To Guest STIM,

Excuse me, but I do not "stare" at men's wedding bands on the bus.

There is a difference between just taking a glance and staring.

I never "stare" at anyone. It doesn't take long to "notice" a wedding band - you don't have to stare to see it. It is rude to stare and I DO NOT STARE.
I do attend, go to places I enjoy. If you reread my post, I was in a photography class (because I enjoy it) I took a guitar class (because I enjoy it), go to hear folk music .

Sure, it would be nice to meet someone at these places or classes so you can share that interest with someone else. I didn't say I was actually looking for a husband but would be nice to meet a guy to hang out and go out with sometimes.

I am not into some of the interests you mention. No dog and no one around here can have dogs in the apartments. I do have a cat though.
I also go to folk music venues and house concerts to hear folk singers that I enjoy listening to. (if I can get there on public transit.)

I am just saying that at these places (I do go to, there are just not single men there) I do live in a large city.
So I do have different interests. It just is not that easy to find single guys at these places to meet, hang out with.

My friends are married and do not live near me. We talk on the phone.
If they do go out at night it is with their husbands or a friend who lives in their area - close. Most of my friends who do drive (which is fewer and fewer) do not drive far or do not drive on freeways at all.(fear of driving as they get older I guess.) I don't have that huge circle of friends (woman)anymore- just a handful of friends but they do not live near me. I have known them for years and years and it is pretty hard to meet new friends as you get older. Most of them moved far away years ago to the suburbs when they got married.
