mizbex~~~~~ Umm, I wasn't referring to your post. It was to a prior posting,
to be exact, I think the one named "Freesea".

Stepenmech, sorry for the confusion. However, I have to say Freesea's post does not come across as negative, from a woman's point of view. Albeit, it does comes across as humorous, it offers a comprehensive and insightful list of what women are looking for in men over 40. Just my opinion.

Make me laugh and I'm yours LOL But seriously, it all depends on the attraction, not just the physical but the chemistry found through conversation, laughter, and all the senses.

Good morning


I think the OP,asked what you look for. NOT what your not looking for.Never a good thing , to start out on a negative tone, puts out a bad vibe and makes for hostility. Because that is how it is persived.


Hemmm... I wasn't being negative...Over 40 I hope to find a man that may have overcome some of these exact hangups guys much younger take so much pride in..


I'm a smart ass sometimes, a straight talker mostly, and am looking for the same in a woman.


Nice profile comment, stephenmech...


~~~~ mizbex~~~~I most certainly will, hun....


newandreadyforu


- will you look past whatever minor physical flaws he has and appreciate him for what he is instead of passing him by like you have done so many others.


Good comment, hun...Been there, tried that too...I was a pretty girl...and perhaps all the way into my late 30s let physical attraction rule..Then thought, hemmm maybe I need to look for more than just physical attractiveness.. and had let others pass by..but low and behold, less attractive men do not always compensate by being a "better catch."

Minor physical flaws~~ we all have those hun...looks fade...but I think I have seen it in enough profiles and on this forum to many times to pretend we are not all holding out for that special spark of some attraction with someone... If this really wasn't the blantant truth, you would see profiles drop by the day here!!! Some call it "chemistry." One thing for damn sure, it may not come through with just a profile pic..it can give just a general idea, and probably doesn't do some peep "justice." But I think this place does have the disadvantage of selling us all a little short, because of that very fact..Most times peeps personalitys can really shine through, and be captivating, making their whole persona very much more attractive..or eyes that peirce the soul, and speak volumns of what awaits inside that person...I have seen smiles that can take your breath away, and no matter what, make you smile back...Doesn't have to be on a perfectly shaped or modeled person to be appreciated...or attractive..

Would I give back all that I have asked in a person? Yes...and I have..I just hope to find someone to appreciate it..

OK very funny, But I make no bones about being a smartazz, at least people know it when I speak it. So I didn't get yours right off the bat, it happens, but I really wasn't attacking you or anyone for that matter. Just seemed your list was what you don't want, rather than what you do want.

And what's wrong with my profile comment? Too basic to understand?

Albeit, from a woman point of veiw? I will never have that. Obviously.

As a man, it seemed like more male bashing, that all.

People who say looks dont matter are talking absoloute nonsense!...If you dont find a person physically attractive then the most they are ever going to be is a friend.

I used to think women wanted a provider, then a companion. My ideas have changed with maturity and experience. I believe we all just want to be wanted. Taking the time to take the time.

AgedWonder you are wise beyond your years my dear!

Not really sure what women look for but do know we all have to kiss a lot of frogs before we find our princess or prince, we are all different in looks, attitudes and lifestyles, none of us are perfect BUT when we meet the right person we will know, quite often by just talking and looking in their eyes. As we get older we look for companionship, love and someone we can be comfortable with ,whether it is in the bedroom or just shopping , someone who becomes a part of us and we become part of them. Someone to stay young with whatever your age. they are out there,....

You have a brain, a heart and soul, Steve, which makes you a lot more attractive to this woman over forty than that conceited jerk whose post follows yours. I regret you're on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean from me!

steve133: Very well said! I believe that came from your heart and, to me, that's what is attractive in a man!

I'm 54 years old, divorced for six years and, quite frankly, haven't dated since my divorce. The reason? I guess not putting myself out there to meet anyone. What I would like to find in a man would be kindness, compassion, friendship, companionship, respect, trust, well-groomed, good hygiene, confident (very sexy). Lots of people tell me that is a ridiculous "list" but, hey, it's what is important to me.

I wish everyone the very best! Kathy

My eyes are pretty good and you ain't too bad, Ebenezzeer-uh,Packleader. Your smile is great and your little belly is cute. But your smartazz attitude is best:

Keep your bible thumping to yourself,Im not interested.
Maybe men and women both can benefit from failing eyesight and the humility that SHOULD come with age.

Steve, dear, thanks for considering me a "lady". I take it as a compliment. Methinks, however, you may not have read all of my other posts! I can also be very bratty!

Moraima-----You are too young to be so hard about life. Wait until you perhaps 50 years older. I don't think you want a man, you want a robot. I am sorry for you.

In the many years that my late husband and I were married he once asked me " why do you love me" I guess that was a fair question. I told him this.,

When your not with me I find it hard to breath. Each moment that I am away from you seems like forever and day.

When you walk into a room I feel safe. I know that nothing can harm me.

When you hold my hand my heart beats so fast that I am afraid that it will come through my chest.

When you kiss me and put your arms around me my knees go weak, and I have to hold on to you tighter.

When our son was born, I thanked God that you were the father of this perfect creature.

When each day is through knowing that you will be the one that lies down beside me and keeps me safe and warm.

I know that you will be here today, tomorrow and for ever more.

When I am unlovable, you still love me.

Now I don't know if that is love, but it sure is close. He was satisfied. :heartyou

That is what I am looking for in a man over 40 or 50 or 60. I DO know what I want in a man. And if he comes with a few flaws that's okay to. I have a few, and we both will over look them because that is love. We will share things that no one else can. We will face each trial that comes along and we will emerge triumphant over all obstiicals. Time will not only make us lovers, but friends. Friends that accept each other for what they are and not what they think they want. I am not perfect, and I don't expect him to be either.
