Great mom, hard worker, smart, business owner… yeah, I chose well

I’m 40. I quit looking 10 years ago.


I hit 62 this year. Haven't been interested in anyone since 2016.

Last 2 guys I dated were liars and cheats and I am not saying that to be mean. Lying about your status (single, married, divorced) only gets you so far.

The first one died of some sort of cancer. I met him online. He was both a liar and a cheater.

Second one got his 3rd DUI about a year ago in which he had an MVA (single car crash). I knew him from my high school days. Didn't know about the DUIs until I searched after I stopped talking to him. Don't need someone who has a substance abuse issue and lack of common sense.

The pickings aren't good for my side of the field either.

I have traveled by myself to Hawaii, islands in the Caribbean and met all sorts of people from all walks of life but no one I would want to be in a relationship with until the end of my days.

I go to LSU football games. I am more of a homebody now except for random travel. My lifestyle now makes it harder to meet people and make new friends.

Some of us I suppose are meant to be single and I'm good with that. If you are meant to be with someone, you will find that person no matter how long it takes.

Two things single women over 50 in Louisiana say nonstop:

1.I hate carrying the financial weight. I don't feel like my true self at work. Men are lucky that way.

2.Men are shite. Where have all the good men gone? Why can't I find an old -fashioned gentleman?

I'm not belittling this view. I'm acknowledging the prevalence of it. What do you think the male complaint narrative is?

Lord knows I have done this more than my fair share

I honestly think most men and women become something they are not to attract the opposite sex so when they become who they really are they lose interest in each other. I am not that smart and I am not at all good at dating "games" or "drama". If I am angry with you I really do not want to have sex with you. If you try to make me jealous, I am out the door.

My view is most humans want to dominate or be dominated, just not wired to either point. If you are in this group, figure out what you want and don't play games to get it.

The good news is that if you're a decent guy, in shape, with hair (seems to be a big deal), and you've had stable relationships, you can find a lot of women that are pretty nice.

You just have to watch out for the red flags.

I don't say those things. Maybe you're hanging out with the wrong over 50 crowd.

Old fashioned gentlemen? Those days have long been gone. If a man really wants to be with a woman, there is no driving him away unless you're bat shite crazy and then it may take him a while to realize it.

I don't know what the male complaint is except the OP who said it is hard to find a good decent woman. I tend to agree. Dating sites suck. There isn't a place to meet people. Maybe this is why the new Bachelor is 72 and going on TV to find someone. Curious to see if the older women contestants will be as catty and petty as the younger ones.

When I was interested in meeting someone years ago, all the men my age were looking for people half my age because they can. If I had done that, I'd be called a cougar. There is no name for the male counterpart except for maybe a child molester? J/K.

This is a good point. I find people that fall into either of those categories exhausting and they rarely have stable relationships because there's always an imbalance.

This goes back to my earlier post disagreeing with the idea that a man "puts the woman in line" with his nature. That's how people get into abusive situations and they can't tell its abusive. There's a fine line between "domineering" and abusive.

I think many women are angry angry at their “ diminishing “ value to men . Men do value relative youth in a way women don’t. That said, I think guys often go “young hot” when they would find relationship balance better with the traditional 5 year range . Someone who compliments the best parts of you and roughly your age.

There is a double standard between men dating way younger than women doing the same. Doesn't make me angry. Just proves that these guys think they're hot when not aren't thinking with their head that's atop their shoulders.

None of this solves where to meet decent people if you want to date, marry, whatever.

You gave no traits other than height/weight/academics.

A lot of nutcases could fit those categories and do.

I seem too dumb to notice height / weight / hair color

What sports? Jock women seem to take interest in me

graduated summa cum laude with a doctorate. Seems kinda vague. I seem comfortable with some degrees and lost in other. I still do not understand the modern degree in "communications" when most seem to have no clue on how to communicate. Seems to attract the hot sorority women but what do they do with the degree?
