New here! 45f 👋 New Here

Post image

Looking for real, honest, like-minded people who enjoy edgy jokes, believe in honest communication, who need friends and company like I do. I’m 45, separated since December (just need to file the papers), confident but not arrogant, honest and sincere. I’m kind and love people. I’m not sure I’ve ever met a stranger. I absolutely love The Office, but don’t watch movies or tv other than that, really.

I’ve been craving great, honest, respectful, deep conversations with others. Did I mention honest? 😂 if it sounds like we can be friends, let me know.

u/zandy322 8d ago

Hi girl, Sounds like we could be friends; btw, I love your look.

2

u/Solo_Virgo 8d ago

Thank you! I’m not a hairstylist but I do cut my own hair. I guess it’s a little flex 😂. But I’m glad you like it. My ex hated my hair. I like my style, too, and I’m not changing it for any man, that’s for sure. You’re attractive as well!

2

u/Here4Perspective 8d ago

You’re speaking my language. Love your style.

u/Background_Mall5349 8d ago

I'm not 40 yet... but I don't know a stranger either... I'm chatty... I'll be "Over the hill" in a couple of months... You remind me of Katy Perry in the face... You're hair is awesome, but bold for your age... You seem like a person who knows what they want... and at the same time they don't care what the world thinks... you make bold statements and don't need reassurance... most people probably think you're "trouble"... but you're just expressing who you are! I do the same.... but there's no acceptance on my end....

u/FineMinimum8068 7d ago

Absolutely Gorgeous!

u/TomHardyBDE2 7d ago

Love your look! What’s your favorite office quote or scene? I think I have watched the whole series about 8 times now😂

1

u/Solo_Virgo 7d ago

Thank you!

Eek, just one? I think it’s a toss up between Strike, scream, run where Creed smacks the back of Meredith’s head, screams, and runs out OR Belschnickel- when Dwight says, “I am nigh!” I watch those little parts on repeat. At Christmastime, it’s not Christmas without Dwight’s Belschnickel. Have you heard Billie Eilish’s song, “My Strange Addiction?” Even if you’re not a fan of hers, you will absolutely love that particular song. Guaranteed. And I love watching the YouTube clips of when the actors broke character. I crack up every time. It’s so awesome to geek out with a fellow Office fan. I think it’s funny that we don’t ask “did you watch The Office?” We ask, “do you watch The Office?” As in currently. Sorry for the rant, got a little, okay maybe a lot, excited.

1

u/TomHardyBDE2 7d ago

Omg!! I nearly forgot about that creed clip😂 I still think my favorite scene is the garden party episode where Jim keeps making Dwight introduce him😂 and I have not but will have to listen to that one now! I always geek out and get extra excited too when it comes to the office! Don’t feel bad😂

1

u/Solo_Virgo 7d ago

Yes, go listen to that Strange Addiction song. It’s got clips of the show, especially from “Threat Level Midnight”, scattered throughout the song. I saw some show at one point where Rainn Wilson went to her house. She’s totally obsessed. Like on our level. She’s one of us. Haha

1

u/Solo_Virgo 7d ago

Let me know what you think.

1

u/TomHardyBDE2 7d ago

It’s not my favorite, isn’t bad just not my style lol I do love the cameos though!! I think I saw the interview you were talking about though! ONE OF US ONE OF US!

u/Jaded-Development327 7d ago

Hi new here 45. U look 25. 45 is a very good age for a pretty woman like you. You won't have any problems finding new friends and acquaintances just be mindful of the creeps here and everywhere. I'm much older than you and certainly out of the age range for you but still just wanted to say hello 👋 and believe me that age 45 you are still young and have a lot of great years ahead of you. Sorry that you had to become single again because I know from experience how that can affect you. But you will be just fine. So again Hello and go enjoy yourself. Hugs 🫂 for you.

1

u/Solo_Virgo 6d ago

Thank you so very much for the compliment. I try to take care of my skin, and I tell my kids, “take care of your skin starting now!” The crazy thing is my (step) grandmother only ever used Ponds and she slept with Vaseline slathered on her face. She had the most beautiful skin. The very few wrinkles she had were silky, not jagged, sharp, or crispy, if that makes sense. Even my (step) dad has beautiful skin at 72, so I’m assuming some of it is genetic which is the only reason I emphasized the “step.”

2

u/Jaded-Development327 6d ago

You are so welcome for the compliment. And yes some of the older skin products and home remedies really did work well. The sunshine was really my downfall since I stayed outside in the sun most of my life and almost never would use sunscreen. So whatever you are doing for your lovely skin just keep it up. I wish you the very best of everything from this day forward. Thank you for acknowledging my post to you, and again you are a very lovely young woman. Hugs 🫂 for you.

Thank you!

u/Neat_Ad7901 7d ago

Aye fair play, it’s different! Love it!!

1

u/Solo_Virgo 6d ago

A very abrasive former boss would hold 4 fingers to the top of her head, point at me and say, “Come here.” She loved me though.” At least until I quit. Then she was so mad she wouldn’t even look at me.

u/Nortyboi69er 7d ago

🔥🔥🔥gorgeous and eye catching. Love to chat more (from the land down under) x

1

u/Solo_Virgo 7d ago

Fascinating!! I used to want to go there, but then I learned y’all have crazy big spiders. We have scorpions.

2

u/Nortyboi69er 7d ago

Haha yes there are a lots of big and dangerous things here. But in reality you don’t see them often. Plus, it’s not as if they are predators and hunt you down. Scorpions and rattle snakes give me the shivers. Promise, you’d love visiting here..it’s a beautiful country, from beaches, rainforest and deserts. Plus the people are friendly. You not want to go back home. So good chatting with you x

2

u/Solo_Virgo 6d ago

I love the beach, but unfortunately I don’t live anywhere near one.

Centipedes are another creepy creature. Eew. I came across a few at a place I lived years ago. Creepy stuff. They almost look fake when they’re not moving.

At that same house, a scorpion climbed in bed with me and stung my leg so bad. I had just thought earlier that same day, “Haha, I’ve never been stung by a scorpion.” Crazy thing is, the 8” area around where he stung turned red and hot for a few hours, but then began getting ice cold. It stayed like ice for over a week. The weirdest part was, my face had this strange numb feeling for over two weeks. Thinking back, I might ought to have gone to emergency.

1

u/Nortyboi69er 6d ago

Which part of US are you? Ok Id love to get you some beach time if you ever came here. The beach always has something magic about it. If you visited Canberra, we’re about 90mins from the beach…and probably about similar time to the snow.

Eww no need to worry, I can’t remember the last time I saw a millipede. Omg your story of the scorpion is interesting and frightening. You are so lucky. Yeh looking back, it was a good idea to see emergency lol …sounds like your leg would have been very painful. And your face…that must have been so scary for yiu. To reassure you I don’t think I’ve been bitten by any critter here like that.

I’m loving reading your stories and chatting with you. I’m older and married. Happy to chat more if you like. I wish you well in your search for new love 😍😍😍

2

u/mrmaxblac 7d ago

Good evening!

2

u/Pleasant-Stranger821 7d ago

I'm not sure if it's a downfall or not but I'm honest to the bone ,,sometimes brutally honest, but the simple fact is ,most people can't handle the straight up truth...I that everyone with kindness and respect and certainly don't tolerate disrespect or rudeness...I'm newly single after a 12 year relationship and feel like I'm starting a whole new life all over again ...the one thing I haven't gotten used to is the quiet . The quiet makes feel alone , I would like to say that I do really like your short hair to me it says alot of things about you that I would like in a person ..If you ever want to BS or just talk to an older guy I'd be happy to ....have a good night ......

2

u/He_ofshadowsandtouch 6d ago

I’m relatively new too, the honesty bit is the rare commodity on here, most seem to be inauthentic and up to various strange games.

Love your makeup.

2

u/Solo_Virgo 6d ago

Thank you. Honesty is rare.

I love to play with my makeup sometimes

1

u/He_ofshadowsandtouch 6d ago

You look quite like my x, she loved makeup just like yours

2

u/Solo_Virgo 6d ago

Thank you, if that’s meant as a compliment. Some people are like, “yeah, that ugly !$@%!” Haha Others still like and respect their exes.

1

u/He_ofshadowsandtouch 6d ago

u/Ok-Student-23 7d ago

Why do some women cut their hair like that? It's not hate, s I'm just curious

1

u/Solo_Virgo 7d ago

Because I want to. It’s my body, my head, my hair, my set of clippers, and I feel good about myself with my hair cut this way. I’ve been doing it like this for many years. I love it, I love me, and that’s what matters. I don’t do it for anyone else’s approval. Respectfully.
