| 38 and thinking its too late Posted: 6/18/2007 10:09:12 PM | | Personally I've always thought that there was someone out there specifically for me. However, with my luck, she lives on the opposite side of the planet. Probably your girls next door neighbor, tml2c. | |

This does not necessarily mean lowering one's standard. As an example, if one doesnt date outside of his/her race, maybe one has to consider it. | |

| 38 and thinking its too late Posted: 7/6/2007 5:22:14 PM | I have been trying for 6 years to find someone interrested in marriage. That is from southern California, and white. Only offers i get are Russian, Asian woman who what me to pay there Visas. Serial Daters.... I like that! lol. Thats all I get too. Its usually 2-3 months then, Im sorry your just not what Im looking for. I have had women 41,42 yrs old wanting to have children with me. I mention marriage they run? Im sorry but Im not a sperm donator. I read your other subject. I too had my heart broken 5-6 yrs ago. I would have died for her. I had not felt such an impowering feeling in my life. I long for that feeling again. You ask what happend? She wanted me to become a swinger like her. She even offered a girlfriend. I left the party. I said take me home now. You are not the person I believed you to be. So, what do we learn from all of this. It takes a lot of time to really get to know someone. When you are searching for the right person. JD | |

| 38 and thinking its too late Posted: 7/8/2007 3:43:40 PM | I've heard of people meeting their soul-mate at 50. 12 more years to play with. Just don't waste them. Get a date for every day of this year. | |

| 38 and thinking its too late Posted: 7/8/2007 4:28:58 PM | I turned 37 in june. I have started to think like you. I have been out every night this week Bars, clubs,etc. I almost got bagged several times by the goon squad (you know what I mean). Ugly heffers that normally wouldn't have a chance in hell with me tried to buy me beer get me more drunk and take me home. I haven't gone all this time alone just to get bagged by Elsie. Wait it out bro and if you decide to lower your standard and go out on some practice dates with some girls you wouldn't normally ask out, It might be kinda fun and other women will see you out and being women will want you because you are out with someone else. IT'S NEVER TOO LATE...don't be sad. Keep your head up and enjoy being single. Watch some divorce court and be glad it's not you. | |

| 38 and thinking its too late Posted: 7/8/2007 10:01:39 PM | | The problem is everyone wants a "soul mate". I think love is who you are comofortable with AFTER all the excitement has gone. Never give up. Look for someone that can take you to that comfort zone | |

| 38 and thinking its too late Posted: 7/13/2007 10:36:42 AM | It's never to late, somewhere out there is the right person, the trick is finding them and not becoming discouraged during the search and lets have it right, you meet a lot of great people in the process, life's about the journey, not the destination! Hang in there, one day you'll find what you're looking for! Lee. | |

| 38 and thinking its too late Posted: 7/14/2007 3:45:26 PM | Well I hit 40 in just short of a month - and I look at the way I am and think should I change the way it because I'm getting older and supposedly wiser and more mature - and then I think - ah to hell with it - this is me and what I am - why should I change cos society expects me to !! So that'll be me in a few weeks time going out and painting the town a very bright shade of red and being me !! Anyone fancy coming for a drink lol  | |

I HAVE TO MUCH LOVE AND FAITH IN ME TO GIVE UP NOW.THE WAY I SEE IT GUYS DON'T REALLY START MATURING TILL OVER 30 IN THE WAY OF MARRIAGE READY AND I AM SO READY TO BE REMARRIED TO THE RIGHT MAN. GUESS THERE IS A LOT OF WEEDING TO DO YET AND MANY WOMEN ARE JUST GETTING STARTED AT 30 WANTING CHILDREN DUE TO CAREERS TODAY BUT ME I HAVE A FAMILY AND DARN SURE NOT READY TO CLOSE UP SHOP YET. I LOVE MOTHERHOOD AND WOULD ADD A FEW MORE IN A HEART BEAT IF HE TRUELY WAS MAN OF MY HEART AND CONVINCED ME I WAS LADY OF HIS AND WOULD COMMITT TO MARRIAGE.RATHER THAN A BUSINESS DEAL.ITS JUST THAT AT THIS AGE THOSE PERFECT FIGURES HAVE GONE AWAY OR IN SOME CASES NOT SO MUCH HAIR LEFT OR IN ORIGINAL COLOR . BUT HONEY IT WONT STOP ME IF HE TREATS US RIGHT. AND MY HAIR IS STILL PLENTY AND ORIGINAL COLOR.NOW IS THE TIME TO ACCEPT PEOPLE DO CHANGE AND LOOK PAST THE OUTSIDE. | |

| 38 and thinking its too late Posted: 7/15/2007 3:41:14 AM | Well i,m 50 and i,m still thinking the best is yet to come .So i,m thinking you still young and the best times are yet to come for you...so dont give up and happy | |
|
| 38 and thinking its too late Posted: 7/15/2007 5:07:24 PM |
well my thoughts on this would be . Ummm 38 is a lil young to be giving up on finding your soul mate. There are stories that people that are 60 are finding their soul mate.
MY suggestion would be not to give up!! There is someone out there for all of us.... well i live in hope!!
i think its just about the money bit when your 60 nothing else, when ur ticker is about to give up they like the money bit side of it, ur****is gone flacid by that time, and she wouldnt want sex with a crinkly old man anyway, just accuse anyone of being a pervert | |

| 38 and thinking its too late Posted: 7/15/2007 5:09:10 PM | | [qoute]im 38 in 17 days..... should i panick now or later ? nah dont panic, you had a partner unlike me, me digustingly ugly | |
|
| 38 and thinking its too late Posted: 7/16/2007 4:39:55 PM | trouble is... the older we get , we know EXACTLY what we want and wont accept anything less... ( another interpretation of a soul mate )thats why it seems harder cos we been there done it all before.. another thread says about would you accept second best just to not be alone.. nahhhh... id rather be alone unless i met my full criteria ! That sounds harsh but its fact, otherwise id be with tom****or harry by now an be hoping for the best !! I dont wanna be hoping, i actually want it  | |

| 38 and thinking its too late Posted: 7/16/2007 5:54:39 PM | Well, TM12c, I was the same way..thinking it passed me by.. I raised two children for 17 years and thought I had passed all my chances..I had dated lots and been in a couple long relationships.Truth is, I just never felt that spark..A few months ago, I met a woman who made me feel like I should..I was in awe when this woman entered the room.. Turns out, she never felt the same, but the moral is..I am still able to feel that awestruck feeling..I needed to know that still exists and I am able to feel it.. I have a whole new hope again..Never give up, pal. | |

| 38 and thinking its too late Posted: 7/19/2007 2:51:12 PM | I'm 38 to never been married.
I sometimes feel though I'm pretty set in my ways and how hard would it be to actually let someone into your life full time especially if they already had a family.
But then I think how much more it would enrich it. Double edged sword.
Always hope though and would never say never. Does feel as though time is running out some days, others feels like life is just getting more interesting.  | |
