Yes woman love the older men out there, they are sexy, honest for the most part, just looking for, not Mr.Right but some one genuine......................and why is it that younger men go for the older woman......................good heavens..............
When we say that we want older men and more experienced gentlemen.............to treat a woman right.............only just a few out there, not sure where they are .........
Having fun on POF though......

Don't we all just want someone pretty much like ourselves but with enough differences to make it interesting and strengths and weaknesses that compliment our own?


OP
Great insight.. and it has nothing to do with age.

The same thing I looked for in a man who was 20, someone who is kind, loving, responsible, fun to be around, great in bed, makes a killer omlet!

I am over 40 and the most important thing in life for me is honesty. Are there any honest men out there? If so please contact me. Why do men feel they have to lie at any age? Give me an honest man and I will be happy. So in case I've not been clear I WANT AN HONEST MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tell me about it. I'd like to meet someone who doesn't have a secret, second life with either men or drugs or both in it. I mean, flakes are for blizzards, right?

That they aren't playing mind games. The games should have ended long time ago when they were younger.
Looking for a man who enjoys sharing a conversation together.
Also enjoys doing things together.

The same thing we looked for in men when they/we were younger. Men who could make us laugh; men who shared our interests, at least some of them; men we could talk to about any and everything, and who felt they could do the same; men with whom we felt safe and secure, and I'm not talking about money here.

I married a man I'd known for 8 years, we talked about everything. I delivered the morning paper and he was a garbage man. He'd worked for the same company for 14 years. We got married on a Friday, he quit his job on Monday. In the 7 years we were married he never had another decent job. But the reason I divorced him was that the last time he had an opinion of his own was when he said, "I do." From that time on he let me do all the thinking, talking and deciding. He never gave me any input. It was always, "Whatever you think." I don't want that kind of man again.

Four years later I met a man who could make me laugh, who was a talented woodworker (we worked together for many years), he was hitchhiking his way back to Alaska (he sure didn't have money), we were together until he died (slightly over 15 years). He was injured (6 years before he died) and was virtually unable to do anything; I did what needed doing. It was a partnership. He could still make me laugh and he still had opinions about everything, which he wasn't shy about expressing. He was there for me and I was there for him and that is what I look for in a man of any age.

I am looking for the same thing in the 4th decade that I was looking for in the previous decades and that I am looking for in the future. My focus is that I am living the best life ever. I know if I live my best life I will eventually meet someone who is also living the best life. Can you imagine the potential of two people living their best life hooking up! I do not need to worry about the future, it will happen anyway. I just need to be the best that I can be. thanks S.

Hello, that statement chino06 made about women over 40, dating guys 21 is kinda hard for me to believe. Most 21 year old guys are NOT really mature yet, still don't know what they want in life. Women must date them for wild sex, or to make themselves feel young again. I really don't get it. Any way, Merry Christmas to all and a Happy New Year! A.

This must be a Cali thing because none of the 40 year old women that I know here in South FLorida want anything to do with a 21 year old man. True they are prettier to look at but does one really want to take one home?

I would hope that by the time a guy has his 40th birthday he's figgered out what he wants to be when he grows up, how many kids he wants and has already had them, knows how to kiss a woman, knows what to say, when to say it and how it should be said, and last but not least, knows when it's better to just keep his mouth shut.

Hmmmm, What a great question!
I think for both genders, what you want when you are young, and then become older changes.
I know, when I was younger, I really didn't know what I wanted, lol. I just never really thought of it. If I fell in love, well, that was good enough.
But as you grow, make mistakes, look back, you see what is really important in a relationship.
After I turned 40, I really started to look for THAT certain type of man to spend the rest of my life with.
I looked for some one that was secure in themselves, honest, would love me for me, and not what they wanted me to be.
I wanted NOT to be in a relationship where there was a constant power struggle.
I found that.

Someone who doesn't consider dating a hobby..........

Last guy I had feelings for thought dating and hobby is in the same category. Well I discovered he takes his hobby to many homes....well let's just say I keep learning lessons and there really isn't a list for me......rather that feeling you get and the trust!

The desire for me is, in part, for a man who:
-wants an equal partner
-has similar values-- this may seem fuzzy but I do know what my values are so really it's not
-lives the Golden Rule
-is 'real'
-is relatively happy with his job/has a job
-has similar viewpoint on kids, money, etc
-has his priorities straight-- wife over mom (better be single right now-- man oh man); family over friends; as Suze Ormon says-- people before money; money before things
-non-judgmental, accepting attitude toward others
-etc (I just had to add the etc.)


Very noble sentiments, however I've found that a lot of women, not all, look for the bad boys or guys that are not that honest. I am a very honest person and really does exhibt the things you say you are looking for, but find that women my age are often turned off by the same things. I just want to find a "normal" woman that really wants a relationship instead of a "project". :-)

What do women over 40 really want? Not what they say they want, but really want?
