[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This. I'm married with kids but I do a lot of activities. No shortage of single guys, but they don't want the type of woman that is still single at 40+. Usually these women were career-obsessed, or list/requirement obsessed, or both in their prime dating years and they'd focus on all of the wrong things. As they've aged, instead of loosening up they have become (understandably) bitter. That's not attractive. There are, of course, successful, confident, sexy women at 40+ but they have no shortage of admirers, much like their 20-30 something counterparts do. Personality and confidence are huge factors here.

I remember my male friends in their early to mid 30s were looking for a life partner. Their female peers that were still single but not by choice sometimes were too but they came with a laundry list of requirements. Too short? Back to the pond you go. Not working in the right firm/agency/office? Not ambitious enough. Women do a disservice to each other by saying that the perfect guy is out there. He's not. He does not exist. There are lots of men that can be perfect for YOU but usually it involves some patience and training. If you enjoy someone's company and they can be a good partner to you, at any age, just run with it. Ignore the list.

I'm Jewish also, so I get that aspect. I did marry another Jew but I also have a lot of friends that are happy with non-Jews. This is a very personal issue and it depends on how you and your partner want to raise a family.

Then there is the last and touchiest point: there just are more women than men in this city. 40 something men are able to get 30 something women. But these then goes back to loosening requirements.[/quote]

Yep. These are list people, a decade past their looks prime, encountering other list people.The unicorns will hook up, and the left-overs will be bitter with no sense of irony.[/quote]
