Don't fret single 40 yr old women. The man will still choose you (marriage, older)

I'm only pointing out societies double standard as it applies to older men vs older women. Its there, its real and unfair, and it isnt changing much.

I'm just talking about myself and my friends. I don't think wrinkles are attractive, so Clooney is out and Brad Pitt hasn't looked too good in about 4-5 years. Why would I want to be with someone who will be mistaken for my father when we're out?

OP, don't you think you can do better than a 45-year-old guy who apparently makes bad choices? You're 28, you have a career. Go out there and snag somebody you can really get along with.

Deleted. So not worth it.

The term "sugarbaby" is entirely foreign to you, isn't it? There's a whole website devoted to it.

Actually, there area advantages in choosing a 40 year-old with 4 kids, over the 28 with no kids.

1. You don't have to wonder what the kids are going to be like, they're already there.

2. You don't have to wonder how many kids there will be, They're already there, and she may not have anymore.

3. When the kids get in trouble in school, you can always say; "Not my responsibility. I didn't bring them into this world."

4. I'm told... (never tried it) When it comes to sex, "They don't scream, they don't yell, they're grateful as Hell..."

5. They're generally past the stage of burning water when they're trying to bring it to a boil, so dinner generally isn't too bad.

I'm guessing this happened to you as a 28 year old? Well, in some cases, it is true. Besides 4 kids lol, what has she got that you haven't got? Are you in shape? As an older woman, that is my ace in the hole. Younger women are just so much fatter these days. Sorry if that's not politically correct. I love to eat too but I try to keep it in moderation.
And it's happened to all of us, old young thin fat etc. Kids or no kids, responsible or irresponsible. Are you too needy / clingy?
But facts aside (who has what etc.) People like who they like, age is a number, how many children you have is a number, weight is a number. What do you need to do to improve yourself?
Glad to hear I'll be ok for a few years attracting men OP, thanks for that. lol.
You win some you lose some. See how you can be the best you and be her.

How old is this guy?

[udolipixie]

Egh most old guys I know aren't in the position to be choosing a gal in her 20s even late 20s. If any gender thinks they are vintage wine that everyone wants a taste of it's way more likely guys than gals as guys seem to always be on about how desirable they are, how they get better with age, etc . Always amusing when some 25+ guy thinks I'd actually be interested in him over a guy my age..yeah because if you find the gals your age paling in comparison to gals my age why would I find guys your age better than guys my age..

George Clooney is like a Chanel suit, always in, always trendy, always hot.

I'm in great shape, I have personality( that's what people say) I'm outgoing. I'm fine. I wouldn't call myself clingy but you know I like to stay beside my man I think it comes down to the kids. I believe he wants this instant family. I tell him I'll give him a child in a year I just want to be established with my career first. He's 46 so he's impatient.
