ACtually that could be. I never really thought of it like that. I've always wondered if you put Hugh Heff in a job working as a greeter at WalMart, he def wouldn't have the appeal he has,lol...but then his confidence and drive is what got him where his is, which could be a part of what is appealing? (not to mention the money,lol)...interesting! Things that make you go hmmmm

Yeah, well I think the simple answer is, "No. No way, Nuh-uh, I'll pass thanks." It's just a way of getting around the truth. Of course they're there for the $$.

LOL actually this topic would make a great reality show. Put some ugly old guy that has a gazillion dollars on trying to find a wife, kinda like The Bachelor, then they find out he is b.r.o.k.e.! That would be fun to watch!

It is interesting to find that a lot of other people only do it with people they find particularly attractive. It can be really strange for someone like my friend Sandy, who was always beautiful. She still is but she is over 40, does not dress like a cougar, and feels invisible except to the geriatric set. No offense to the old guys, but they are just doing the same thing the 40 yr old guys are doing by only looking at 22 yr olds.

"Sandy" needs to quit focusing on men her own age and start paying attention to the 20-somethings. There are a lot of sad , clueless , lonely young men out there who need some time and attention (and perhaps some discipline). Many of them are completely open to "older women" . Could be a "win-win".

Yeah, that's a scene that's probably played out thousands of times since Wall Street tanked.

Hey, some of us 40-somethings need some good old-fashioned, rough, hurt so good discipline too, ya know? Don't want to be guilty of reverse/reverse age discrimination now do we?

I don't pay much attention to the older guys (I'm married to one - so we won't go there). I might flirt with the ones who are my age. The younger ones, I just think they're cute - like my kids.
dear friend you might point out in your post that you in fact a raving beauty and few in that age group have your looks or smarts or self discipline.
