Me TOO!!

Quote From: golden1

     Here, here! It seems that once you hit 30 (or more accurately, IT hits YOU!), you're supposed to grateful for whatever comes your way. Just bite your lip, smile and scrape the bottom of the barrel.  You know something? You may have just presented an idea for a show featuring single women over 40 and looking for love. That might get ME on the show.

I've never written on the Dr. Phil message board but  just had to write because the dating game after 50 is totally different....we think differently...we respond differently.  We know more about life and what we want but perhaps have forgotten how to be open to sharing.    How about the widowed person??  A completely different mindset.

So Dr Phil - up to the challenge of the over 40 Ladies?

I couldn't agree more with the older ladies!  I feel like I have 3 strikes against me when I meet men.  

  

If they are younger than I am (in their 30's or younger) they either just want Mrs. Robinson or they want to have a family of their own (strike one - I should not get pregnant again as my health is not up for it). If they are my age (in their 40's) then they are looking for women in their 20-30's (strike two - I'm not young enough because I'm 47 even though I don't look that old). If they are older than I am (in their 50's plus) they are so close to retirement they can taste it and they want the freedom of no kids or kids old enough to take care of themselves (strike three - I have a 6 year old and I am not free to take off at the drop of a dime).   

  

So Dr Phil - what should we older ladies with kids do? Wait for another 10+ years until we can take off with the retirees on their freedom rides? Or "get thee to a nunnery"?

Or, as the saying goes...

Men age like wine, while women age like milk.
