OP owns up to your age. Otherwise your 49 yo self will have to date your 39 yo superego. Have a party.

When I stopped looking I found Mrs. Right. I did it just by doing the things I wanted to do in work and my personal life. There's no guarantee it will happen with that approach, but I think the odds are greater.

This advice always makes me laugh --- because PLENTY of people find their significant other when they are, in fact, looking.

I think they are trying to say, albeit in a misogynistic way, that 49 is not 39, no matter how young one feels or thinks they look.

This is absolutely true.

OP, take note. Your best bet dating pool is men 55- 65. Aim there and you should do well.

Terrible advice. I have nothing in common with men 16 years older. I am not looking for younger men, just ones my own age who are equally active and fit.

I'd love to know the age of the two people who posted this advice. I assume they were men.

Seriously recommending that a 49 year old woman looking for a fit, active guy shoot for a man 70 years old or more? Reading comprehension, folks. Also, Eva Longoria is 51. Think she should go for Harrison Ford? Seriously......

50 year old guys with a little game want nothing to do with 50 year old women. You might be able to land a 60 year old beta from dc if you are lucky. If you want to go younger, he will probably be a slob.

Well, I think any woman of any age would be lucky to land Harrison Ford!

Not true. Most 50 year old guys do not want more kids and are thrilled with women their age and most 35 year old women do and feeling desperate may go for an old guy and the ones who don’t do not want 50 year old men. Anyway my friends in their fifties are having better luck dating than my late thirties friends who have not yet found someone.

Calista Flockhart is 53. What is your point?

Pretenting to be younger than you are is foolish... OP needs to lay off these expectations and date the person not the age...

Colorado. Know several fit active guys in their fifties there, but not in DC.
