How hard is dating for late thirties childless women?

[Anonymous]

Is this a serious post? Women always have an easy time dating because men are the pursuers.

I cannot even tell you how blown away I have been in the best way by the people I have met so far. I actually almost made a detailed post about it to give people in similar boats hope.

I'm 47 years old divorced man with 2 kids and I have been surprised by my successes on the dating market as well. However I am still single and I need to figure out why I keep attracting women who want to be married and have children. I have no desire to remarry and have more kids so I'm choosing to remain single.

I am a 47-year-old divorced woman with two kids and I’m not dating you because when I date, I date men who are in their early 30s who don’t have children. I’m not blending any families so I have no interest in a man who is my age who has kids when I can date much younger without those complications. I won’t ever remarry so there’s really no reason to date anybody my age. I constantly have about four men who are constantly wanting attention who are early 30s. no reason to go higher. (I don’t sleep with multiple people at once— or even at all right now—but what I’m saying is that I have no lack of interest of younger men without kids, which is just easier to deal with.

I guess congrats. For the life of me, why would early 30s men want to date (where you aren't sleeping with them) someone that is 47 with children? Are you paying for everything?

I am attractive and look a lot younger. I have not paid for anything. Why? They want to sleep with me. My kids are not a factor. no man ever has met my kids. When I do date, it’s on free time without kids. I have slept with men this age in the past (one at a time and usually for about a usually for about a year to 18 months) and even slightly younger—and I’m the one who cuts it off—not them.

No man is pursuing women two decades older unless they can't do better. Sorry, but you are just an easy piece of a$$ to them. Or you are paying for everything.

I look better than most women 15 years younger. I pay for nothing. Not an easy piece of …I can compete with younger women. That is all.

I’m dying to see the online profile of this poster who always brags about looking better than 30 yo !

I'd show you if my name was not there. My direct reports do not look like me. If a man had a choice, it would be me every time. People younger than 20 and older than 50 always mistake me for early 30s. I am not. But yes, I look it.

Younger than 20? I have older teenagers - they don’t have any meaningful understanding of the differences between 30, 40, and 50. Did you at that age?

I meant younger than 30. More like age 27-55 often mistake me for early 30s. Work setting. All the time. Both late 20s people to mid 50s people are shocked when I tell them my age. Most people assume I am not old enough for my job. They think I have less experience than I do.

Lol, and you really believe that?

"Young" people have no idea what 30, or 35, or 40 looks like. None. I'm a 44 year old high school teacher and last week a student said something like, "But you're in your late 20s, right? Or early 30s?" It isn't because I look like I'm in my late 20s or early 30s. It is because a 17 year old just sees "old, but grandma." They have no idea and probably believe that 44 year olds have white hair and wrinkles. Similarly, the early 20s student teachers look 17 to me: they don't look different from my juniors and seniors. To them, I could be anywhere from 30 to 45: they don't know what ageing looks like.

Also, sorry to tell you, but people lie. They are flattering you. In guessing age, NOBODY ever says the age they actually think you are. They say a much younger age and wait for you to correct. This is a kind of etiquette.

Finally, my son worked in a liquor store during grad school, and he said the middle aged women always used to act so flattered and pleased when he asked for ID, but...he HAD to ask for ID, no matter what the customer looked like. It was very obvious to him that these women were middle aged, but they believed that being asked for ID meant they looked 10 or 20 years younger.

+1. I (51M) went to a funeral last weekend and met the daughter of the deceased next door neighbor's. We have a son who is a freshman in college and my wife asked the daughter what she wanted to study when she went to college. She just dead panned us and said:

"I'm 24 and just finished grad school last May. Epidemiology."

We all laughed hard about it, but we genuinely thought the woman was 16/17.

Point being- once you are out of range it is quite hard guessing ages.

Some people do genuinely look young. My daughter is in a dance class and there was a helper who I thought was a teenager. I thought she could be in high school, maybe college. The woman is married with 3-4 kids. I was shocked. I think many people were surprised when she was pregnant and even more shocked to learn she already had a few kids. I don’t know how old she is. I guess she could have been a young mom and be 25 with a few kids. You would think she is the babysitter, not the mom.

I have a friend who is very petite, thin and has a young face with young style. She also could totally pass as a teenager. She is 40. When she is with her parents and elementary son, everyone assumes she is the older sister of her son. Her mom looks youthful and her dad looks old. She said most people think her dad married someone younger and had an oops baby or second marriage.

Pp again. I do think your age and when people are different ages, you really can’t tell. Someone who is 20 or 30 or even 40 may blend the same way I can’t always tell a 60 or 70 or 80 year old.

My 77 year old mother recently mistook my son’s friend’s dad as a sibling. My son is 15 and dad is almost 50. Dad is thin and not very tall and was dressed similarly to the teens and my mom assumed the dad was a friend of her grandchild. To my almost 80 year old mother, a 15 and 48 year old looked the same - young.

One kid who is out of college and not very present in his life (she’s happy about this). He is in his early 50s, very fit and active, and is engaging and fun. The “catch” is he is Indian, short, and bald. My friend doesn’t mind - he is spoiling her to the moon and she’s desperate to have kids, and with him she is set financially for life. But I think a lot of American women in this demographic on DCUM may rule him out due to his ethnicity and/or looks. So depends on how picky you are I suppose!

Did he propose or they are just dating ? I dated couple Indian men of this type: they were extremely conservative and relied on their moms’ and friends’ opinions about who they should marry.

This is my understanding of Indian men as well. My friend wasn’t Indian so he could never marry her. She of course broke it off with him and he eventually married another Indian woman.

I am aware. I did not realize my attractiveness level in my 20s. It is sad it took until 40 to notice. I am not ever remarrying but it is nice that men of all ages think I am attractive. I know it won’t last but I am glad I started noticing before I am really old. Always been a workaholic and my mom and grandma were stunningly beautiful so growing up it was always like “no one can be as beautiful as them.” I am not am quite movie-star beautiful (my grandma looked like Ava Gardner with lighter hair), but I am close to that level, it just took me until late in life to realize it. It is validating. I did not know when I was younger, so I will enjoy it for the short time it will continue to last.

Eeek. Or work on valuing the things about you that have nothing to do with your physical beauty?

I had two books published by an actual publisher before the time I was 30–when you actually had to have talent to get a book deal. It’s pretty sad that I didn’t realize I was beautiful until I was 40. I’m allowed to have that realization. I never doubted that I was smart and accomplished, and assuming that someone’s focusing on beauty when they are older, does not mean that they don’t have anything else going for them.

Men care less about women's achievements. You could have had an illustrious career by 30 that won't impress most men. They will rank your beauty and physical attributes before your career/money.

Good men will be very interested in who a woman is, including her interests and careers. Beauty opens doors but it never seals the deal.

Some men absolutely care about your education and career. They won’t choose an ugly woman who has a good job but I have seen many hot woman who don’t get the ring. They are good enough to date but not good enough to marry.

My friend has a few cousins who are below average and overweight and seem to have given up on men. They don’t care about their looks and enjoy food and travel without a man. They are late thirties. They have good enough jobs to support themselves and seem content without a man.

This is such a bizarre (yet typical) DCUM thread. Women cannot tolerate other women recognizing their own good looks or believing they appear younger than they are. Just bitter nasty women cutting down another woman. When I was in my 20’s I worked as an attorney with a divorced woman who was 47 with 2 teenagers. She was drop dead gorgeous and habitually got hit on by 20-something hot men. She was simply a gorgeous woman who genuinely aged incredibly well. And she was a successful attorney. Why is that so hard to accept?

If they are overweight, they don’t have much of a choice

Because this PP is extremely self-centered and insecure at the same time. Truly beautiful people don’t brag about dating much younger, how hot they are etc. And it’s pointless where nobody can even see her.

Someone commented: "Eeek. Or work on valuing the things about you that have nothing to do with your physical beauty," which is what I was responding to. No kidding men only care about what I look like. That is why they are predators. I have more interest than I want due to my looks and I am no longer interested in a relationship as a result.
