[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you were focusing on things in a weird way. Stop thinking so hard and self-consciously about it. Unless you go to therapy and have an expert helping you. For some reason you think you’re not datable or that you were less appealing because of your age. I mean to a certain extent that’s true, but not entirely. Especially in a place like DC. Tons of people are still single in their 30s. It’s like you’re going into dating situation with some assumption that the guy is looking at you like there’s something wrong with you instead of seeing yourself as a catch. Relationships are hard. It makes sense that it’s hard to find someone to spend the rest of your life with. It doesn’t mean there’s something wrong with you that you haven’t. Also, as a woman in my mid-40s, I [b]just wanted to tell you that I had this idea that once you had 40 your dating life is over. I actually found the dating in my 40s has been easier. The problem with mod thirties dating is that it is full of pressure and lots of guys are already married. In your 40s the divorced guys start hitting the market.[/b] I just wanted to tell you that because I don’t want you to feel like you have some dire deadline after what she won’t ever find anyone today. I mean I’m a little different because I don’t care about not having kids, but I feel like I spent my 30s with 40 is a big looming deadline at which point I would be totally undesirable and I have found that to be completely untrue.[/quote] +1000 Married mid39s, divorced at 36 with 2 kids. Dating is going better and more fun than ever![/quote]
