Out of my League

 It probably wouldn't have worked

                                           Alan Place - Free Agent

For the moment, I am a free agent, until Svitlana and I decide where we wish the friendship to go.

I was looking at the ladies who are taking an interest in me on the mature dating app I use. There are some very attractive ladies looking my way, one of the problems is some of them are out of my league. They are CEO's, business managers, and ladies with a much higher education level than me. It isn't that I feel threatened by their eduaction level, I had a friend in Seattle for over a decade, who was had a University degree, and we got on well. I often suprised her with my ability with words, and my books I was reading.

The issue is what would we talk about?

I am Cancer free

 Mental Health Concerns

                                                  Samsung Health Awareness

I was scheduled to visit Southmead Hospital later this month, for a final check-up on the cancer I have. A lump was discovered several years ago, on my kidney, which instigated as series of check-ups at Cossham Hospital, thankfully, the appointment is back at Southmead, Cossham is a bind to get to from Hartcliffe.

This is a final check, the lump has not shown signs of growing, I was never worried, I suspected something was wrong as I get a stabbing pain on my right side, occcasionaly. I put it down to a cycling accident when I was 16

An Unavoidable delay

Pleasing the ladies

                                                        SoulMateMeets

I have several ladies on soulmatemeets who think I have neglected them, this is far from true. The reason for not being in contact is I cannot afforf the cost of chatting more than twice a week, at the moment.

I have been asked, how much like the character in my award-winning book - The Chronicles of Mark Johnson - am I?

We do share various matters, we hate the trend of celebrity.

We love the sea, peace and quiet, and a good mystery.

However, we differ in one area, Mark is considered a ladies man, while I am not, even if my popularity on mature dating apps would indicate otherwise. I have no control over how mature ladies see me, I don't go out to gain mature lovers.

Alan Place - Noir Writer

 Spider Noir

My first eBook sale

I will admit from the get-go, I have not seen a Spiderman movie, and as far as I recall I can't recall seeing a Nicholas Cage film. With that information at hand, you would think Spider Noir wouldn't be of interest to me, but it is, I am looking forward to seeing the series on Amazon Prime.

I enjoy most film-noir movies, it is the dark side of life, when people make bad choices, and leave mysteries in their wake

Frequent Flyer MIles

 Alan's Global Harem

My sex appeal

With my popularity growing among mature ladies online, if I took part in the Frequent Flyer programme, I get so many requests to meet ladies, I would hardly be in the UK.

Outside of the USA, the most requests come from China, and Japan. If I had the money, I would love to visit Asia, Asian women are very attractive, but so are ladies from other countries. My friend in Oxfordshire comes from the Ukraine, and I think she is very attractive.

The only countries I am not keen on are Malta,and Cyprus. I knew ladies from there years ago, and they had violent attitudes.

Do I find mature ladies talking about sex off-putting?

 Granny Sex

                                                     My turn-on

This is a multi-layered question, which is not easy to answer.

In short, no, I don't find a lady who wishes to talk about sex as off-putting, I get turned-on by it.

However, there are limitations.

We have to be friends, if a lady comes onto too quick it can be upsetting, as it raises the question, is she interested in me?

I have to see her as attractive.

Ideally, she should be in the age I am looking for 50s to late 70s.

Too much sex chat can be boring.

If all she wishes is sex chat, the chat won't last long.

My sex appeal

 Hunted or Haunted?

I don't know why

The time has come, I think, to attempt to clarify my sex appeal.

This will be my outlook on what is happening, as I have little contact with many of the ladies who see me as attractive.

From lady friends I used to have, in ages past, certain trends appeared in our chats. It isn't always about physical attraction, I have never considered myself attractive to ladies.

The most common trend in the comments are I respect the ladies. Unlike many men, I see a lady online as a lady looking for someone to talk to, not as a target for a sex chat. If the lady wishes to talk about sex, that is her choice.

I have been told, I have a gentle personality, and I am pleasant to talk to. I built what popularity I have on being a nice person, not on seeing myself as a he-man type. Looks can change, the person usually stays, there are exceptions to all rules.

I have never cosidered cosmetic surgery, even before I knew of my genetic flaws, I discounted the idea. The only thing I would have liked is black hair.

Since joining two Mature Dating apps last month, I have been overwhelmed by the number of mature ladies who find me attractive. I am both delighted, and a little scared. I joined the sites to find out if ladies found me attractive, end of the story, I never thought of going further. I have a friend in Oxfordshire who is adamant she wishes to meet me soon
