OP, a 40-something wouldn't be considered a catch by most 20-something women. You should look closer to your age; women 35 and up, more or less.
Not true what you are saying. I have seen 20 something women marry guys who are in their mid 40s and it was for love. And NO!!!! The woman didn't run for the guy because he was filthy rich. He had an average job and he was a person with a good heart. And the woman was down to earth. She was not a gold digger. It can be done if the woman is mature enough and loves the guy for who he is , there can be a relationship out of It. Problem is that a lot of women can be shallow and just go for a guy because he looks like some soap opera hottie. But looks aren't everything, he can be a really good looking person but have a terrible attitude. Just like in the movie sleeping with the enemy. The husband was good looking and successful but a complete psychopath . And there ARE couple like that movie. I obviously am not like that.

Sound good on paper but there could still be issues. Most of these traits are pretty superficial. You haven't really discussed the traits that matter for a LTR. I have a friend who is 36 and looks great on paper but continually picks questionable women to date. He also has a bit of temper but probably doesn't realize it since his dad is the same way.
And to be honest in my 20s I wouldn't consider a 40 yr old. At that time 40 just seemed OLD...
Not necessarily true. There are women who will go for guys in their 40s who are in their 20s and NOT because of being filthy rich. If the woman is mature enough she will see the guy for who he is

That is the exception, not the rule, and you guys in your 40's need to accept that women closer to your age are more likely companions.
Ok, can someone give a true mature reason why a 20 something woman would not interested in a 40 year old man? The guy can be physically active meaning he is still young to participate in all kinds of activities. He has interests in many things. He would treat the woman nice. He is established more in his career. He will not play games as to a relationship. He seriously wants to have a good relationship. He has a good attitude about things. So what is the problem? Give reasons why he is too old.
Because most young women don't want to date someone who is old enough to be their father.
Also, your defensiveness about this shows a lack of maturity and understanding about dating and women. It really does. Women in their twenties like dating men in their twenties, that's just the way it is. There are exceptions yes, but they are not the rule. And if a 25 year old marries a 45 year old, when she is 45 she is now married to a senior citizen. Not something young women relish.
You want to be rated on an assessment of yourself conducted by yourself that only lists your highlights and unicorn rainbow butterfly kittens and none of the dark days nor flaws which you absolutely dont have?
There is absolutely no way to tell. Could be there is no attraction. You could be a jerk, or a slob, or whatever. A ton of things could make you a bad match for "hypothetical person here", religious views don't match, financial styles are different, etc. A lot of those things are trivial, such as attend plays...

Sure. I was a 20 year old woman and found guys your age gross, not attractive, no fun, and OLD. Didn't matter how good he looked for his age, he was still OLD.
Sure, you may find some who like older guys, but not the majority.
