Malta

[oldexpat]

I am heading to Malta next week end and was just wondering how it is? I am early 40's but have been told I look 30 many times (don't know why) and I am very young at heart. I have a girlfriend in Egypt but it is absolutely nothing serious. She is Muslim so unless I convert we have no chance penultimately. We havent been intermate anyway. What kind of age group hang out there and do you get any chance to meet girls lol?

[oldexpat]

I am sure I didn't here a 'plus' inbetween but then again your hearing does go a bit.

[snags]

So you want to know what the chances are of dipping your wick in Malta? As good a chance of anywhere else I'd have thought...

[mike11111]

You have a chance penultimately, although you might not have one ultimately.

[oldexpat]

I wonder if I did take a bucket and spade it would give me a boyish charm appeal to the ladies?

[mike11111]

Dipping your wick? LOL - haven't heard that expression for years!

[oldexpat]

Same here mike lol. So what age group would you suggest I would be suited to and what is available? Would you say I am too old for mid 20's?

[mike11111]

Unfortunately I would think so. I am now in my early 60s, although when I look in the mirror in the morning I get conflicting images - sometimes 30s, at others 80s - depending on the night I had before.

[oldexpat]

lol Well I will try not have too many heavy nights and hit on 20 year olds.

If you are in your forties, take whatever is going before it is too late. If Malta doesn't work out, try Barnsley.

If you cannot get a woman In Malta, just take it in hand! that should satisfy you.

I thought you had a girlfriend who put butter under her armpits?

[CovKid]

Maltese fathers are very protective of their daughters*, so they are off limits. Faced with that, the young men see the seasonal influx of tourists as their (note "their") summer harvest and guard it ferociously. Safest bet is to keep yourself to yourself.

*And at your age, you should note they are even worse about their wives!

[Emily Ball]

Bear in mind that if you hit on young women in their twenties, (even if your kind friends say you look thirty-ish) you will be looked on as somewhat akin to a paedophile. Don't be desperate, don't be tempted to lie about your age and above all, withdraw gracefully if the object of your interest is clearly not interested in you.

is the London underworld still controlled by Maltese gangs?

[oldexpat]

Thanks for your advice Emily although I can't really see eye to eye with it. I think you should try not to use that terminology as its completely unreasonable. Also I do consider gentlemen who cannot be intuitive enough to see if a girl is interested or not is lacking somewhat in the brain department. Your perception of me must be terrible.

Stop being sensible Emily. He's a DOM.
