"I'd like to have breakfast with somebody. I'd like to go to bed with somebody. Sleep with somebody."

Says Martha Stewart, who is 71, and can't really very easily use Match.com.

Anonymous said...: No way she'll find somebody on Match.

First off, she can't post her photo, and without a photo, she'll get zero responses. She does however look wonderful for 71.; 4/30/13, 11:28 AM
Lem Vibe Bandit said...: With somebody who loves me...

Martha... 'I like to prance around the house on my birthday suit, with only my ankle bracelet monitoring my every movement'.

She just needs to spruce up her profile a bit like that.; 4/30/13, 11:34 AM

There is always a wrinkle.; 4/30/13, 11:35 AM
ricpic said...: Can you imagine the enflamed will of this woman should it be thwarted? Sure she'd like to wake up next to a guy, a guy who'd never ever question her my way or the highway commands.; 4/30/13, 11:47 AM

Nice one, Pogo.

I'm really torn on this stuff. I've had nothing but great relationships in my life, and have never had an angry break up, but I just can't imagine getting in another one. That doesn't really make sense, since I have no real negative experiences, but I sure enjoy the freedom and privacy of being unattached.

I would like to have a woman friend that I just enjoy good times with: travel, adventure, intimacy, conversation, but without the constant expectation of more. Yea, I know, real original for a guy, right?

At this point in life, I just have no tolerance for any drama, and I'm a bit of a pain in the ass myself, so I'm good right now, but maybe when I'm 71, I'll feel different. Wait for me, Martha.; 4/30/13, 11:47 AM

Except for the slight factor of feeling like death for the first hour after you get up.; 4/30/13, 11:58 AM
Dust Bunny Queen said...: We have some good friends who are 68 and 66. They found each other on E Harmony about 8 years ago. She was a widow and he long time divorced. At the encouragement of family they went ahead and got on E Harmony. He is from West (by God) Virginia and she from Calif. After corresponding via email and telephone, they finally met in a public place and.....long story short (too late!!) they got married and are extremely compatible and are happy together.

I don't know if they tried other dates before meeting each other....none of my business. But the reality is that they would never have met without the E Harmony web program.

Sometimes these things work out. There is nothing worse than being lonely unless it is being OLD and lonely. Companionship, even without any major sexual component, is vital to living.; 4/30/13, 11:59 AM

My basset hound never has a cross word for me. He did bite me once but it was my fault (the old battered spouse routine).

I also have two ex-wives who are friendly now after a rough few years.

That's enough.

Dogs are a lot cheaper. The old joke was, "You don't have to get married. Just find a woman you can learn to hate in a few years and buy her a house."; 4/30/13, 12:44 PM
FleetUSA said...: Does she just want a f*** buddy, toy boy or someone she could play chess with as she ages?

H Kissinger famously wanted to marry for the latter.; 4/30/13, 1:27 PM
Crunchy Frog said...: I want somebody to share
Share the rest of my life
Share my innermost thoughts
Know my intimate details
Someone who'll stand by my side
And give me support
And in return
She'll get my support
She will listen to me
When I want to speak
About the world we live in
And life in general
Though my views may be wrong
They may even be perverted
She'll hear me out
And won't easily be converted
To my way of thinking
In fact she'll often disagree
But at the end of it all
She will understand me; 4/30/13, 1:34 PM
Steve Koch said...: She still looks great, 5'9", 130 lbs.

She could go on a web dating service and post pictures of herself that don't include the face. Once guys contact her she could talk with them and get to know them and have her army of PIs check them out, revealing her identity only when she is convinced the guy is not a perp.; 4/30/13, 1:35 PM

Right?; 4/30/13, 1:50 PM

bagoh20 said...: I think she looks great, like 50s. I think she looks better now than when she was younger. I don't have any specific memories of her being a bitch, but maybe she has been, but everyone is now and then. OK Martha, call me. Let's give it a go, and save some money on the match.com thing.; 4/30/13, 2:40 PM
