| What do women look for in a man after 40? Posted: 6/19/2006 10:32:35 PM | People actually look??? Wow, what a concept... I date men of all ages and backgrounds, yes there are certain ones I find attractive, but my tastes are so ecclectic I don't know that I could pin point them, but I certainly tried when I filled out my profile (though i've changed it for the 20th time last night). Sometimes we waste so much time looking and thinking we know what we want that it continues to elude us. I swore I would never marry or have any chidren, it took him 8 yrs to convince me to marry him and we had 4 children. Sometimes we are so busy making plans that life just happens around us. What is that old saying? Man makes plans as God laughs? Yea, that just about covers it... | |

Women seem to still want all the hoopla with bell and whistles... Age is something that I give very little regard to now .. I figure I am a great catch and if they want me they will come.. | |

I don't wanna join the circus....just meet someone compatible that can make me think, laugh and tingle. Not necessarily in that order. :)

| What do women look for in a man after 40? Posted: 9/21/2006 6:56:56 AM | | Hi... Being a man and over 40... I have many different interests, likes and dislikes. I feel that with everyone being different that what WE like to do would vary as to who WE are. I don't look for someone to date and say well we gotta do what me and ?? used to do. Everyone is unique and that makes it all the more worthwhile... I am not sure if I have made any sense or not... lol Good Luck Everyone! Mel | |

| What do women look for in a man after 40? Posted: 9/21/2006 7:50:14 AM | Ok men, here is what we are looking for...But I am only going to tell you once so listen up... We want a man that has a great scence of humour, has a complete understanding for PMS. He has to be through his mid life crissis, we are way to old to keep starting over, times a ticking... We want love, understanding, and,someone to keep our feet and backs rubbed. By this age most of us have been through all the drama we can handle and just want someone who can make us laugh and make us feel wanted. we don't need to be needed BUT WANTED. We don't want someone to live with, we want someone we can't live without! If you can afford to pay your own way and ours some of the time even better. ( Ok our way most of the time) Just kidding. I have $12 Bucks I'll pay my own way. You must be able to hold an intelligant conversation, and have at least 3 things in common. You should have the same values and NOOOOOO small children to raise(unless that is something you have in common). And last but not least a great relationship with your self. If you don't like you how can we? I hope this clears things up for all you men out in the pond. Now bait up and fish. Good Luck All | |

| What do women look for in a man after 40? Posted: 9/21/2006 2:49:18 PM | Oh I love men who are older much more experienced in life...but for me they have to be in there fifties...as I am 50. Someone who can say "been there, done that" not the other way around !! I love a man who nows know the difference between a healthy relationship, and an unhealthy one. Yes, a man who admits his mistakes from his past as we all have them...and is will to change them. and not repeat them, and forward them into the next relationship. In other words, we have learned something from it all, but willing to get bacl up and start over. I have to respect a man in order to love himm ...So respect is so important to me. Someone who can "sorry" when he is wrong, and defineatley doesn't hold grudges, I hate that one. I've a great sense of humour...so I also need and want some laughter around.. Though I love laughter and fun, I defineatly would look for ( stability and security in the long run( as we here are just looking for the same thing...we all want to meet someone but we do think twice , before upsetting are life, or we don't want to upset our apple cart, so we definately need reassurance if we get thing together...  | |

| What do women look for in a man after 40? Posted: 9/22/2006 1:40:38 AM | I will not be satisfied what what ever comes my way. I'm old and picky. The Lord God will give me the desires of my heart. He has be faithful to me in so many many ways. I'm moving in with my old 39 y/o gf and her four beautiful daughters. So I won't be bored living there. And I will still go onto night law school and own two car dealers one in San Diego, CA and one in this area. And practice law in San Diego, CA and in this area. My God gave me a brilliant brain. I shall use it to the extreme. Lucky man, whoever hooks up with my police background family. Can you handle a old tiger?  | |

| What do women look for in a man after 40? Posted: 9/22/2006 7:01:10 AM | from the time i was 20 it's never changed for me...
now, over 50, i still seek the man w/the sensitivity of a poet, and the courage
of a warrior....
it's the man who would rather die than ever hurt me...
i've had it twice and lost it, i feel that i'm a good person and deserving of it again, so it will happen according to the "laws of the universe"...
it's never a matter of "if" for me bur rather "when"...
i'm grateful that i know exactly what to look for, and have a sixth sense, so i don't waste my time on losers...
no spring chicken here! .....soooooo time is of the essence...

| What do women look for in a man after 40? Posted: 9/22/2006 1:40:05 PM | | I would be looking for a more settled down type of man who still has the physical capabilities of making love. I know from experience that for some men that may be a problem. | |

| What do women look for in a man after 40? Posted: 9/22/2006 4:52:25 PM | | For me, I am looking for a man who has his act together. Knows what he wants in life & isnt afraid to go after it. I agree with 1jay1 he is looking for a real woman, not a trophy. He must have a steady job, not looking for someone to support him. | |
