[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They are very pretty, educated, professionally successful, and have interesting hobbies.

But they have few social skills. They don't know how to date. They don't know how to communicate well. They don't know how to be with someone in a non-work capacity. They have no idea about how to sustain a long-term, loving relationship with one other person. No man her age wants to teach her how, either. Instead, a man will look at her and think there must be a bad reason why she's never had a long-term relationship. Next.

That's the cold, hard truth. [/quote]
yep, that was me. I didn't know what to talk to guys about other than work stuff, news and current events.  I took myself way too seriously.[/quote]

So what are we supposed to talk about?  /middle aged women lacking social skills.

PP here, well, now that I'm in my early 50s, I have my kids, my house, summer plans,  some traveling I've done,  to talk about.  When I was 30, I didn't have any kids, hadn't traveled much, and was apartment hopping.[/quote]

Did you watch movies? Television shows? Listen to music?  Read books?[/quote]
Yea, movies and tv are somewhat safe topics, and I did talk about those, but it was also about feeling comfortable with the other person to talk about things like that because what you watch is kind of personal, IMO, but I guess it would show how compatible you might be.

Like when I was 30, if a guy talked about watching jack@ass, I'd be completely turned off. I'd feel the same about women who watched The Real Housewives, too.[/quote]

that's some weird stereotyping!

people usually talk about themselves - their lives, where they've lived, what's been important to them. things they find funny. i guess tv and movies, too - or, when i was younger, music. you know - people just TALK. they don't just go dur dur dur me man me like other men getting hit in nuts.[/quote]
yea, like I said, I'm a little bit socially awkward, but if a 30 yr old started talking about those kinds of shows, I'd be turned off.   [/quote]

I just don't understand why you think a 30 year old would be talking about those kinds of shows. And use it as a reason not to get involved with other people!
