Posted: 2/13/2009 10:03:56 AM | I am 24.
I get emails from men over 40!!!
What do they seriously think?
That I would want to date someone that could easily be my father?
I know a lot of people claim that love has no agenumber and I agree but there are limits! | |

Posted: 2/13/2009 10:12:23 AM | Let me answer these questions one at a time
What do they seriously think?
You would look great on there arm or in their bed
That I would want to date someone that could easily be my father?
For the money like most girls your age do
I know a lot of people claim that love has no age number and I agree but there are limits!
If you have limits then set them on your mail settings and solve that problem.
As Far as your pictures go use the ist 2 on the right had side , They show your serious and your silly side . Save the rest for those "other sites"
Problem solved | |

Posted: 2/13/2009 10:12:56 AM | | Yes. They truly are delusional enough to think you will date them. Don't feel bad, when you are my age (41) the guys your own age will STILL be chasing after the girls your age, (24) and you'll be getting emails from the 65 year olds. | |

What do you think?
You're hot, young and sexy...if I throw enough money at you maybe you'll date me (that's how some men think).
You're hot and young, why wouldn't you want an older man to show you the ropes?
Oh and lastly baby...3 words for you: Anna Nicole Smith. Not the druggie part but the whole great granddaddy with assloads of money part. | |

Posted: 2/13/2009 10:20:23 AM | Well...you can't blame them for trying 
Use your age restrictions. OR make it very clear in your "About Me " section. | |
|

Posted: 2/13/2009 10:22:09 AM | If you don't want men outside a certain age group to message you, simply go into your mail settings and change your restrictions to limit who can contact you to include only the ages you want.
As for men messaging younger women, yeah - that'll never stop. LOL | |

I'm not a psychic, but I can make an educated guess.
1. From some of your more provocative pics., they think you are like many other women and using a dating site as a means to prostitute yourself.
2. That you appear to be a fairly sophisticated woman who might enjoy the company of a more polished guy.
That I would want to date someone that could easily be my father
Younger women dating older men is not as unusual as you seem to think. Some young women think men their own age are very immature. | |

So, set your email filters/settings to the age group you only want to date. There, problem solved. | |

Posted: 2/13/2009 10:38:04 AM | Hilarious! I checked the OP's mail settings and the high limit is set at 38. 
Just something about the number "4", eh OP?

David, the number 4 is the black hole of dating for women. Men 40 and above routinely block women with that dreaded 4 from emailing them, setting their top limit at 35 or below. If it's only girls in their 20's blocking guys in their 40's, at least it's not women your own age who think they are too good for you. | |

Posted: 2/13/2009 10:47:07 AM | Ooh ohh I got this one. Speaking as a 37 year old I'd say your freakin' pictures are part of it. Nice pictures but they have a retro flapper kind of appearance. Do you even KNOW what a flapper is? So by your statment your mailbox is being filled up by 40+ year old guys and those that are in your "acceptable" list get spammed.
Is is me or are SOME women in PoF jaded or stuck up just because men send out first contacts to women all the time and not visa versa?
Why not spend some time asking what is RIGHT with guys. You may come across a LOT more attractive with that attitude! | |

I know a lot of people claim that love has no agenumber and I agree but there are limits!
This means you DISAGREE with that claim.
That's your preogative.
If men are subverting your age restrictions with false profiles, you could involve the site administrators but it would be much easier to purge/block. | |

I get emails from men over 40!!!
And? I'm 45 and I contacted a woman who is 27 and she wants to meet me. I'm going out tonight with someone who is 29. So what?
What do they seriously think?
In general, I think the women I've contacted in that age bracket are like the ones I've contacted who were 10 years older: attractive, articulate and potentially interesting. On the other hand, I met someone in person last week who is 35 and she ended up being a flake, so getting older is no hedge against flakiness.
That I would want to date someone that could easily be my father?
Regardless of what my date tonight involves, one thing it will not involve is her calling me ``daddy.'' She may say ``Oh! God!'' a few time, but I'm not religious, so that will be ok.
I know a lot of people claim that love has no agenumber and I agree but there are limits!
Personally. I think 20 and perhaps even 25 would be too young, but I wouldn't rule it out, a priori. | |

Geeee OP...Have you looked in the mirror recently?
I think they're thinking. "Worth a shot" | |

am 44, tell me why I get e-mails from men that are 24?
Being a guy, I would have to say boinking you figures in somewhere. | |
|
| What is wrong with men?
Posted: 2/13/2009 10:54:27 AM | because you show off your boobies.
also since your mail restrictions limit replies to men under 38, I don't see how that happens | |
|
| What is wrong with men?
Posted: 2/13/2009 10:56:06 AM | | It's because when they look in the mirror, they don't see what you see. They delude themselves into believing they're the young stud they were 20 years ago. | |

Posted: 2/13/2009 10:58:42 AM | Umm..over reacting much.
Some women your age would and do date men that age....it is not that far fetched.
If you don't want them to contact you...you have the option of making it so men over a certain age can't.
I think it is silly though to assume that it is some law of nature that 24 yr olds don't date 40 year olds just because you don't or would not.  | |

Posted: 2/13/2009 11:00:33 AM | You are new to this, and need to relax some, take a step back and just enjoy the ride, my dear young woman......
What many on here, both men and women, will create is a "wish list" in their mind for what they think they would like, and then let the computer take them there, since reality is one of the last things you get on here......
None of us really think that we look as old as our birth certificate, or that we are out of shape, fat, short, flat chested, bald, on and on...... What we do is project what we wished everyone thought about us, since that is how we feel about ourselves, right or wrong.
Now, let's talk reality for a minute..........Do you not see younger women with older men? Do you not see older women with younger men?? Do you not see some of your friends think not bad or even more when they see a good looking middle aged man walk into a room with confidence, experience, and money written all over him?
I have had those more than 20 years younger contact me about being interested, and I have had a few more than 2o years older do the same. Nothing right or wrong about it, as long as everyone is legal, both agree to it, and enjoy one another.
Remember that the visual is the first part to any of this dating and connecting thing, and looking at your pictures, I would guess you older than 24, and I bet you can find many of those men that you look at, that will look much younger than their age, and you might just put them in your age category thinking that they are maybe 37 or 38.......
If I can sit at a bar and be approached by someone that wants to know me, and they are in your age bracket of being under 30, and they think I am in their age category as well, what usually happens.........All is good until the both of you find out how old each is, and then you either move on or accept it because you enjoy who you are with now..... 
Just my opinion.......   | |
