My daughters have gifted me a six month subscription for a popular dating site for Father's Day.
My wife of 39 years (their mother) died over two years ago and I went through successful cancer treatment last year and in now in remission. I mentioned to my daughters that I might be open to meeting someone now given that the numerical odds are in my favor and my sweet wife waiting in heaven would want me to be happy for the next twenty years or so of my life.
They are also going to introduce me to some of their contacts who might be open to a pity date. Of course (being good daughters) they asked if I would consider anyone outside my race, religion, etc. I told them that the one and only turn-off would be liberals.
My life's experience is that it is generally easier to get someone to change one's religion, cultural outlook or almost anything other than extreme political views. Liberals come with an entitlement mentality. At best, they would be a waste of time and dinner money. At worst, they would have divorce rape on their minds . . . pretend to love you in order to steal half of what you have worked a lifetime to earn.
I am realistic enough to understand that finding someone like my late wife would be impossible. She was kind, caring, conservative and had a big heart. I loved her dearly and deeply. We raised three highly successful children who have blessed us with wonderful grandchildren. But I would far rather spend the rest of my life alone than get romantically involved with a liberal leftist lunatic with divorce rape on her mind.

Thank you very much and God bless you.
Nope. I was on there a couple of years ago and stated in my profile that I love Donald Trump. I figure it would filter out the crazies. And it worked.
Stay single. You’ll be the happier for it.
Don’t start a relationship you know will end in a disaster..............
Your nuts to waste your money on Match.com as most are AI generated as most Dating sites and if you find a live one well that opens a whole other can of worms...
Not at all. Do not even consider it. You will be miserable. You would find every conversation will most likely turn into an argument.
Steer clear. You could end up with a joy behar clone. LOL! Good luck whichever way you go. And condolences for your loss a couple years ago.
No, she would kick you out anyway. Why put her through all that?
The Book says do not be unequally yoked with an unbeliever.
Same principle applies here.
Iow, dont date, if it was meant to be it will happen.
Your meddling with God's plan is sure to turn out in the devils favor.
No. I would expand that, to avoid most American women, at least urban or suburban ones. Look overseas: Poland, the Phillipines, Colombia. All have lovely women who have not been infected by capital-F Feminism or Western Liberalism . . .
Love. If the woman loves you and you love her, you can bridge the divide. I married my wife 27 years ago and she was an agnostic liberal. Now, she votes for Trump and a devout Christian and we are doing fine!
Some couples make it work.
But you are entirely entitled to find someone like-minded.
2 Corinthians 6:14, (NIV), states: “Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness?”โฆ
No way! Hold out for a woman who shares your values. And this will honor your deceased wife as well.
Ask yourself, in today’s political environment, do you want to have to listen to TDS every day after work? If the answer is no, you have your answer.
I wouldn’t focus on her liberalism. I would focus on whether she is intolerant of your views and whether she will respect your views. There are plenty of couples out there with loving relationships where the husband and wife have different political views.
Sorry to hear about your circumstances. God bless for persevering. As far as the liberal woman thing, I think you’ll find your answer soon enough.
No. Not in this day and age.
I got back into the Dating world after being off the market for 10 years and met this Woman on Match and I went to pick her up and found out she was living with a guy in this little shack of a house and it all become clear so if you are smart steer clear of these Women today.
You’re being smart. But it’s a matter of degree of craziness and commitment to the left. She could be turned.
