[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am really sad about the tiny chances of partnering up with a cultured, emphatic man in my age group who is not tangled in some energy-draining co-parenting situation. In my opinion/experience, all good men between 40 and 55 are taken. Those who have never married have issues. Those who get divorced have issues (certainly including me).

[b]There really is a reason why most marriages take place between the ages of 25 and 30, when both genders are at the peak of their physical beauty.[/b]

FWIW, I am successful, in shape and take care of myself. I have an 11 year-old.

I am just very disheartened at the thought that the ship sailed for me 20 years ago. I find the whole idea of online dating repulsive - it is like a meat market out there.[/quote]

Looks change, looks fade. But the peak of physical beauty? You are confusing yourself. With all luck, you have another 40 years on this planet. All women are beautiful. There is something about a woman mid 40s+ who has life experiences, maybe a couple of wrinkles, and wants to share them plus make new ones that is enticing. Online sucks. Dating in general sucks. But finding someone who has a legitimate interest in learning more about you is great. You want a cultured man who has a modicum of self awareness? Then go to WHERE these men socialize. Concerts, museums, lectures.  [/quote]
