Comment from Esther Brown
Now if that lady had any class, she would have used the opportunity to check him out. Good looking older men who can hobble about and have a sense of humor are a rare find. Alas, she missed out. Good luck in the contest. Esther

I would agree with you, Esther, that the lady made a mistake. Many thanks for sharing my story. Rod
Comment from Wendy G
Oh dear. I guess she wasn't the right one for you in that case. You would be more comfortable with someone who was kind and caring enough to come to your assistance. Well written.
Best wishes.

Thank you, Wendy, for sharing and praising my story. The narrator will just have to keep looking. Rod
Comment from F. William Lester
So sad. But on the upside, he didn't waste any money on someone who wasn't sincere. Medicare will take care of the fall. Better luck next time. Good luck in the contest.

Thank you, F. William. Your review of my shortie is much appreciated. One does wonder if he will keep responding to that dating app.

My pleasure.

Hello. You did a great job with developing this story for the Good Idea contest. Your subject caught me off guard. I thought your main character didn't seem so bad... was it the cane or the fall that doomed this meeting? Good work and good luck.

Thank you so much, Melissa, for your kind praise. I am inclined to believe Mary was turned off by first the sight of a cane, and then his fall.
Comment from Julie Helms
Ughh, I can't imagine having to get back into the dating pool. I watched some friends do it in their 50s and it was already a nightmare at that age. Your entry is a good example for the prompt. It is concise and well written. Best of luck!

Thank you, Julie, for your kind praise of my story. It was inspired by a friend who just got back into the dating pool.
Comment from Nicki.B
Awe that was cruel! That pretty faced lady certainly didn't have a conscious at all. One would have a lucky escape, no point in spending time with somebody like that! I really like this story sounds like it could and has happened to people! Well done.
Best Wishes

Comment from Kahlani
Oh dear, what a disaster. I was just as hopeful as you about meeting Mary. She is not the one for you because she didn't help you. Great job and good luck.

uh oh
Not a sympathetic person, Mary. I think it's a good thing your character found out before he might have gotten involved, though I'm sorry he fell.
A good 100 word story.

Well, that was embarrassing! It totally blew your image of that buff man with lots of hair which every woman wants. I guess "similar interests" went out of the window. That was very funny, and I enjoyed it so much.
