My (50) success story of meeting a girl (23) less than half my age at a trivia bar night

​

After getting separated from my wife, and staring down 50, I decided Fuck it, life ain't over. Go live it!

I called up a guy friend who was also recently single and said let's go see what we have been missing. We chose a bar that had a trivia night because it just seemed more casual and because I am a huge fucking trivia nerd.

Now I never thought I would be the kind of guy to chase after much younger girls, in fact I assumed younger girls would be out clubbing and women my age would be out playing trivia. But much to my surprise there were a fair amount of 20 and 30 year olds there.

My friend wasn't into trivia and just wanted to drink and scope things out, so I approached a couple 20 something girls and said "with your brains and my beauty, I think we can dominate" which got a chuckle out of them and they agreed to form a team. As a team we actually did do pretty well, they kept complimenting me on my knowledge. But it was the laughs that I think got them, especially 'Emma' who seemed to find everything I said hilarious. What I think sealed the deal in my head was when Emma was reading an answer out loud and she read the whole thing like 'Turkey (maybe spelled Turkiye)' and I leaned over and whispered "I don't think you're supposed to read the stage directions out loud" which made her snort loudly.

As the night went on it became clear that Emma's friend was not really into me, my friend, or anyone for that matter. So that made it clear that they weren't just being friendly, Emma was interested. So when the evening was finished I leaned over where both could hear and said "Well Emma, I think it was Socrates who said 'The bravest thing a man can do is ask for a girl's number in front of her friends'" her friend's jaw dropped to the floor and she was like "wow you have balls" But Emma was almost beaming, but she played it cool. She said "I'll write down my (messaging app) name" and I totally pulled it off like I knew what she was talking about.

So I got home, googled it, found out it was a messaging app, installed it on my phone and made an account. Then I had that moment like on Swingers where I wondered if I should text her then or wait a few days to seem 'Cool', but then I decided that I am already cooler than the other side of the pillow and texted her. Well she said she was hoping to hear from me sooner rather than later, and now that she was away from her wet-blanket friend she really started to open up. Emma is what we would have called a little chubby back in the day, but I think the kids now say thicc with two Cs for some reason. Large breasts, wide hips, thighs to die for. All good, I love me some curves. She had a very cute girl-next-door face and just the sweetest and brightest smile with the cutest little laugh. She really made you hope everything you say is funny because you want to see her smile and laugh. By the end of the conversation she was already sending me risque vanishing pics. I certainly lived life that night indeed.

Despite my username I don't really want to get into all the salacious details, most of that is between us and our memories. But over the next few months she definitely turned back my clock a few winds and I taught her a few new tricks from an old dog. She claimed that a lot of the things we did were firsts for her. She especially liked that I was strong enough to whisk her off her feet and when I was a little dominant with her, which suits my natural inclinations just fine. She did teach me one new trick though, I'm sure some of you can guess that. We were both busy on weekdays, but we'd spend weekends together in different hotels around our state. Then go live our separate lives during the week.

Anyway, she was very upfront when we met that she was actively seeking a job back in her home state because her mother's health was failing and the price of living in our city was getting to be too much. And eventually the day came where she got a suitable job offer. We stayed in touch for a while, but I think neither of us were under any delusions that we would pull off a LDR for any length of time. Daily text turned to weekly, turned to occasional. I suspect she found someone local, which I had actually encouraged. But I am super grateful for meeting her and feeling alive again.

Thanks for reading, I hope I didn't bore anyone because I skipped over most of the sex talk.
