At this point, OP just do mail order bride. Or even cheaper, apparently if you’re. White dude just walk anywhere in Brazil. All they want is a man who can provide them stability.

Thanks for all the replies. I'll admit I've only gotten through about half since I headed off to work shortly after I started the thread. Great ideas though and it makes me feel more positive about the future in terms of finding a woman. I know it won't be easy and I'm definitely working on myself physically and mentally (one poster was right in that I do lack some self confidence with women and I do tend to overthink it). But I appreciate all the good advice so far.

Hit the gym, hit the gym, hit the gym.......frick all that. What you see is what you get. These broads have the same mentality, they aint going to a gym or working out.

They're out there, you just have to temper your expectations. If they seem too good to be true, they're crazy. Do not knock them up or decide to get married quickly if you do meet a seemingly normal woman with no baggage. It's there, she's just hiding it.

I got divorced at 42. 3 years later I’ve been out with 33 women and had relationships with 6.
It’s VERY difficult to find a keeper. I’ve dated girls from 25-49 years old. A bunch of hotties, but there’s a reason why they are single

I hooked up more in my 40’s than I did in my 20’s. I did Tender app at the time and met some women through that. Also met women from just going out with friends.

Crossfit gyms (ahem, "boxes") are full of divorce/cheating drama. Crossfitters are nutty in general and their personal lives reflect it.


Been doing it for years, been to half a dozen different cf gyms and never experienced anything like this. Then again I go there to workout and I don’t sit around the water faucet gossiping. It’s one of the best ways to get in ‘real’ shape and relatively cheap when you consider your getting solid workouts and a form of personal training. There’s 100% some dumb bullshite you have to deal with but you could say that about anything. Most CF haters are fat

People are attracted to people that are happy and have their shite together.

This... I am going through a divorced that will be finalized this year. what I have learned is women love a guy who is happy and has his shite together. Also a huge plus is if you are funny, that has worked the best for me more than anything else. Being a professional with a good job is something they look for as well, but I think the above is more important to them.

Go to the gym and chat up the fit cutie in the squat rack..


Gym rats come off as full of themselves. Especially the ones that spend a lot of time staring at the mirror.

The ones there doing cardio and other regular exercises do not apply here.

Not fat and I stand firm in believing cross fit is the highest level of douchebaggery that one can associate themselves with.
