Be careful for what you wish. You just might get it.

Peace and blessings.

I read an interesting study a while back. It basically found that men as they age want to date women as young as they can get--mainly as an ego feed. Which is more saying to themselves I can still get this. It is what it is.

Unfortunately for you men though the younger gals are often looking at you for your security. So you have your part to uphold.

There is nothing wrong with going for what you want in my opinion. You do however have to uphold what she is often looking to you for as well though and this may be why older men choose older women. (one of the many reasons as we are also more experienced in the sack and in the head and heart :-)

As someone who dated a man 12 years my senior for six years that started when I was twenty one, I can attest to the fact that his wealth and looks were factors. As soon as his belly showed up and his pocket book depleted and his chin show signs of drooping, I suddenly found men my own age interesting again. Just saying.

You also better be a good lover. Age and experience only keep a young girls interest for so long. Diamonds though are forever. haha.

My advice? Ride your horse and see where it takes you. If you continue to desire and can attract younger ladies then this is where you are at and it is working for you. Enjoy it and swallow it whole. It will take you where you need to go. Who knows where that is. In the interim just enjoy it. Get out of your head. Life is too short.

Flame away

All right. You should take that tendonitis seriously and modify your exercise routine to give your body time to heal.

As for your love life, best of luck.

I think you're twenty days too late.

If you're serious, I have nothing to say except good luck, you'll need it.

She offered her honor

And he honored her offer.

And all night long

He was on her and off her.

My advice (I am a woman): Slow down and stop trying so hard! Be yourself. True love comes when you least expect it and weren’t forcing yourself to try and find companionship.

You can’t change anyone, so don’t try to. Move on if something about that person really bothers you, because if it’s hard to take now it won’t get any easier.

Talk to a lot of people and don’t have it in your head “Could this be the one?” Just talk to them as people, and you’ll know it in your gut as well as your heart if you’ve found true love. When someone seems like they’re
constantly trying to meet “Miss Right”, they can come across as a stalker!

Relax. If this new, younger girl you met is meant to be your true love, like I said, take it slow. Dinner, a movie, talk about common interests, goals, what do either of you want in the way of a family? If you find you have common interests and a love connection, date at least a year before getting married, if you plan too. Things will reveal themselves in that time,
good or bad. And if it’s bad, walk away.

I was 22 and maybe it’s a female thing but finished college and started thinking about the future. Before it was just yeah, your my boyfriend, but I
got serious and tried so hard to find the right guy. I took a job in retail to make some money while I made resumes and looked for a career. I was so busy I forgot about my love life! And then in walked Mr. Right! We had so much in common! He was finishing college and wanted a P/T job. I got him hired the next day! We talked about everything! He still says he can sue me for sexual harassment at the work place! Two kids and going on 16 years of Marriage, we’re still together.

One funny thing is I always said I loved the way he dressed. Later, I found out he would go into a high end department story and find a mannequin that looked good and request those clothes in his size! So he could never dress the kids when they were little, you should have seen what he’d have them wearing!

I know I am a complete idiot. I can’t help it. I will be working out extra hard now and suffering more from tendonitis than I ever have in my life.

Dude. Have one more drink and go to bed. Wake up and go fishing. I am. And with no asian females...

It's obvious, you are a complete idiot.

You aren't going to get younger and may not be able to maintain good physical condition into old age. You may get stuck with a younger woman who cleans out your life savings and leaves you drooling in your wheelchair.

Life IS an endless vicious cycle.

Seriously, im 41 single. I have 4 degrees. Not a nerd. Quite the opposite. I am wanting the same as you. I don’t have kids and have been divorced once. No hard feelings. I still like to party. I fish. I have a boat. Im simple and I enjoy life. I hope that true love happens. But im not banking on it.. and im an average guy you would see at your workplace. I don’t care for drama and noise...

My life is an endless vicious cycle

Dear Mamelukesabre, Unlike you, I was divorced and having the burden of two very young daughters to raise on my own - the wife having abandoned all of us. There is no reason to go into the details, but for one thing:

I felt prompted to pray one sleepless night a couple of years after; that I would give my heart and service to a woman in need with one small son; not my will be done, but Thine.

That prayer was answered by Christ's grace. Today I have a ER Nurse that I give my heart and service and am privileged to pray daily for that wee lad now a Staff Sargent in the United States Air-Force.

My advice to you, friend in need, is to pray. Start with adoring God who answers prayer; give praise to God who has sustained you thus far. Confess as much sin as you can; cast as much selfishness as far away as you can. Thank the Lord for helping you to pray this way; thank Him that He knows the desire of your heart and what you will ask even before you ask it.

Then Ask in only one or two sentences and be specific as you can as you have felt prompted.

God delights in the prayers of His children and His answers are full of His excellence.

Many Answers to Prayer,

SR

Fun and easy 3 steps for ya!

Step 1: Grow up

Step 2: Stop soliciting strangers on the internet for advice on scoring “The Woman of your Dreams”.

Step 3: Have a real and meaningful relationship.

Thats all there is to it! Try not to over-think it.

My advise is figure out who you are in your heart of hearts. What do you really care about? What do you enjoy doing? What are your goals in life? These are the kind of questions that you need to ask about yourself. Get to know yourself better and then look for a lady that compliments who you really are on the inside.

Also, meditate on love. Find someone you can really love for who they are, not how old they are or if they are terribly beautiful. When you do find someone to really love, find out if they really love you. If you love each other then get married. To be married is to be committed to loving each other for your whole lifetime no matter what happens. Love is a choice and a commitment. Marriage is the ground by which that love can grow and flourish.

Of course, God is the source of true love, so get connected with Him and He will guide your love and love through you. Love focuses on it's object and not on it's self. Love is the song that life is meant to sing. Hope you find it's song.

I wish you the best of luck, god knows I have been single for too long...
But my bet would be thumbs down. The reason I say it is of the most successful relationships I have had, the very best were the ones where we were friends first. I have been single since my wife passed, going on about 12 yrs. We were married for about 12 years. I knew her and we were friends for about 2 1/2 years before we started going out.

But don’t get me wrong, I was hot for her even before we got together, she was a beautiful 5’2” blonde gal who weighed about 115 dripping wet...

But we were friends first and that was key.

Now I am so isolated I doubt whether that could ever happen again.

Good Luck!
