| | I'm Not Attracted To Men My Age.... *Page 1 of 30 (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30) | I'm 50 and it's hard finding men my age who I find attractive. When I do a search on here most of the men just look overweight or don't seem to have any sense of style. It just seems like when alot of men get to my age they could care less what they come off as.
After a man hits 35 they seem to just give up on everything....gain weight, have hair growing odd places, develop jowls...just let themselves go completely. Now I am not saying there aren't decent looking men my age somewhere in the world, but for the most part any man over 35 is pretty well past it.
*thought it was time for the women to have a say...* | |

However, that is always not the case. Maybe it is just that the ones you are attracted to are younger looking because you take care of yourself and tend to think young. At least that is what I'm beginning to think.
That and anyone I seem to gravitate towards is always minimum a day trip away or just to darn far away.

Posted: 5/7/2006 8:36:20 PM | | and isn't it funny that most men in our age group aren't attracted to women in their age group either. It's like some weird catch22. LOL | |

Posted: 5/7/2006 8:37:35 PM | | Actually, it is said over and over and over again about women over 35...ad nauseum. That is why I started the thread.....figured it was time women got to call it like it is, too | |

Posted: 5/7/2006 8:40:24 PM | | i'm 37 and i take issue with what you said about guys over thirty five. i don't look like i'm 22 anymore, but i try to keep in shape, enjoy life, and be a positive guy and all, etc. i think that maybe you're being a bit too judgemental. life is more than looks and income...it's what kind of person you are on the inside that counts. people go down hill with age, that' just a fact, no matter how much you would want to think otherwise...see that picture of me with the fish? that's what life is all about...not shallow things such as looks. that being said, i don't think i'm a bad looking guy for 37...and if you notice, i have a small paunch in the middle and stilll have a smile on my face...i do pushups everyday and +can work for 16 hours a day in the hot sun...non stop till i drop from exhaustion. my dad at 60 can go longer. so all that crap about style and looks and whatever don't mean shit about being a real man... | |

Posted: 5/7/2006 8:57:18 PM | | ohhh who the fox...this will be interesting. Your right though, I also have seen many posts about women over 35..not always in the most flattering light. Fair is fair...though. This should be entertaining to watch..lol. | |

Posted: 5/7/2006 9:03:16 PM | i think that op thinks that because she works out a million hours a week that somehow that makes her more attractive to the men out there...it's pretty easy to do excercises in air conditioning op. but could you handle handle being shot at or spit on or digging ditches in 120 degree weather, or cleaning fish on a trawler while freezing water splashes over the side of the boat, or perhaps hunting 200 pound wild hogs with nothing but a knife in one hand? or maybe being a pow in 'nam, you know the guys who were starved, beaten, killed? the ones that are just about in your age group? you don't shit about real men, not a damn thing...that's the truh... | |

Posted: 5/7/2006 9:04:11 PM | who_the_fox Great thread!! I've asked that myself. But my personal experience has been mostly that the guys my age, my mother, if she WERE dating, wouldn't. And it's so NOT the age thing It's the attraction factor and the interest factor. I'm not the (oh GOD I hate cliches but can't think of anything more appropriate) guys my age ARE the proverbial couch potatoes. Get off work, come home, eat and veg out and watch tv....cuddling and movies. AKK!! I do that, but I do that when I want to stay home with my kids. Not my idea of a date!! Sorry, but if your idea of what you want to do with your life is go to work, come home make dinner and watch TV...doesn't work for me. I DO watch some TV, very limited and I watch movies which I pick out, if I'm bored in the first 15 minutes....then nix on that. I live in Florida, the weather is so postcard perfect. I like to DO things, not watch or read about other people doing things. Unless it's football that's a whole different thing.  | |

Posted: 5/7/2006 9:12:41 PM | To the credit of the men out there, many have had hard lives and have faced the elements in their jobs. I can't fault most men who've worked hard all of their lives to provide for their families and look worn around the edges a bit as a result. However, there are many who look badly because they drink heavily, don't live healthy lifestyles, or never did. Age eventually creeps in and for some, that worn look comes sooner than later.
It's a known fact that men don't feel as compelled to "look young" as women do. Women are expected to live up to a certain "beauty" and men generally aren't. Some say a vintage male is like an aged wine, better with his years.
I think men appear older than their female counterparts at the same age because they don't use moisturizers on their faces, don't get their teeth bleached like they could, don't pursue the latest trends in hairstyles, don't worry and fuss over fashionable or up-to-date clothing. That removes from the appeal of their image to the rest of the females. They often could stand to learn much from the women who are doing their utmost to keep up with the youthful look for their years.
I can think of several men I find extremely attractive who are older, but most of them are on TV or film. Take Bill Kurtis from A&E...I think the man is hella attractive. I'd jump all over that in a heartbeat...he just has a "way" that is very hot to me. Jean Luc Piccard from Star Trek...damn, that is some fine vintage man there! So sexy. BUT they take good care of themselves...they wear nice clothing, speak in an assertive way, and have wisdom in their eyes.
Maybe Saturday nights with beer and nuts wasn't such a good idea after all? | |

Posted: 5/7/2006 9:16:37 PM | | ^^^blastkist, you are definitely very perceptive about men... thank you for your enlightening opinions...but what's up with the "beer and nuts" question? | |
|
| I'm Not Attracted To Men My Age....
Posted: 5/7/2006 9:19:59 PM | glockster That's called a summation or a summary. Blastkist is a dear friend and very perceptive, but if you don't understand that, you may have missed her point of the post. It was an excellent summation!!
Nice try...but you're really way off here. Think about it insincere flattery and then what? You said you don't get it, so why are you flattering her for something you don't understand. Trust me, she is, and most of us are a little bit more perceptive ( to use YOUR word) than that.
Spin the wheel and try again, good luck. | |

Posted: 5/7/2006 9:23:40 PM | blast here here my sediments exactly. Oh and nice to see you back.
Not all men that look good are in the movies or on TV. I get people mistaking my age all the time, most peg me for 5 years younger and I working on keeping it that way. Not to say I look like Brad Pitt or George Clooney.
Some people take care of themselves but the majority don't that is why there is so much emphasis on obesity these days.
JMHO | |

Posted: 5/7/2006 9:26:37 PM | | ok, i digress. i understand her point (summary, conclusion, summation, whatever) about beer and nuts...but the whole thing about men over 35 just struck me as being really shallow and stupid. i can work circles around youngsters half my age. and btw, who really cares if op works out 30 hours a week? does it make her any better of a person? does it make her somehow better than the rest of us? tougher? better looking? she put it on there to make a point about how men post on here about women over 35 all the time? made absolutely no point with me whatsoever...seems kind of childish to me...but, hey, that's just MY 2 cents... | |

Posted: 5/7/2006 9:26:49 PM | Its good i saw a clarification that didnt include all men...Im 40 and probably in better shape now than when i was 30....and seriously plan on staying in this condition until im 80...No I dont work out at a gym anymore..dont need to...some of us should if we can..or go for walks..this applies to both men and women who are aging
Gentlemen....dont get annoyed here, take it as a wakeup call...a lot of men consistently want younger women as they grow older BUT they fail to recognize the fact that most younger woman dont really want to cuddle a beer gut. Its to our benefit to keep ourselves in shape and looking good as we grow older | |

Posted: 5/7/2006 9:28:09 PM | | c'mon people age has nothing to do with it. I have dated women from 22 years younger to 13 years older than I. I even picked up a date at a nursing home once and we had a great time. She is in her mid 50's looks and acts 30ish but has a terminal illness and needs to have medical attn. available at all times. The thing I find is the older we get the more baggage WE carry. How you live your life shows your age to much smoking, drinking, even tanning ages one quicker. I'm surprised how many 20 something women have expressed interest in me and old ladies 60+ adore me. I'm just not buying all this age discrimmination crap it's just that some of us think we should have the best and the truth is most people would not know the best if they did have them. | |

Posted: 5/7/2006 9:30:59 PM | | I too am almost 50 but I find men my age very sexy. Sure there are a lot of men who have let themselves go, same can be said for many women our age. There are still a lot of very attractive fit men in their late 40s and 50s out there. Keep looking, you will find them. | |
