There are a few men like a good friend of mine, Mike, who is in his early 40's, has never been married, but still has more or less given up on marrying a suitable young woman and startng a family. From his days a football player in high school, he has continued to weight train, but from time to time has gained a bit of weight. When he is on his slender size, he has the height (6'2") and muscular build to be attractive. Of course he is also going quite bald and is an AFC, but he is getting better.
Although he would prefer a woman without baggage, for the right woman, he could go for it. Right now he is concentrating on an early 40's woman that resembles Adrian Barbeau (with no baggage). I could see if you were the aggressor with him, that he would go with you (assuming you are as sexy as you say.) Certainly having a strong and easy flowing sex drive would be essential to keep him. Like he tells me, he really doesn't care to put up with the attitudes of the women 15-20 years his junior. He figures that if he is with an ice queen who plays games, he's just going move on.
I personally have not given up on the young women. What is the point? We can always detour with a ONS with a woman like you, and then get back on track on our primary quest of getting a young, high sexual value woman. There is the Baby Echo generation that is coming of decent dating age, and I have been finding it easier and easier to meet such women. And the fact is that late 30's guys like me and Ulrich, who have taken care of ourselves and look young are saying that we want the young unladen women rather than ones our age. So your options for meeting suitable men are getting worse by the day. And when Ulrich and I are 55, yes, we probably are going to go after the women like you are now.
Really, I wish you well. Maybe 10 years from now, the Social Security crowd will hit on you.
I am 35 and have seen attractive women aged 45, 55, and even 60. (Not many, mind you, but some). But you are vomiting into the keyboard at the very thought of the number 50--"Yecch! Ick! Blecch!" The previous poster has a point--have you not had to make any concessions to compensate for all the baggage you come with? Are the Brad Pitts of the world really lined up at your door? Good grief, even George Clooney is too ugly for you. Are you able to get what you want with standards that, as far as I can tell, are over the moon?
