[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Eh, I’m an over 50 woman who is attractive, but clearly my age.  If a man isn’t into me, I’m really fine and prefer if he moves along.  [b]That comment is to you 61 y.o. Guy dating 35 year olds.[/b]  Really, I have no interest in you. I have to wonder about men who complain their first wife cut off sex.  There are usually two sides to that story, and it raises red flags to me.  I’m widowed from a good marriage that was not sexless or affectionless.  Anyway,  you can get through a lot with really good girlfriends.  I’ve enjoyed keeping company with very pleasant, accomplished gentlemen around my age, and I’m not looking for a replacement spouse.  There are a ton of women who are younger than me and more attractive than me.  So what?[/quote]

That's me, but I didn't say I date 35 year olds.  At the same time, I wouldn't exclude one should it happen, but I don't think that would work out well in the long run. [b] I said I date women in their 40s and, truth be told, that's more late 40s.  I don't exclude 50s either but the pickings are slim and saying that is what has so many riled up,[/b] but I was just answering the OPs question honestly.  So my target is really about 15 years younger, plus/minus.  I still don't understand what is so shocking about that.

Like you, I'm not looking for a replacement spouse.  I'm dating and enjoying life.[/quote]
[b]DP..no, that is not what you stated up thread.  You said you date 40 yr old women[/b], and we 40 something yr old women have been telling you that most 40 yr old women, not late 40's, but 40, wouldn't date a 61 yr old unless you were either rich, younger than you look/good looking, or they are desperate.

And no one is *shocked* that a 61 yr old man would want to date a younger more attractive woman.  But [b]you seem to be *shocked* that many 40 yr old women wouldn't want to date you[/b] [u]unless [/u]for the reasons stated.  Like  you said, there are slim pickings out there, even more so for 40 yr old women. Hence, some are willing to widen the age pool.  That's called desperation.[/quote]

Nope, from 2/10 at 2:10 this is what I said on my first post in this thread, then repeated, many times:
61 yo man. Sorry but 40s is the age I look to date. Very few woman I've seen hold up well into their 50s and past menopause.

I'm not shocked at all that a woman in her 40s doesn't want a man 10-20 years older.  It's logical that probably most of them don't.  I'll concede that.  I'm just shocked at the disbelief of so many of you that when it does happen, it's doesn't mean the woman is crazy, desperate, or found herself a sugar daddy.  Some of you are really bashing woman who don't fit your narrow beliefs about what makes a good relationship, and that's sad to me.[/quote]
