Ask Dr Mo

Dr Mo Lovemore is Zululand’s own Dr Phil and possibly clairvoyant after being struck by lightning on the golf course.

He answers men’s questions on relationships and just about everything else.

Question from wary Tom:

Dr Lovemore, my wife passed away some years ago and I’ve been single ever since.

Though I’m fairly happy at the moment, my friends say I cannot grow old alone and should start dating again.

Well, Doc, should I?

I’m 45-years-old.

Dr Mo Lovemore answers:

Tom my man, to start dating again at your age is like playing Russian roulette, except there are five bullets and only one empty chamber.

The odds are stacked against you and chances are you will die!

Women who are single are so for very good reasons.

Those who have never been married are deranged and the rest… they are divorced and come with more baggage than OR Tambo Airport over Christmas – half of it lost.

Let me guess; you while away your days playing golf and watching sport and re-runs of Magnum PI on DSTV?

Most men will kill to be in your shoes, and many have, so why change it?

It is rough out there Tom!

Things have changed since the last time you played the dating game.

If you decide to get involved with a divorcee, chances are she has three kids, two ex-husbands and a lot of unpaid school fees.

And there is this new thing called Cartoon Network…

Have you seen a three-year-old throw a tantrum because you have switched over to SuperSport?

It is ugly!

But the ones to be really careful of are spinsters.

They all belong to a secret feminist society whose aim it is to neuter every single tomcat on earth.

And to get all women to stop shaving their legs.

It is called The Sisterhood of the Black Cat and the only thing they know how make are peanut butter sandwiches.

Tom, your friends are just jealous because you live like Magnum PI.

My advice to you: buy a Ferrari and live the dream!

Live the dream…
