I'll concede that .01% of women in their 40's would date a 61 yr old man without any of those reasons, but more than likely, that man has to be extra special.  Again, as you noted, there are a dearth of eligible older people to date, on both sides.  So when women have to expand that age pool, it's because they are getting desperate. It is a lot easier for older men because physical attributes aren't *as* important to women as they are to men.  Plus it just seems there are more eligible women than men.  [/quote]

Do you realize how many times you contradicted yourself?  If it were only 01% or even just 5%, I'd have probably given up on that age range.  I'll venture to guess that it's closer to 10%-15%.  But use any number you want because, unless you are a man who is actively looking to date younger women, you have no basis for your numbers except what you want to believe.  With all due respect, you have no idea what you are talking about.  I respect your opinion that maybe [u]you [/u]wouldn't date an older man, but you can't expand that to project it on all women, no matter how hard it is for you to believe.

You're right that in this area of the country, the eligible women to men ratio is among the highest, if not the highest in the country.  Lucky us.  At the same time, the women I've dated, like attractive women anywhere, are certainly not desperate to find a man.  Any one of them could find a date with her pick of plenty of interested men her age or younger, any night of the week.

I'm starting to think that I must be a real catch, if only I could figure out why.  I'm not tall, particularly fit (but not a fat slob), my face does pass for much younger, but I'm not wealthy at all.  I don't promise marriage and I'm done making babies.  Could it be that I'm just the kind of guy that some young women like to date?  Is it possible that I'm just that charming?  Because as for desperate or crazy, my crazy filter has developed and strengthened over many years of dating.  They no longer get through, believe me.[/quote]
