[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]LOL yeah right.

Women in their 30s with their shit together get snapped up all the time by good and decent men.[/quote]

There aren't too many women in their 30's with their shit together and even at least averagely attractive who haven't already been snapped up by a good and decent man.  Maybe they are widows or something, or they got divorced because their husband cheated--but they'll get snapped up so quickly they'll never write on the internet about their concerns about not being datable.

That's what your comment totally misses the boat on.

The women who find themselves into their 30's, single, not knowing why, feeling undatable, and feeling scared about it--scared enough about it to seek reassurance that age doesn't matter from their internet friends--are a self-selected group.   OP is one of those women.  She already feels undatable, and it's not because two of her friends made a comment about her age.  It's because her first hand feedback from the dating market tells her, in a very direct way, that she is simply not generating the kind of interest she did five or ten years ago.[/quote]

OP had her chance to find a decent guy but chose not to.  As she turned down guys, they moved on to find other women and settled down.  Now OP doesn't have the ability to be as picky because the potential pool of men has dwindled significantly.  So she has the option of the following:
1. Try to date an already married man.  Since he's already taken he's obviously a suitable mate
2. Date a man who is divorced.  She will have to realize there is baggage and divorced guys are usually more selective if they weren't the cheaters.
3. Date from a pool of men that has fewer optimal guys because the rest are already taken.

She'll have the group of beta orbiters following her around.  The guys that she friend-zones who hang around in the off chance she'll sleep with them.  But if she hasn't already, there's a good chance she won't.  Fact of the matter is, as she ages, her market value decreases.  Unless she's okay with meeting a guys who doesn't want kids or a family because that's his choice or he already has one from a previous marriage.  [/quote]
