I meet several men a year but it never seems to last for longer then two weeks as they usally end up getting bored and leaving me for someone else. I cant help but feel that there is far too much competition out there with regards to all the other women out there. It seems that for every man that I like, there are three more always competing for his attention. Realistically I can not see how I am ever going to meet anyone when men have so many better women to choose from ie younger, slimmer etc. I know personality counts but lets face it, we are living in a shallow world!

Hey Q1605 I maybe 40 but I have been told I look younger and there is life in the old chick yet lol :)). Men go wild for the older woman let me tell you, I have even been hit on by guys in their early twenties.
Older women tend to be more experienced have less hang ups about themselves, plus men are not so pressurised about having children either as my kids are 19 and 18. You can have a more of a mature conversation with us and its not all getting my nails and hair done though I do tend to make an effort with my appearance. I will put a better pic of me on Dear Cupid so you can see me without the ridiculous shade on LOL.

I haven't slept with a woman under the age of forty in several years. And i never even thought about it until I read duskyrowes answer. I really don't have a problem with it. At all. I guess a part of me would like to roll in the sack with some young tart on occasion but i might be called on to make polite chit chat and I couldn't bear it. Give me a woman. A real woman. Someone who will call me on my shit. One that when she prefaces her statement to me with hey dumb-ass doesn't start an argument but will shut me up. Not from being whipped or hen pecked but because if she is calling me a dumb ass i better back up and take a reading because as bitchy as she may sound she is really just arresting the spread of me being or saying something stupid. There is a tolerant grace in a mature woman that you just don't see under a certain age. If their bodies have a little wear on them its because she gave birth to those chilluns always underfoot. Wiping noses fixing boo boos resurrecting left overs and working full time as well as banging me senseless sometimes just builds character and you will just have to take my word for it. And my point? ummm men don't have the market cornered when it comes to aging gracefully. So relax and be who you are. Its not a race. he's out there and one of you will find the other. I promise you.

Younger and slimmer???? Blimey I am not exactly a spring chicken myself at the age of forty, I do not have a washboard stomach but somehow I can attract guys like flies round a jam jar. Sorry I wasn't boasting but men like women all ages shapes and sizes and thats a fact.
Maybe the guys you seem to go for are shallow,egotistical and totally wrong for you. How do come accross to guys? Maybe you come accross as needy, I don't know because you have not elaborated what it is that makes them run into the arms of another woman. Allow me to let you into a secret. I have just read a great book called "Hot Relationships" written by Tracey Cox, she is a relationship guru and has been on T.V.in a programme Would like to meet, its about people who have no or very little success with relationships and she teaches you how to dress, body language and how to conduct yourself on dates.
www.traceycox.com She has also on website and is worth a look. Hope I have been of help, Dusky xxx.
