I'd rather be 35 with money than 25 with looks.

Btw, my grandmother, my mom, and many other women in my family were VERY beautiful (my mom was a model) so I'm speaking from what I have seen down to my grandmother hating my mom (yes, her own daughter) because as she got older she took the "you're so pretty" spotlight.

A child's cuteness lasts only a few years. Its even more fleeting than sexual attraction, yet, I see a lot of fuss over this with baby pictures and the rest of it . Does it have any effect in the later years? Does it contribute to a lasting bond? Not so much if they are rotating in and out of foster care I think.

So the question is, is it an unavoidable curse or something to do with managing the state of one's life?

That's a tricky age. If you are thinking of something long-term, you wanna catch her before she's been super slutty. Once they start approaching 30 and start thinking of marriage a lot, it's probably too late. You will inherit what countless others have used as a semen repository. If you can live with that, fine. But at 25 she's probably about to start taking things a little more serious. She will selectively start to forget the party years.

That's why being educated, pretty, and rich is really the best way to go. The trifecta, in that exact order.

Okay, fair enough.

I guess I don't really worry about not having my "best looks" anymore and I don't see it as a limitation at all. Until threads like these pop up, I really don't even give it any thought.

I live in reality. I hook up with REAL women. No, 25 isn't past a woman's "prime". But a classic car only has high value when it's rare and in mint condition.

Guys that view "approaching 30 y.o." women as probable "semen repositories" and that you "wanna catch her before she's super slutty." Even after 100 pages, this thread is hitting an all-time low!

Me thinks you are hooking up with REAL (nasty) Women. "Hook up" being the operative word.
