Been there, done that. Nothing screams RUN! to a man louder than a high maintenance woman.
If you're very, very good looking you might be able to pull it off, but only for a while. Sooner or later any man whose testicles have descended gets tired of it.
EDIT 1: I will say one thing. This issue is probably the major issue that scares men away from never married women.
EDIT 2: On further reflection, I think I now have the diagnosis: Overly picky, high maintenance. You mentioned you were insecure when you were younger, that tends to go hand-in-hand with the previous sentence.
I definitely was very picky based on looks when I was younger and I don't deny it. I wish I had given lesser attractive men a chance then more often but can't go back in time.
The difference is that women don't usually seek out younger men. In fact, most women turn down men who are around 10+ years younger, and the men have to convince them they're serious, it's not because they want sex, etc. So the issues of the older woman being a creep, a cougar, wanting arm candy, etc. generally don't apply.
I get approached often by younger men and I generally turn them down. The main reason is most of them I have met were blunt in just wanting sex. Others claimed they wanted relationships but would wonder. They approach me not because I am older but because they think I am their age.
Are all these geezers who chase after young women online taking viagra, or chugging testosterone supplements, or something? How do they expect to keep up with those energetic, young women?
What causes old age? What causes erectile dysfunction or lack of testosterone. Again, its an insult to me that younger guys give better orgasms than older guys. Doesnt things like lots of sex in the past, drinking, and smoking contribute to things like ED. Trust me when I say this also. Guys who are uncut control their orgasms. You're implying the younger guys last longer or make better love? Why because they're cool and hip and can dance and laugh and joke around?

Women like you are why I will lie about my age.
It's not about ED, it's about frequency, and how many times he can bounce back for more in one session. Testosterone declines naturally. All guys slow down sooner or later. They don't have to lose it completely though, as you noted; regular exercise makes a difference, as well as maintaining healthy habits, as you also noted.
I didn't know you were equating drinking with "going out".
Well if you don't equate those two, then there are even more low-cost and free things to do when going out and even less of a reason for lack of funds to keep 20-somethings from going out. I only brought it up because you made that claim (or whoever I was responding to did, sorry if it wasn't you), and was just saying that I'm not used to that being a deterrent, even if they want to drink (which is the main expense I could think of that could potentially be cost-prohibitive for some people in some places to socialize.)

Yes, and no. Dining out costs. Concerts cost. Lectures sometimes cost, sometimes not. Movies cost, though not too much. But it adds up if you want to go out a lot. Museums and art exhibits are free or cheap. People with good jobs can afford a greater variety of evening activities, and greater frequency, and that tends more to be people past their mid-to-late 20's in a weak economy. People on a tight budget can still go out, but are more limited in their options.

Right...That's why I said people in their 30's tend to do things like go out to dinner, while people in their 20's tend to do things like hit the bars late at night. (Again generally speaking.) I often spend more on one dinner in my late 30's than I did on a month of going out drinking cheap beer in college. I agree that older people have more money. I also agree that people in their 20's go out more often, in general. I think that's quite easily observable, so I'm not sure what (if anything?) we're arguing about.

I was saying people in their 30's tend to go out more, because they can better afford to. Some 20-somethings don't have the money. "Going out" to them may mean hanging out at their friends' house, or having friends over for dinner. People don't suddenly lose interest in or energy for "going out" once they pass their 20's, contrary to what someone posted earlier, in my observation.

Keep saying it long enough and maybe it will become true.
