OK that is ridiculous the static image on the video but it has lots of before and after examples, no one is finished at our age.
I will be 50 in a few years, I can't even believe it, I thought it would be different, that I would be different but I am still the same person !! Not an old fart at all. I still like the same things as I did in my 20s. I go to the gym every day between 30-60 minutes of weight lifting that's all it takes, I don't do anything special and at the beach I do look better then the majority of dudes my age. I started going to the gym regularly again at 40 I did not know what to expect but it had the same effect as it did in my 20s
Damn TV advertising telling the world, the younger ladies, we all have "Low T" and can't get anything done without Viagra, its such bull !! When I first started the gym again I had the belief it wasn't going to work cause that stuff was in my head too. I'm 40 its all down hill now, not true !!
I need to find a woman my age, I keep befriending these women in their 20s who because I am in good shape and don't act 'old' they have no problem hanging out with me but they aren't into long term or any kind of official relationship. I am planning to do the online thing again and I am dreading it. Here we go again spending and hour writing 20 replies and getting nothing back because the attractive ladies get overwhelmed with 100s of replies. I get irritated and just delete my account in a week.
I have thought about this exact topic that each year I see fewer and fewer ladies my age in shape. I never know what to write in an online ad but I guess I should just write in my ad I want someone into the fitness lifestyle and be firm about it. Its not all about looks why I do the gym either I am scared of getting old.
Once again, another older man lamenting his lack of appeal to women who are young enough to be his daughters. The truth is that men like yourself don't want women your own age (in shape or not) because I am sure that there are age-appropriate, in-shape women who are working out in the gym right along with you.
When I met my wife she was 5'1' and 180. The problem with the weight is medication she's on. She has a problem where her body doesn't produce adrenaline so she's been on steroids and other meds for almost 40 years. I wasn't, and still aren't, exactly Twiggy's twin brother. When we met I was 5'7" and 275. But I don't judge people on how they look. I look at the person in the body. Always have. My wife said she's been that way too. Was chatting to a lady on a local online personal's page and told her my weight. She said I was too big for her "requirements" (her wording). My wife said she would have liked to have sent her a note and told her thanks for turning me down and she doesn't realize what she turned down. Made me smile!
Well, you know, back when I was a server, you could tell a lot about a person by what they ordered.
Well-done steaks, thousand-island dressing, just water to drink....my snap judgements were usually right.

Food choices can say a lot about a person.
not only what they eat...but how they treat a server...
the persnickety people that no matter what menu they looked at ...would ask if 4 things could be altered … and its never good enough....that dismissive picky attitude ...carries over in most areas of their life... in my experience....
sometimes guys aren't overly critical or picky of a ladys appearance .....its a double edge sword....if you do get the prettiest flower in the garden....every other male bee wants to pollinate it..
ive actually seen women being very critical of other women..

Then you got to know the people you served intimately?

Not really. Its small but its a 24 hour one and nearby so I actually go. Chronological age I don't care as long as they can be fun.
I have always found that the men who are the MOST critical of women's looks/fitness/behavior are the ones who have the least to offer as a potential partners.
I totally agree if by least to offer you also mean beyond the looks and fitness because sometimes that's ALL they have to offer. Pretty to look at but nothing more...

A person likes what he/she likes. Whether it's wrong or not socially appropriate or shameful or whatever -- it's common for older men/women to find younger women/men attractive. It's biology. And women are just as prone to looking at younger guys. Look at all these female teachers who get in trouble for having sexual relations with teenage boys. Both sexes can be equally "dirty" or "inappropriate" or whatever adjective or descriptor you would like to use to describe a seemingly inappropriate pairing between two genders of vastly different ages.
I have the same experience first hand. I am 44 Asian female. I am relatively tall (5'7") and fit. I have good skin and I wear light makeup. I got so many 20s and early 30s guys messaged me and they all told me they like older women and I look young and pretty. I just don't get it. There are tons of attractive women at their own age group who also look pretty and fit. I wonder if they think I can be their sugar mama.
I also got many messages from men way older than me. They all look like my father so there is no chance I would date them. Many men at my own age group also look old with wrinkles on face and grey hair all over. Many of them have beard and that just makes them look dirty. I guess they totally let go of their look.
I have no wrinkle or visible grey hair. I would prefer to date someone who also cares about how he looks. Unfortunately, the majority of men at their 40s look aged. I don't mind chubby but I can't tolerate men look aged at their 40s already. That means they will even deteriorate more when they get into 50s.
I am hitting a dead end now.
It's normal to have grey hair in one's 40s. Do you dye your hair? Many people start going grey in their 20s/30s as well. And personally, I think dyed hair looks weird, especially on men. Just be natural and work with what you have.
