Geez, for a pathetic loser you sure are good at finding excuses as to why you're a pathetic loser. You're very successful at proving beyond a reasonable doubt what a pathetic loser you are. Kuddos to you.I do not have much to offer a woman for my age because I have dated very little and have even less sexual experience. (No woman wants to teach a man my age about sex). Second, I am too old to offer her children. What woman in her right mind wants a man 44 to be the father of our child? (I would be over 50 when the child entered preschool.) Third, at my age I do not have the libido of someone in his 30's. Fourth, the responsiblilty is on me to evaluate the situation if a woman in her 20's is wanting to date me. I have to decide for her if she is mature enough and understands the age difference and that it is not infatuation. Because I will be burned in the long run by divorce if I do not examine the situation in depth. Sure she may be interested in me because she may "assume" I have a huge pile of money but she will be rudely awakened when she finds out I do not. Fifth, just because a woman flirts with me "does not" mean she will date me. I have gotten this far with other women but when they start probing and find out I am nieve, they decide to turn the offer down.

It's not rocket science - I wouldn't stress about it. Best advice I can give you is that when you're actually having a sexual experience with someone else you just try to turn off your rational mind and let instinct take over. Mother nature makes sure that all the species know how to procreate - so just use the skills you were given.Originally posted by frankcd

You're thinking about 50 steps too far into the future. How about thinking about how to actually get her to want to be naked with you first?Second, I am too old to offer her children.

Again, another bridge you shouldn't be worrying about crossing until you get to it.Third, at my age I do not have the libido of someone in his 30's.
No! This is NOT your responsibility. That's HER descision, your responsibility to decide whether you are attracted to her or not - that's all.Fourth, the responsiblilty is on me to evaluate the situation if a woman in her 20's is wanting to date me. I have to decide for her if she is mature enough and understands the age difference and that it is not infatuation.
You're obviously not answering in the correct way. I'll bet you're saying stuff like "No I'm hopeless with women so I haven't had any success what-so-ever." Your past is passed and how you choose to interpret it is all that matters, not the what the facts are. "I haven't loved anybody enough yet" sounds better than "Nobody else loved me enough" Same facts there - no relationship - just a different spin on it.Fifth, just because a woman flirts with me "does not" mean she will date me. I have gotten this far with other women but when they start probing and find out I am nieve, they decide to turn the offer down. (Hence Sara asking me if I had been in a serious relationship. She was 24 but cunning enough to sense something and ask that question).
This makes no sense at all. If ever you're asking yourself "Why does such and such want to date me?" you're already in the wrong frame of mind because all you're subconsciously doing is finding reasons why they shouldn't want to. This just destroys self esteem and for what? - some sh!t you made up in your head. Ya just gotta rejoice in the FACT that they do wanna date you.Sixth, of course there are women out there who want to date older men but you have to ask "WHY". Just because she wants to or is interested in me I do not have to oblige.
Four words - "F*ck what they say." You turn up to any work social function with a 20 something year old chick on your arm they are not going to be thinking "Whoa, look at Mr Immaturity over there." They're gonna thinking "Lucky prick gets to a bone 20 year old while I've just got my wrinkly, nagging, dried up, 50 year old wife to go home to tonight."A couple of close friends and co-workers have advised me not to even bother. One laughed, and said do you plan to adopt her? It could even hurt my career if I am seen at social functions with a woman who could be my daughter. I am better off stag than with a woman in her 20's attending with me. My managers could possibly have second thoughts about my maturity and common sense.

Where do you get off telling him what age women he should be attracted to. If some 20 something year old wants to be with him whats the problem?Originally posted by Falcon Eye
Frank you're 44 years old, why do you even consider hooking up with women who are in their twenties.? What could you possibly have in common with them? Forget the twenty-something girls Frank.
You need to be looking for women in the thirty-five to fifty-five age group, of which there are a lot.
Exactly, and you're only as old as the girl you're feeling. Look women in their twenties are adult enough to know whether they want to be seen with a 40 year guy. Man, I don't want my options closed to me when I'm his age. And I especially don't want to be considering women 10-11 years older than me when I'm middle aged.Life is short Frank, and then your dead for a long time...
I'm not telling him what age he should be attracted to; hell I see lots of twenty something girls that are very attractive, that doesn't mean that I have a hell of a lot in common with them.Originally posted by Howie Farkes

Well maybe its time to start hanging out with other single guys. You know, learn some pickup skills here and there, go pack hunting. Even just discuss female psche or possible approaches. Find a miniture support group for your pursuits. Think of it as your "base of operations". When you fail your mission, you always return to base and start a new one. Infact, this board is alot like that.So I have been around women a major portion of my life.
This is an "I wish" statement. Wishing never helped anyone. You don't wait for a "ray of hope" to carry you away - women do that and even when they get it they aren't happy. The more you "wish" for change, The more you'l plumet into a helpless existance. Wishing robs you of your action-power.Well what can I do to have a ray of hope to shoot for?
Only you two know if the flame is snuffed. Are you telling us everything? Did you do or say anything weird around her? It's odd that she would "next" you just because you didn't instantly pounce. Most women would still treat you as a friend after you blew your chance, if you did have a chance to begin with.Well what can I do to have a ray of hope to shoot for? She did like me, this last one, I could tell by the look in her eyes when she saw me. But again, since I moved like the turtle she just decided to move on. If you say the flame is snuffed out then I will move on to another. But you have to remember I do not get many opportunities so maybe I should try and salvage the ones I have.
That's understandable. But remeber you have a long time left. You have many more fresh starts, if you want them.I am not using my age as an excuse but I am 44.
You're right. What can I say?If it hurts to read this thread, than you should be in my shoes for one day and see what I go through.
Every guy has thought that at one time. I thought that about some beautiful women I've seen. But now, I really believe I have a chance with any woman. ANY woman would be lucky to know me(That isn't some DJ way of pumping myself up. I know I am unique and have a great deal to offer). I didn't always think this way. It took time. It will take time with you.Sometimes I just look at a woman and I will think to myself I have no chance. Then I just forget her. And of the 1 in a 100 that I see a chance I end up messing up.
Why the negative thoughts? There are posts in the "bible," I believe, which talk about imagining the BEST outcome. Do a search and try to find that.Don't get me wrong, I chatted with a few women today and it was fun. But that is as far as I can get. (Then the negative thoughts start happening) The woman in church, the second time I saw her we exchanged names and I shook her hand. (I fought the negative vibes for the first time in maybe two years). (Sara was just a kid, and everything about that situation was wrong. I read more into it that then was there.) Then, back to the church woman, I did something, whether it was I took to long or who knows, that she gave me the look of death the last time I saw her.
And you shouldn't apologize. But what are you doing to feel guilt? You obviously feel you need to apologize for something. What is it? Give us details. Can you paraphrase one of your conversations for us?Again, I promise I will not apologize to any women for what I may think I did wrong. But I do have to take some blame if I did act like a fool or jackass. And by having to get enough balls to apologize, maybe that will make me realize it is easier to do it right the first time.
Out of curiosity, what advice did he offer?Originally posted by frankcd
P.S. A man who is the author of relationship/dating books found this post and emailed me. He told me, have a positive outcome in starting a relationship and he will write about me in his next book. I am 100% truthful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He told me that in his "expert" opinion the TV gal is still a go.
See ya,
Frank
