| What do women over 40 want?
Posted: 12/26/2005 8:02:31 PM |
I believe that we want...to feel like we are attractive and interesting...I misread a lot of signals...but it's because men are so vague with their comments
txtori41, you are a dear woman and quite pretty, I think. But you typify the women I am finding who want me to demonstrate that I find them attractive, but if I do not meet one or two undisclosed criteria, I am out of the picture because it is my own fault for "being too vague with my comments"
I have a good friend who is "dating" a man in the slammer, having corresponded with him first, and who now insists she would try me but I am not black. Yet I get very obvious sexual signals from her when I run into her at various places. It makes me crazy, and it is unfair. Because she is "taken" but tries to appear "available".
I think Ron was right about women shopping for men the same way they shop for goods. They want a bargain, but wind up often making an emotional, not logical (and often not very kind) decision. I am not a pair of ill-fitting jeans, just a tad shabby and careworn.
I am not bitter about this but after a while the pain is unpleasant. | |

An interesting, gender-based value judgment. An emotional decision is as valid as a logical one. | |

to 'SOME' of the guys we've turned down over the years. 
"No thanks! I would never date a loser such as yourself....
however, damn you're hot and I would be willing to have sex with you a couple of times." | |

....however, we have to draw the line on the 'yes' ones somewhere don't we?
We do have to eat, sleep and work after all! | |

Posted: 1/2/2006 6:19:14 AM | | I have never thought of it as shopping. But I guess it could be looked at like that. If that is the case we just want the right fit. The same I am sure as men do and yes I have noticed that I have in the past picked the same type of person and am trying very hard to be more open to the possibilities but still I like someone who is funny intelligent, confident and kind but not someone I can run over..or who tries to run over me ..does that make any sense? | |

Posted: 1/2/2006 6:46:18 PM | Speaking as a member of the "over 50 group", we want many of the same things that younger women do: love, responsibility, respectability, trustworthiness, companionship, affection, more, I'm sure. But in middle age, some other things become more important, and less negotiable, like sobriety, fidelity, character, communication, dependability, understanding, gentleness. Learning what we don't want is a task for young adults, in their 20's. Then come the career, finding our voices, talents, gifts, inner beauty and wisdom, and we become less patient with men who aren't what we do want. Some of us find out that sexuality is more important to us than we thought it was when we were young, or at least the ability to make love is important in the person we choose as our mate/partner. For others, it may not be an issue, with comfortable, friendly companionship being more important.
Men aren't the only ones guilty of vague communication. My late husband and I fought for 15 years over birthdays and Christmas presents. I didn't know what I wanted (then) and he was supposed to know because he loved me. Now, if I didn't know what I wanted, how would I know when I got it? | |

Posted: 3/3/2006 7:27:55 AM | I am now 49 years old;,,,,,,,I have typed this before and I'll type this again, If I live too be 149 years old,I will sertainly never,ever fully understand what a woman wants!Weather she is over fifty or under fourty! If a woman doesn't know how, am I too know! But,now my lovely new bride of almost two months is soon too be 53 years old and all I can possibly do is just keep her as happy as she wants too be! And all I can do is try! And any man who says he knows about a lady,doesn't know what he's chatting about either! 'Cause all any man can do is think he knows how too treat a woman and that's all he can do! I guess some guys just simply don't understand (and or some woman). That you realy don't know what you got till it's gone! What a shame that we try too hard too see what's on up on the other side of that hill,instead of just being content with what we have! I sertainly can simply try too make my new sweet bride as happy as she wants too be! And as long as I breathe this is my only intention too do just simply that! So just what does a woman over fourty want?Go ahead and ask one, and then do your best just too please her as best you can, and don't forget too be yourself along the way! Life is ment too be enjoyed! So enjoy it as much as posible! Peace,love, and prosparity! It sertainly is all over the bible!Enjoy it while you can!   | |

Posted: 3/7/2006 11:13:21 AM | answer that question, men stop asking the question what do women want? and have the gutts and nerve to set her down and find out what she wants. not over a six pack of beer either, but looking her straight in the eyes and just ask her what do youm want out of life. is that so hard? trust me i been there ! there are some who don't have a clue in what that question intails, so do me a favor and run like hell !!
because you'll find yourself jumping off the cliff of the mundane and shallow empty minded trying to figure these few percentage of women out. in my travels of different and various countries woman are basicly the same , and this will raise some eye brows, to difficult to waste your time trying to figure them out, it would take a life time and well into the next millinium lol!!
here's a thought ! try communicating instead of jumping into the proverbial bed of selfi sexual satisfaction, ever talked after sex? of course not ! time to sleep! right !
when i used to go to night clubs, i would strike up a conversation after dancing with a woman out on the patio, man!! you would be surprise what she would tell you about herself with a few drinks, and dancing the night away, sometimes would last till 4 oclock in the morning, try it sometime guys!
if you have time to get between her legs how about getting into her mind as well, and see that there's more to her then just ........ , a great idea uh?
all jokes aside a woman is as complex as rubin's cube, when you think you have figured them out you have to start all over again, to search for a different solution.
that's my high, my challenge, not to figure a woman out , but listen to the clues she gives , that makes her happy and content, and trust me thier all divers in variety, and let them just be women less complicated and frustrating, to constant ask the question, what do women want !! thank you, have a great day and give her a kiss for me !! lol       | |

Posted: 3/7/2006 12:34:45 PM | First of all you can’t group all women over 40 together just as you can not group a bunch of over 40 guys together. We are individuals from very different walks of life in some cases. Lumping over anything in one category is stupid and just asking for trouble. What makes me happy may make another woman sad or angry. Some women may need financial security, other’s are independent and are not looking for that. Some want companionship, some a relationship, some want friends, read the profiles! Get a clue. Show some genuine interest.
Oh here I’ve got a novel idea how about someone taking the time to ask me, or here’s a better idea take a look at my profile, it lists lots of things that I like to do. If you don’t like it fine I realize we are individuals with different wants and needs. If you are what I don't want, “a couch potato who can’t hold conversation” then please don’t apply!

Posted: 3/7/2006 12:55:03 PM | | I want respect, affection, fun dates, committment, laughter, challenges, discussions, and romance from a man when in a relationship. Today a long nap, coffee, spaghetti, chocolate, a great pair of shoes and some nice jazz music would make me a happy woman!!!! | |

Posted: 3/7/2006 5:23:57 PM | Last night a male friend said that women are always "waiting for" something and not ready to______ . Most men I have found who make this statement fill in the blank with something along the lines of "have sex". Some fill in the blank with words like "commit", "love" and other higher things.
My quick answer was "It varies--some wait for friendship to grow. Others wait for something better to come along". But an honest question deserves an honest answer.
We wait for many things: To see if you can be trusted, how you handle your anger, if you have alley-cat ways and just want sex with anyone who will give it.
We wait to be gently wooed, persuaded, shown why you, above all others, are worthy to give our hearts, loyalty, body, future to.
We wait to see if you are willing and able to commit, nurture, nourish, protect, preserve, honor, keep just to us, understand...there are so many things we need to know.
Do you want someone for a moment, a night, a weekend, a month? Are you keeping score, competing with your buddies? Is it truly "ME" you want to spend your life with or merely a roll in the hay?
We want to know if you will always speak the truth or if you're "not good for anybody". Do we bring out the worst or the best in each other? Are we both free to think our own thoughts, feel our own feelings and speak our own minds without fear of violence or denial? Will we both be able to grow, even if one outgrows the other and moves on? If we both "follow our bliss" will those dreams conflict or merge?
Do you want an "intimate encounter", a lover, or a soulmate? What DO you want from ME? Are you here for a day, a season or a lifetime?
Can you sit and listen, ask questions to understand us better and answer mine so I can understand you better? Do you really WANT to understand and BE understood? Can I spill my dreams, hopes, desires, enthusiasm all over you without fear of embarrassment or ridicule? Will you be able to accept me without a need to change me into some fantasy of yours?
Yes, my friend, we wait for a great many things. And only the bravest and most blessed wait with us. | |
