Fifty year old virgin

[GforGraham]

Mummy always told me to wait for the right girl to come along, there is plenty of time so no rush. I loved her and she had never been wrong about anything, so I waited. Mum was always pleased to have me living home with her.

Daddy was never here, always working somewhere else. He must have had a good job as we never seemed to do without anything, neither of us even had to work. We just pottered around the house, went shopping and other fun stuff like that, always together.

I waited just like mummy said for the right girl to come, I always thought she would knock on the front door and announce to mummy and I that she was here to marry me.

When I turned thirty I saw a news bulletin once about some tribe found that ran around the forest somewhere without any clothes on. Well once at the library I had a chance to get some alone time while mummy looked for a book. I went to the magazine section and found National Geographic mags and gosh, I finally found out what women hid under all those clothes. I wondered if white women are the same.

At forty I accidentally discovered art and photography books in the library in one of my rare alone minutes. Before mummy found me I quickly looked through some books and, yes women of all makes and models were roughly the same.

At fifty mummy passed on, she was nearly ninety. I still had never met daddy, but the money still kept arriving so I still did not need to work. Although mummy had never explained exactly what work really entailed. I just knew that daddy did it away from home and sent us money he got for doing it.

So why have I said all this? What should I do now. I am lonely without mummy, and how much longer must I wait for miss right to knock on our front door?

Please help me.

Interesting scenario ...

Go play WOW you might find her there. I'm not trying to be rude but more people have found the "the right one' playing world of warcraft. ... so they say.

If it were my character in my wild story that I would never right. I would assume that women would be more attracted to him if he were rich. But by the time he got the money instead of trying to impress people he'd get a fighter jet.

Fighter jets are chick magnets and some of them are cheaper than private jets.

Maybe going to Russia to get a ride on a MiG 29 could put him in the crosshairs of a woman or something.

I don't know man.

Tried games, ok for a few levels but they always beat me. It would be hard to join mile high club in a fighter plane, unless wanking counts. Perhaps that is why they are called top guns.

I guess older male virgins don't turn anyone on, oh well was but an idea.

I had envisaged possible outcomes:

1 He finds a book in library "How to Get Women to Beat a Path to Your Door". Some potential fun with cheesy lines and preposterous setups.

2 He notices that the librarian is female when she offers to help him. He thinks maybe this what mummy meant that a girl would come along.

3 Phone salesman convinces him to get internet connected. When that happens the cable guy tells him he also needs a computer. To cut this short, girl at comp shop takes pity on nice gentlemanly old geyser and offers to help him instal it at home. When she arrives at his front door, well mummy was right again.

4 anyway you get the idea.

There is the Steve Carell movie from 2005, "The 40 year old virgin." The movie was a comedy and maybe you could do a comedic take on a 50-year old virgin, but your character sounds more pathetic than comedic.

 

[UnkownGhost]

I still like buying the fighter jet idea. It can be done and that may draw a lot of attention from the gold - diggers. But ah well.

40 year old virgin take does sound interesting too ... actually forgot about that movie.

Just get a hooker from Backpage or Craigslist and have some fun.

Cool scenario; tragic yet vaguely humorous at the same time. If I had to compare it to a movie, it would be "Being There." (A must see if you haven't)(and one saucy sex scene with Shirley MacLean!)

I would have him never grow up, but bumble through life and love in a childlike state that we both envy and pity.

I'm curious why he was so sheltered that he was 30 and 40 before he found out what women had under their clothing. Why, mummy was 40 years older than him...daddy would atleast be that old.

Holes in the plot!

Holes in the plot!

Not holes, just other areas of "mystery" to explore!

 

[EquinoxRising]

Okay.

 

[Hypoxia]

Holes in the plot!

Have you any ideas to add?

 

[LadyVer]

Interesting story idea. It could work. But just because he's 50 doesn't make him an old geezer. Just saying.

Could go into Romance, if there's not too much Mummy mentioned.

This was just a first draft idea about possible story, not a detailed outline. Doubt they would let me post that much in a thread. Gosh an idea that has not included every single detail, hmm have read entire books that have gaping chasms in them, and these were supposedly edited and proof read before printing.
Ok some further ideas on early life, just to flesh things out for naysayers, musemufflers, those without imagination and those who enjoy just being a pest on open forums. Its alright my last vist so go your hardest. Decided my writing much more important than so much negative and silly contact. Some positives are here but that is a minority, shame really as all this site needs is what others I have been a part of on the web already have.


Mummy had him out of wedlock and 50 years ago this was a major thing.
She was older because it had been a long term affair over decades, and she thought she was past child bearing days at 40. Remember 50 to 80 years ago the everyday peoples knowledge of the human body was little at best, and medicine although modern for the times was nothing like today as today will be nothing comapered to 2050. TV and movies did not have sex, if they even had TV.
The daddy was very rich already married with family. To keep her quiet he got her to agree to certain conditions. She would never contact him or his family, friends, or tell anyone who his daddy is. He set up a trust fund in child' name with her as signatory and she could live off the proceeds of the trust. Once child became adult he would get the trust money.
Mummy after living off this fund she was scared to be left poor again. So she made certain boy would never learn about normal life where she could control things.
He was home schooled by his mummy.
He had minimum contact with others in real world. She did everything to ensure he remain ignorant.
Only very occassionally as she got older and more careless did he get small chances of seeing scraps of outside world. Eg they went to the library every week but it was not until mummy was getting older that she did not hover over him every minute. He was able to wander on his own even for just a few minutes.
Remember that mummy had controlled him completely for his entire life. That level of control would take a hell of a lot to overcome.
When she died he, now I am up to where I got to before.

Did this fill in some backstory, sheesh I just typed letting the story tell me what to write. This was not something I even thought about before. Maybe someone else can actually use a little imagination and dream up what could happen to a completely naive 50yo man.

Crikies, perhaps some hints.
A
He goes to the bank and single female asst manager helps him through gaining what should have been his anyway. He relates his life story to her as they work through the banking stuff. Now at least 2 ways this could go: 1= she takes pity and decides to guide him through his life in general to come to terms with the hard outside world. She falls in love with him and live happily ever after. OR: 2= when she sees his balance she decides to seduce him to get her hands on the money.
B
He meets a zany young woman dog walker each morning on his new started morning constitutional. They end up being friendly and she likes him. Now could go like storyline A from here.
C
Gosh let your imagination run free people, this a literary site as much as a porn, sorry erotic story site. Imagination like muscle needs exercise.

Bye.

I think you've proved your writing abilities with your published Lit stories. I like your fast creative drafting on here. Doesn't look like you need much help. Personally, I think the Mummy angle is kind of strange, but there are others who won't think so. I'm always interested in stories with older characters.

 

[barefootgirl69]

Mummy is strange, and as he starts to take care of his own life, he realizes that. Falls for a gentle but determined young lady, who wants to solve who his father is, and where this money comes from. Not a gold digger, just likes to solve mystery and help the man she falls in love with.

You are one of my favorite authors. I've no doubt I will love your story no matter how you write it!

In the original post, the main character reads like a nine year old without internet access. At 50, that's surreal past the point of creepy. My gut reaction is, written like that, it feels like anything is does is self-inflicted pedophilia no matter how many years he's lived. He's just not competent to make decisions. Ick.

You might want to (try to) read the Gormenghast Trilogy. It has the same deeply surreal air (but a very different premise - no sex.)

You story just doesn't feel like it's of earth, so I don't see how to suggest a course of action. It's a world without internet access, victoria secret catalogues or beaches. The most prudish of victorians knew more than this guy...

But if I got a postal service letter from this guy asking for help (it clearly couldn't be email), I'd... honestly I think I'd contact a doctor. His integration with the world after 50 years of total isolation is going to require professionals. And he's never going to get a girl, he's too socially malformed.
