re: Dating as a 40 Year Old Man, How Realistic is it?

Easier than in college! Just depends on how much you want to "date" and how many kids are you willing to deal with is the only question you have to ask yourself. As long as you are semi successful and not socially awkward it is very easy but here to warn you, it gets old fast....

I would focus more on hobbies and just date women to suppliment that life style if I had to do it over again.
