But as a man I can tell you that while a much younger man of course would want to have sex with you if you keep yourself fit, he generally won't be totally into you. No 38 yo guy will be proud to escort around a 45 yo divorced mother on a regular basis. I had this at 33 with a never married 40 yo. I just couldn't go through with it. I'll allow there are outliers, but generally I think what I say is the truth.

Psst I don't want the 38 year old to escort me around. I have girlfriends to hang out with outside of the bedroom.

Yeah, I'm sure some desirable 30 something guy would be lowered to slipping you his number while you were out with your equal age boyfriend.

Didn't take long for the 29 year old male virgins to find this thread. Have a snickers. You'll feel better.

Give me a break. The scenario is beyond absurd.

You know absolutely nothing. I slept with a 33 year old guy during my 50th birthday party weekend. We hook up now whenever we can, despite the 17 year age difference.

Maybe he was just horny and thought you were easy.

Always remember, ladies, that you have exponential knowledge, and sexual confidence, that you didn't have in your 20's. Personally, give me the woman with the confidence and the less than societally idealized appearance, than the much younger inexperienced bubblehead.

I feel I'm in my prime in my forties, mostly because I feel I'm in the drivers seat. I'm not nervously hoping I get married before my biological clock stops ticking. I've accomplished most of what I wanted to in life. With men, I'm not afraid of them anymore. I know they might not like me and it's okay because someone else will. I'm more worried about whether I like them. I know how to turn any bedroom experience into a happy event. I don't need a man's money, or his house, or his last name. So I guess that all boils down to more confident combined with don't give much of a shit what guys think

You and I should be friends. I'm a 51 year old woman who loves the way you articulate this.

No, the OP bemoans the continued lack of reading comprehension on DCUM. We used to have higher standards around here.

Because it wasn't part of a "big bar fight."

This OP lady is truly delusional.

And why wasn't slipping you his number while shaking your hand creepy?

Oh, for Pete's sake. I'm the OP. I've been off DCUM for a few days. He slipped me his number when I shook his hand and said goodbye it was nice to meet you. We have been texting. I am still trying to decide whether to meet him. My commitment-phobe boyfriend is 6 years older than I am, but I haven't ditched him yet.

I have frequently been told I look much younger than I am - the miracle of good genes and Botox and an amazing hair colorist (plus very thick hair most women my age don't have). I have a mid-six figures income, so I am not looking to snap up any man for his income, despite the concerned sister or whatever she was up thread about old women praying on 27 year olds or whatever it was.

You can choose to believe it happened or not. But it did. He was very subtle about the number slip into my hand, so no big bar fight. Way to ruin a positive thread, folks.

How do you know who's who, PP? Do share.

Some people, especially very confident Late 40s/Early 50s Divorced Ladies, have super natural powers. They can read your mind. They can see the junk size of anyone posting here, male or female.

Pretty much.

No one wants to need to stroke someone's ego all the time no matter what they look like. A happy, confident older woman is going to attract the type of 30 year old men who don't need someone vulnerable and easily dominated in order to feel good about themselves.

Lovely lady, there's a difference between confident and plain dumb...those are not the only two options for a happy, secure, attractive 30-year-old man: what about an equally happy, secure, attractive 30-year-old woman?

ALL of them prefer happy, secure, and attractive 30 year old men who don't spend their free time trashing women of any age. Unfortunate for you.

New to this thread. Not sure how serious some of the self-professed haters really are. But, fair warning: bat your eyes a few times, and before you know it, the glory days of youth will be a distant memory. You'll want it to happen to you, because the alternative is far worse. If we're lucky, we get to grow older. Time stands still for no man or woman. Sad, perhaps. But, true.

Guys who can't get women need women to believe that they can't do better than them. Seriously, what single 30 something guy is posting on the DCUM relationship forum? One with plenty of free time.
