Oh, so you mean you dont want to marry someine, who few years later will ruin your life, make you a wage slave and take away your kids, because sittng on a couch and eating potato chips all day while watching oprah simply doesnt make them happy anymore? Whats wrong with you? Whats your defect? Or perhaps youre gay?
Shaming doesn't work. If a man wants to stay single no amount of shaming from women will change it. Not every man needs female validation.

Well, if he is gay, he'll say no thanks, if he isn't, but not interested, he'll say no thanks, and if he is interested, he'll be flattered and respond positively.

What have you got to lose?

I've dated PLENTY of men who have passed 45 and are somewhat resigned to never finding the one. Some of them take that too far and don't want to put in much effort into a relationship that they don't think will work out. They chicken out..

But people who have passed the point of wanting a passionate children, or wanting children, or raising children, might have different priorities for dating.

At that age it might be more about companionship than passion or true love. So just because he missed the train, doesn't mean he won't want to get on the slow boat.

I really dislike it when people feel the need to meddle in other people's personal lives.

Even if you think it is for the greater good. I would not try to fix anyone up with anyone unless they asked me to.

He could be gay, sure. But he could also just be a mackPIMPplayerBACHELORhomie forreal, enjoying his simple life of freedom, which could certainly include banging chicks in secret like a bossPLAYER would do.

Here's how you can tell-- Play the song Living La Vida Loca by Ricky Martin and if he starts snapping his fingers or bobbing his head, then it is likely. If he breaks out in dance, then definitely. This test works everytime.

Men past 45 have passed the point of wanting passion or true love? That's news to me. Why would that be?
