As a mature guy, am I too old to get the hot chicks?

Just a kid

Hi guys - please offer me some of your wisdom.

As a 36 year old, I am finding my options for even meeting or finding access to the HB7's and above very difficult. When I was younger (read "in my twenties") I never had a problem with finding hot chicks. They were plentiful and I flexed my attitude when I wanted. But now that I am on the wrong side of 36 I am finding there are less opportunities to actually meet and interact with the top shelf chicks. I am satisfied my skills are getting better at scoring all the time, yet sadly, even having access to women to try my skills on seems to be much tougher than I had imagined.

So are there any tips or bits of advice you guys could give me to make me feel I can meet these chicks or do I just need to accept my age may mean I need to lessen my standards?

For example, its creepy turning up to a nightclub on my own and being twice the the age of some of the punters, - and finding a wingman seems tough as most of the guys my age I know are married. Regardless of this, I also frankly cant be bothered doing the night club scene anymore anyway- I mean standing in line with Gen Y's fighting to get into a club that plays awful music, dealing with young dudes busting into fights and beating each other senseless over in the corner, then spending hours trying to find a taxi home in the wee hours of the morning. That was once a fun life for me but it just no longer appeals. I just can't be bothered there and am sure there has to be other or better ways.

I use internet dating, but chicks on the net, particularly between later 20's to 30's seem pretty unattractive at least in my city. Its clear their profiles need a subtext that says "desperate and leftover". Have tried my hand at night classes and stuff like that to meet chicks but not many hotties at all. Tried hanging in bookstores a bit and meeting a few chicks but it's hard work because a nice looking girl only ever shows up once in a while. Milling round a bookstore hoping a nice girl would show up has meant I have got some great reading done, but I was hoping to find some women there as well!

Running out of ideas here. Maybe I just need a slap, but if so, where do I go head space-wise from here before I slap myself or allow you guys to cyber slap me?

Hahaha. 36? Past it? You should be just beginning. Eight years ago at the tender age of 69 I decided that it was time for me to settle down. I was in the UK at the time. I had been dating young girls for the past 45 years. Never did fancy girls my own age. The final straw came when I was chatting to a girl in a department store and the security guys escorted me out and checked to see if I was on the sex offenders list. That was it for me and the UK. I took a trip to Indonesia for a break and found that I was accosted by beautiful young ladies all over the place. Money? No way, didn't have any. Ended up marrying a beautiful 20 year old and it has been 8 years of heaven here. If you are into Facebook, you can see her photos (Yuyun Archer) here the girls don't really care about age, looks or finance but rather what is inside. Not for a moment am I recommending the ridiculous age difference that we have. This relationship is a one off. I am now ready for all the hate mail from the girls reading this.

Lol, is there anybody on these forums who ISN'T in spectacular shape?
It makes you wonder why some guys here are having trouble with women, since it seems like everyone is in or near elite athletic condition.
Maybe looks aren't important after all.



Not trying to pull your chain, 020204. It just seems like everybody here claims to be in peak condition. Someone must be exaggerating.

Being an athlete or super fit isn't really necessary. How about being sporty?

I think every sizeable town or city will have some sort of sports or social club going on. Get active. You don't have to be super fit. There are tons of people out there all shapes and sizes doing sh!t. Get out there and meet them.

I'm playing in three different leagues right now. Soccer, volleyball, and ultimate frisbee. There are so many chicks there I can't count them all.

Don't focus meeting "hot chicks". Just go out and meet people. Chicks just come and go. Let it happen.

Best meetups IMO are the ones that practically require a fit & trim body to be active in: rock climbing for example. Those women ARE HOT AS HELL!!!! For example, check out the women in the pics here:

Climbing is only a drop in the bucket of what's possible.

There ARE some damned good looking girls at ET.

Do you climb?

I read the other posts too but quoted this one and I agree that most guys here either are having women problems or trying to help others with their women problems or plain trying to learn new ways of getting women.

But even if you look super good if you make classic stupid moves a chick will ditch you period. Or for some stupid reason the chick your with is just clueless and does something dumb which forces you to leave her behind

Thats what happened to me at age 21 and again at 27. Initially looks do matter but they are not the cement which will hold a women to you.

I'll cut it short before I start to Ramble on lol

Another good place (better than a bookstore in my experience) is something like a decorator supply store. Check out places like Hobby Lobby, TJ Maxx, Marshall's, Home Goods, etc. on a Saturday afternoon. These places are crawling with women who would love to give you their opinion on a vase, throw rug, etc. And since you're in their element they are very relaxed and approachable. The young flakely ones aren't there and you're typically looking at a 30+ crowd.

I just turned 36. I still go to clubs w/ a wingman and hit every girls including college girls. I'm currently dating a hot 24 year old.

Also... I don't look my age. Girls thinks I'm 10 years younger. So maybe that's why I still have success.

So I guess my tip is... improve yourself... just because you're 36, it doesn't mean you're declining. Hit the gym. Have fun. I actually look my best now compared 10 years ago.
