A female , anonymous writes:

I am in my late thirties, very attractive and don't have problems meeting guys but I am still single and it's really getting me down. I'm never attracted to guys my age as they look so old, so I always go out with guys in their late twenties and they don't want to settle down. Catch 22!! Anyone got any advice as I think I may end up a lonely old spinster! Even Bridget Jones found someone!!

I can understand where you are comming from. You cannot help what kind of man you are attracted to, however most of the younger guys are not ready to settle down. You could try saving some time by asking them from the start if they are looking for a relationship or just somebody to spend time with.

I think You are way too focused on age and physical appearance. Many women could care less about that because all that matters to them is compatibility. What should really, really matter is-does his values, his level of maturity, his interests, compatibility, his attitude match up to what you want in a potential partner?

Put the age and looks factor out of your mind, and start looking for a man who will has all the wonderful character traits, that you are looking for. There are younger men who could be compatible for you, as well. It's wise to keep being selective, but don't shortchange yourself by not wanting to date a guy, that looks older. There is a lot to be said about older men, they are intriguing and enticing, due to an abundance of life experience. The more life one has had, the more interesting one is. Some women I know, say older men (35+) offer more emotional and financial stabitity along with being more patient, experienced lovers.

Keep an open mind though, and if the right man comes along who loves you, adores you and really means it, no matter what his age or his looks, it's highly likely you will fall in love with him, too. Cut yourself some slack, just relax and he'll come into your life when you least expect it. Good Luck
