Is there love after 44 ?Page 2 of 4    (1, 2, 3, 4)
Nobodys going to belive that Cotter. Not untill you take ALL the blocks off your profile.

Nobody going to believe that because ALL girls from ten to a hundred and ten are always grizzling about slim pickings.

Nobody's going to belive it on this board in paticular where the men still outnumber the women by two to one.

cotter....Just a tip, i would get rid of the 'rej' part cause POF is full of it, and that can be a scarey thing for a guy to read in yer profile.

I have talked to a few guys about this subject..they prefer older women that don't expect the house..the kids..the white picket fence fantasys..they have their own place and have time to spend with him alone...no kids..no grandkids..just him...

They want the long term casual relationships that don't push them into any legal entanglements...mine is mine....yours is yours...both working and enjoying each others company and taking vacations together occasionally...

does that work? or not?...my guess is ..as long as they are still on single sites and looking and talking to other women/men..your guess is as good as mine...

As a guy not wealthy and working on an acting career.I would say no.I do believe many women do have an advantage because up to a point the woman usually picks the man.If you aren't having any luck? I suggest you look at what you are doing and what you want of a man.Maybe you need to be more open and compromise?For men looks are usually most important with the ability to please her with reasonble efford and someone nice.

But it does to men and many women.I have also found as women age they want more of a man.They may not be aware of it but just see them in action.

Being actor I meet a lot of young women and they are usually nicer people in their interaction with me.I have no interest in dating them plus they wouldn't be interested in me.I find a lot of women in their 40's and up are jaded and demand to much of men.They are very quick to reject a man.Always asking a lot of questions so they can walk away.I also find when you write these women? You usually will not get a reply.

shiloh44.... If a chick says on her profile she's not very good at handling rejection, then that is pretty scary for a guy, think about it..........

@Sparticuss ...
Nobodys going to belive that Cotter. Not untill you take ALL the blocks off your profile.
The IE block is the only one there and the mortar on that block has already dried ... can't get it off!


Nobody going to believe that because ALL girls from ten to a hundred and ten are always grizzling about slim pickings.
Slim pickings for me ... the guys my age are glued to the doggone couch and the TV remote got stuck in their hand right after they applied the glue to their butts.

Well then you better come and scoop me up before that other guy gets in front of you.

@juliet ... done! Thanks for the tip.

Of course there is!! The selection will be lower, but all it takes is one. And cotter, yes you should try the younger men. Some of them are very mature-minded, a couple of my friends have married younger guys and have great relationships.

Hi Shiloh

As you can see from the replies here, of course there is love after 44... love does not discriminate regarding age.....

but, the eyes tell it all........
firstly, you have to be happy with yourself or to say it better, not be afraid to be alone. once you can be comfortable being "alone"... - ie.. not being by yourself, but still alone... contentment shows in the eyes... maybe I'm not explaining or saying it properly, but if you are desperately seaking a mate... THAT too shows in your eyes.... that would be enough to scare any man away.....

anyways, all the luck in the world to you....... just go out and enjoy your life - someone said to "have fun like it's the last day of your life"....... and that's true too..... life's too short to be miserable, so go out and ENJOY your life......

Well damn.. its about how you feel and act to you know? I mean if your over 40 or 50 but **** and moan about aches and pains and kids and grandkids and investments and losses .. well shit.. who wants to hear that at ANY age? Let go of the drama, let go of the baggage, get into new hobbies, smile a lot. It worked for me, it's gotta work for you!

My trouble is.. I like the younger guys!

I don't think it is ever too late for someone to be in love...I think we have to be open to new opportunities to meet people and to be open minded to our differences and our likenesses. Forget about our ages, and just focus on the wonderful feeling we get from being with the one we are with.

After 44??

I met this adorable little elderly woman the other day. She was just glowing and we got to talking. She was telling me that she was getting married and she was 73! She was giddy and precious and so full of enthusiasm.

I wouldn't get too concerned for at least 29 more years! LOL

I hope so as well.

It seems to me though women this age play more games than they younger ones. This is covered on thread after thread after thread. Women posts suggestive pics then get angry when men react to them; Women say they want long term relationships then all of a sudden decide they just want friends. I'm sure men play the same thing, but I"m tired of it.

Let's face facts, I (at least) am getting too old to play around. If I meet someone and we hit it off, let's move on it. I don't want to waste time that I don't have any more. "The rest of our lives" is not as long now as it was when I was 25-30.

There might be. If you place a bag over your head and write on it that you are 24.

shiloh44,

I hope the hell there is! Hay girl, if you lived closer, I would be proud to chase you around a room! Keep your chin up, and mind and heart open.

A little story is in order; In the 1960's a reporter was interviewing the then President of GM (General Motors), and that year they sold some 7 million cars and trucks. The reporter asked him " Is it true you sold every vehicle you made this year? I mean every car and truck, down to the the last lime green Belaire?" Yes, the Pres said, "There is an ass for every seat"

End of lesson,

Bob

What the heck is the 'take care, and best wishes to everyone'. Maybe that is the problem, you think we are your friends. We are nothing more than light fragments on a monitor. You need to get some 'real' people and talk to them in person. Strangers are just friends you have not met yet. It is a numbers game. Every 1000 men you meet maybe 1 will be the guy you like. (I am just kidding about the friends comment, yes I am your friend )
