when you are young they look for a body. when you are old they look for a wallet.

Yes but it was my income. I had several propositions after I finished my engineering degree at the ripe old age of 31. When my husband and I separated last year, I registered for an on line dating service and had several express interest then I took my income off of my profile and the hits stopped

Now that I'm a low paid teacher, maybe I should try again just to see what happens. I'll bet I'm back to undesirable. I'm broke now. (I work at a charter and charters don't pay like public schools do).

I'm sorry, but I think it's extremely dumb and tacky to fill out the income field of a profile unless that's all one has to offer. A rough estimate can be done by the profession and education anyway.

Men as they get older, 45+, are definitely more physically and mentally attractive to me.
Out of curiousity why do you wear a ring? Built in excuse?
Frankly, anyone that ever came onto me while I was wearing a wedding ring would pretty much go into the "never date" hopper.

I get more attention now (46) then I ever have.

My secret: I am happy with myself. I am projecting good vibes. If you have it going on, people will want it, too!

I always had dates/advances/etc in my early 20's but they did seem to increase in my later 20's up to 30. At that point I was getting dates every where I looked, it was ridiculous. And thats when I met my husband as well. Not sure what happened, if it was due to getting fit and losing 5 pounds or just the confidence that came along with it, but it was certainly a fun time.

I've noticed many more guys taking notice of me in my 30's than I ever did in my 20's. Maybe it's the self-confidence I have now that I didn't then? Most people that meet me are surprised when I say my age and think I look about 10 years younger than I am.

Yay for people that are happy with themselves!! We need more of them around. I think that's the secret to my appeal also.
