Let's put this to rest. We always hear how men want to date younger women and if you're older than 30 (or whatever age is considered old) your dating life is over and you should take (and be greatful for) whatever comes your way.

Is that true in your experience? Are men in your own age range asking you out, approaching or showing interest?

Would you say more in your 30's or less?

No, I wouldn't say that. Some women look much better in there 30s and 40s and so on than in there 20s. Some look worse in there 30s than there 20s etc. I'd say that most people are different.

Like I don't know how Raena looked in her 20s, but she should be...Ankle high in D? Maybe calf high?

Not true. I'm in a relationship with a wonderful man, but I was well over 30 when I met him and didn't feel my dating life was over. Nor did/do I feel I'd have to take and be grateful for whatever comes my way. I prefer an older gentleman, but men of all ages have shown interest.

I almost gave into the myth that we lose 'marketability' with age. For the longest time, I allowed externals to define my personal value. I feel better about myself now, at 45, than I ever have. I don't have to settle. I'll have what I want, or I'll be alone. I'm OK with that too. But when you truly, truly love yourself (and you take care of yourself because of it), it shows in everything you do. I don't think people like that are alone for long unless it is what they prefer. They just can't help but attract people who want to be around them.

It's more how people take care of themselves. I know plenty of 40+ year old women who are absolute knock-outs and plenty of 20-something's that have let themselves go.

Age is just a number.

I won't date anyone younger than 24.. Most of them seem like kids to me.
I'm 30.

I'm not single, but I get MUCH more attention now than I did when I was in my late-teens/early-20's. I can never quite believe all the hype about women my age being "past their prime" for that reason.

Men choose based upon many factors. Often times it's excess baggage and physiological damage which points them towards younger, fresher women. Women should get over it, they don't feel sorry in the least throwing the men of the same "past their prime" out in the garbage.

My experience is that dating after 30, and after 40, rocks.

Those guys who say women stop being thigh deep in d after 30 are all virgins. They don't know about real, grownup, sex.

I have always dated younger men. I don't go looking for them...they just always find me.
