Posted: 9/11/2008 5:52:06 AM | Go to Sydney! lol Population in Dominion is around 2500. If 50% are male, that leaves 1250 women. If 50% are married, that's now down to 625. Now, you have older women (my grandmother is single, she's 93, lol), and children that will account for a couple of hundred or so. The actual number of single women over 30 in Dominion is quite small...
Ask the girls at Tim Horton's if they know any available single women. Being a small town, everyone knows everyone so they'll most likely know the skinny :) If you're charming about it, they'll happen to mention you to single women they know. If you're not charming, you're out of luck. Besides, unless the town has changed a lot since I spent my summers there, they already know you're the "new guy". You just need to let them know you're available.
There's no "right" way to approach a woman. Say hello and introduce yourself (if they don't have a wedding ring on). Tell them you're new to town and ask them where you might meet PEOPLE your age. Good luck! | |

Posted: 9/11/2008 1:41:20 PM | Plenty of fish is your best bet to meet women over 30 . Please do state your TRUE DESIRE and the SENSIBLE WANT to meet women over 30 in your profile caption!
"Only want to meet women over 30!"
You have no age restriction in your profile, which can easily be misunderstood by women. The women might think you are also interested in women as young as 18 years of age. Naturally , some women over 30 would think you want a YOUNG WOMAN, therefore they ignore you here on POF, then you will have to resort to "local" meetings in a small place such as Dominion to meet women from 30 and up.
As a matter of fact , I think most men in their 30s, 40s and 50s , they all WANT and DESIRE women in their 30s for very good reasons. Most of those men are competing for those women in their 30s who are established, career oriented, self -sufficient, independent, faminine and beautiful.

I wouldn't say most men....
Men I know including myself, want someone closer to their own age -- they have more in common with them.

Posted: 9/11/2008 3:37:00 PM | I have to agree with Mac. Saying most men, especially the person not being a man and thus I don't know how she can say that, but the generalizations continue, is not correct. Like Mac, most of my male friends are also looking for someone within a limited age range.
I also didn't realize that by not having an age restriction could be so easily misunderstood by women. If a woman over 30 assumes a man with no age restrictions is only interested in a YOUNG WOMAN then she has her own issues to deal with.
Heck, I had a 26 year old email me on Monday to tell me her friend is coming up from the Valley and they were looking for a good time. I replied by telling her that I'm sure they will enjoy themselves and to be careful, but I'm looking for a relationship and I have daughters around her age. We're not all a bunch of dirty old men!!  | |

Posted: 9/11/2008 4:08:48 PM | Hmmm, very sad indeed. If most men only want women in their 30s I guess I should give up now....well perhaps, there's a nice man on POF about ready to retire and collect his old age pension that still wants a 40-year-old....
^^^^And Maple, you shouldn't have dismissed that 20-something so easily...could have been a lot of fun....woot!!!!  | |

Posted: 9/11/2008 4:40:10 PM | Hahahaha....madi. That is soooo not me!!! I'm all for a lot of fun, but not with people my daughters age. Granted, my daughters friends do think I'm cool, but only because I'm not some old curmudgeon parent! 
Besides, it just shows that there are 40 + men out there that are more interested in 40 yr olds than 20/30 yr olds. Thus, you don't have to give up now. | |

I am glad to hear some men are very sensible on this forum! 
I have often been emailed by men who are MUCH MUCH older than me previously until I set the top limit on age in my profile, then these sweet old fellows favorited me . I had as old as 77 year old favorited me on my last profile.
Not too long ago, a 67 year old man from US offered me plentiful. He is a retired engineer of some sort and would move to join me in this stick of the woods and etc...etc....
He is just too OLD for me but he did not think so. He felt very insulted when I told him I prefer a man in his late 40s or early 50s, so I can grow old with him.
PS:
The age limit for women who could email him was 30 to 60. What else can I say?

Posted: 9/11/2008 6:27:49 PM | I think women have an easier time than men because it seems like men have to do all the approaching .It takes a lot of nerve to introduce yourself to a strange woman and hope she likes you.Hard on the head when it doesnt work out.there is a sense of freedom knowing that you can try as many as you want when you are single | |

Posted: 9/12/2008 6:25:30 AM | Maple ,
Since you are so enthralled about my stories, here are more true stories especially on the women in their 30s, they are sought for by those breeds of men.
1) Older man and much younger woman.
He was married for over 25 years to a woman around his own age. At age 50, he left his wife for a woman 20 years younger than him. He said it was a powerful feeling he had, although he left his wife and 3 children for a much younger woman. The 30 year old simply adored him for his maturity, success, half decent look and his intact vitality. 8 years later, he was 58 and she was 38. She left the 58 year old for a 32 year old man and they are still happily together to this day.
Now 10 years later , he is still alone, and he confessed that in the past 10 years he was looking for a woman 10 to 20 years younger than himself and not realizing that he was not 50 anymore and has lost most of his shines. He said he grew up and admitting to himself the hard cold fact of aging, now he is seeking a woman in her 60s.
2) Older woman and younger man
She was a beautiful and successful 36 year old, he was a tall, dark and handsome 20 year old. He followed her like a little puppy. He stated older women are more mature and don't play games. They were together for about 9 years. She kicked him out 2 kids later. The young man were supported by her all those years. He is 30, and out there hunting for a woman in her 30s again.
She is 46 and seeking a man in his 40s. She told me it was a lesson she learned that a young man is only good for one thing.

Posted: 9/12/2008 8:39:51 AM | lol... I dont have an exact age that I am looking for but I do state that I'm not looking for a 20 year old or a 40 year old.
I get blasted on a regular basis for this. If she is 39 3/4 she states that proudly... she is not 40 therefore I should date her.
If she is 40 to 45 she makes an argument as to why she should be exempt from this
45 + I either get attacked right off the bat or told that I dont know what I'm missing
And of course when I stick to my stated preferences I usually get insulted for it ;)
I've also been attacked/insulted for my stated preference of not wanting kids ;) I guess I should change who I am on the spot for these anonymous internet strangers who know me better then I know myself ;)
You cant let this stuff get to you. Its the weird internet and everything happens, either laugh or become jaded and bitter ;) | |

Posted: 9/12/2008 9:21:36 AM | Elmo re: can't let this stuff get to you...I agree 100%...it's "www. world"...take it with a grain of salt and not personally...all in fun/free entertainment...
you laugh with the cool ppl...and you laugh at the nutcases
some will try to tell you, who YOU are, only because they don't have an identiy on themselves..be true to you, and all is good! | |

Posted: 9/12/2008 12:57:32 PM | | Idont really have an age preference i just think i would be best suited to someone close to me age or a bit older.I guess when you are single suddenly you hit the ground running and only after some experiences do you settle down and really know what you need.Idont think i could count out any age group because it depends on the person.Iguess im still like a kid in a candy store right now .i can say that anyone i have talked to has been very nice Even if not interested the considerate people will let you know politely.But overall this is a good experience constantly trying to keep it fresh .Almost a game of cat and mouse.I guess nothing ventured nothing gained. | |

Posted: 9/12/2008 1:07:26 PM | As much as I wouldn't date someone who was wayyyy younger than I am.
I am not going to place an age limit on my profile.
I feel that it would limit myself from maybe talking to or meeting someone absolutely worth getting to know. :) But not necessarily date.

Posted: 9/13/2008 8:41:03 AM | I agree Darlena. I used to have an age limit of my age or younger as I'm not really interested in older women, but then thought that wasn't nice as there are a lot of nice people out there. And who knows, maybe someone just a couple of years older may be the one. No sense in living in a tunnel.
I dislike seeing age limits but I can totally understand why some people would use them. Especially the women. | |
|
| meeting women over 30
Posted: 9/13/2008 9:40:15 AM | yes Maple, good idea to keep it open to an extent
as I mentioned on another thread, most females around my age, want a man, not a" boy in trainning" ...altho, to look 20/30 yrs down the road...wouldn't want to be pushing a wheelchair with a breathing pump either | |

Posted: 9/13/2008 4:22:02 PM | | I dont want to set age limits either for meeting people .i think you have to live for the moment sometimes and not worry about the future otherwise i think you will be denying yourself the chance to enjoy some really cool people .If you get to specific it will probably take a lifetime to find what you want.it isnt the destination but the journey . | |

Posted: 9/15/2008 6:50:38 AM | evan,
What is your purpose of this thread? How and where to meet women over 30? Isn't that in your conscious or subconscious mind that you set an age limit to meet women over 30?
Maybe, in your mind you are thinking if you were to be seriously seeking a potential future partner, she will have to be in her 30s. BUT, if you were just PLAYING the field and this candy store is just too good to leave anytime soon , you don' t really want to MISS anything, therefore you don' t want to set age limit in the "playing" . You have conveniently using "isnt the destination but the journey ", as far as, I can see.

Now that I just turned 50, I'd like to invite all of the young women who messaged me when I was in my 40's to re-apply.
