your acoustic guitar was plugged into an amplifier. If not, then are you living with a wall between neighbour and you? If no amp or wall I am stumped for ideas.

    Unpopular opinion? : They need to ban women from tattoo parlors.

    Say 2+ decades ago when I noticed women getting tattoos, my son's girlfriend got one on her lower back. After a year she regretted it. I told her that no one needs to see it with normal clothing. It is sad to me now in recent years young women are tattooing parts of their bodies they can't hide...

    Questions for the Men

    I'm at the near end of a 7-year fiscal divorce. We agreed on 50/50 and when things were sorted, sent an offer of 53/47 her way. Not accepted. The family court is soon to decide. No dependents. When that happens, my stressed state will gradually go away. I'll know my asset $ and work my...

    Hi there!

    G'day. Joshua. My theory that works some days for me is that I have myself. I focus on that and choose something. Some would call it selfish but I don't,

    I don't know what to do anymore

    Welcome, Princessic8. I am a believer in bariatric surgery - when other ways don't work. For 4+ decades I trained near-daily in swimming. I was hopeless at any other exercise. Then osteoarthritis got to my hips. I took a break from a daily routine. I went from a toned 75Kg to an obese 103kg...

    But he's married?...

    One great pact my wife and I had was that if we strayed then we would tell each other ASAP. We knew of the challenges. For us, we had a pass card to stray. The pact we had eased my way of being tempted. We shared the "come-ons" and that mostly led to a romantic evening between us.

    But he's married?...

    Whilst during my decade's long and only marriage, I had women who offered themselves to me. My marriage was just the best and I would stop the advances - but aroused of them. Males are more likely than Females to stray. I've been on many a men's weekend trips to see my married mates chatting...

    Your public image.

    Mine is just 7 years. My home was full of children and their partners. Sad for me but life passes on. I had parents to look after and now it is just my Mother. Covid has taken from me the ability to have a meal and drink with friends I knew from early school.

    Questions for the Men

    Spot on. We humans seem to have delusions about relationships. I have a ten date rule. Sure, I want earlier to get into it. My rule has worked for me. I've got to know the woman. "I ain't no tart"
