Posted: 11/16/2004 8:22:04 PM | What happen to the age old addage that a woman matures faster than a man ?
Here I sit and all these ladies complaining about how hard it is to find a person who don't play games. Who can respect them,who dosn't have baggage,etc.,etc.,etc. And yet put limitations on age.Its fustrating to read profile after profile and when you get to the bottom.Damn I missed it by one year or after writing 200 words sending them off only to find out that one dosn't meet their criteria...
For to enjoy a fine wine, it must be aged and opened to the air to bring out the full flavor.
Everything in life gets better and more valuble with time.I mean would you rather have sex with a 21 year old who can probably count the number of times he's had sex on his toes and fingers or with a man with thirty years of experiance.Do you want to teach or be taught

YNA, yeah, everyone has baggage if they've lived at all. It's a matter of learning from one's experiences and then moving on.
LIDREC, are you looking for younger women? lol I know how you feel being cut off from messaging people due to age. sigh The "experience" thing is a two-edged sword. "...would you rather have sex with a 21 year old ... or with a man with thirty years of experiance." That depends on the individual woman - some of us are not looking for professional-grade sex any more than men are. Some of us women are looking for someone we like, trust, laugh and cry with, relax with, enjoy being around -- sex is not the main issue. If you boast of your "experience", it could turn off some young ladies, IMO. I've had the opposite problem at times where younger men claimed to admire "experienced women". Hello? Like I'm a courtesan or what??
This is my first poston POF so be kind. I figure I qualify to double-post in here since I'm "Over 30" twice.

The forum(s) look user-friendly here. They don't seem to be tightly moderated, but maybe that's a Good Thing™.
I would like an on-going discussion of Age but don't know if anyone is interested. Like someone said in another thread, age is "more than just a number", but it is not totally limiting, and dealing with our preconceptions and stereotypes helps everyone.

Don't forget..Not getting what you want may be a wonderful stroke of luck. Live your life honourably so that when you look back you can enjoy your life for a second time. | |

Posted: 11/18/2004 4:34:03 PM | Otis - if you don't find what you want here - wait - what did you want?? Oh, talk/email. That's what I came for, too, and I found it right away. I have several new chat friends. Also, we have the option of adding something to the site - for instance, humor, or a cooking thread, or a weather-where-you-are thing, or plants and gardening, or a computing thread, or... Anyway, we're talking to you so that's worth something, no? And the price is right.

Some of whom may be going through or have been through what you are experiencing. I still think knowing that you are not alone meens something. And communicating is normally better than not....
BEST WISHES.. | |

Posted: 11/19/2004 12:10:40 AM | | its been my observation that woman due mature faster than men in most cases. Woman do this thing around 25 where they start selectively singling out those not worthy to marriage, and therefore they are setting up the having a baby thing, and that means getting their shiest together for the sake of children...Men on the other hand, I have noticed don't really start thinking about homes, marriage and children untill their early 30's. Now there is nothing scientific about this..but just an observation...and darn it..I am allways right. | |

Posted: 11/19/2004 1:31:51 AM | | I have noticed that in your profile you have limited your preference age in women to 40. Darn, that means in less than 2 nomths I will be unable to contact you even.....hate to make you eat your words but, hey, what is wrong with women over 40? Especially when I see that you yourself are 44? Hmmmm? | |

Posted: 11/19/2004 10:50:58 AM | To everyone who has replied I thankyou,
When I spoke of 30yrs experiance it was not a boast but a fact of life,Lord knows how I would like to be 21 again. By the time I reached 21 I had been around the world 3 times and had a full dance card from all over Russia.Japan ,Phillipines,SE Asia etc.
The point I wanted to make was why do we make such limitations when it is the animal instinct that truly drives us not the media. In every herd there is a bull,in every pack there is a leader the survival of the fittest is paramount. Even in our ancestory it was always the strongest not the beautiful or young that won the chance to mate.
So basically I beleive that the media has created a false ideal within the minds of men and women in general .

Posted: 11/21/2004 7:50:38 AM | When I was in my 20ies and well into my 30ies, all I really cared about was my orgasm ... selfish but true. If she had one, so much the better. But as I have aged I now care more about the woman. Hell, I know I am going to have one and I like to make sure she has at least one.
I think as we get older we do, in fact, get better. The most exciting woman I have ever been with was 54 and would put most 30 year old women to shame.
So yeah, I think age (if we have managed to learn anything along the way) is a bonus. Too bad so many people (men and women) tend to use age as a block to getting together rather than an enhancement. | |

Posted: 11/21/2004 7:21:01 PM | Yes I can see how limitations will affect one's way of thinking and I can only speak for myself. Age is only a number it is what the person has inside and out that would interest me more and age can be a minority, the best thing to do is to try any ways if you find that person interesting. What the worse they can do is to say "No!" but at least you tried. Looking for a companion is kind of like looking for work, I can recieve 50 no's before I get a yes and each No I encounter will only make me stronger inside. Now age can be limited too for various reasonings. To each their own because we have choice today. Heck if I was interested in some body, I would approach them any ways because we never know what the end results would be.
bye bye for now...DO NOT GIVE UP!!!!!! | |

You are right why did I put limits only to limit the number of responses. If you take the time to look,you will see that has been changed hence forth .I am glad that you have some curiosity. And thankyou for your scathing replies, I like you.......

Posted: 11/30/2004 11:32:48 PM | no1here, I think you summed it up the best when you said: "You get what you need, not what you want". If we all got what we wanted we'd not be on here, not have gone down many of life's different avenues to learn valuable 'life lessons' all at different times/places in our lives. Cliche sounding, yet true.
Teach or be taught - the ideal answer should be 'both' dont you think? How else are we gonna know what we 'need' and then 'want'? | |

Posted: 12/11/2004 10:17:38 PM | Yikes!!! and then there is the other fine print, must live within 75 miles must not be looking for this, must not be looking for that, sheesh if you restrict the field the odds arent so good you will meet up with the one you need. 
I would walk to Kalamazoo for a real love, no doubt in my mind and age is a number not a command, some people dont mature mentally as fast as others and others much faster, I still play with blocks, but my heart is in the right place :)

Posted: 12/12/2004 6:54:39 AM | I don't think I have much in the way of restirctions on my profile & for me, they are much more of a guideline than a hard & fast rule.
LOL at the baggae comment! I would much prefer someone with some baggae who's therefore actually experienced life some :)
As for the last comment, I would hope for a little of both .. I think both sex and relationships are best when you learn from each other & doscover together ...
oh and I liked your profile Lidrec! ;) | |
