Why is dating considerably easier after 40

You forgot:

Always good for at least ten minutes of conversation!

Erm, Grisha? That's a ladyboy.

Really? I can see it now, but in this case it's really well done - usually I can tell immediately.

Does this mean "s/he" has a thingy? eww...

Her face is really quite scary.

is it?

Don't laugh; an awful lot of guys are really into this. Including English Premiership footballers...

Sorry no idea ask me that then when I turn 40.

If premiership football was like dating, the transfer market would be a magnet for agents and WAGs.
Plus there be lots of opportunities for extra-marital training to work on making passes, shooting in the box and playing away from home, Giggs and Rooney come to mind about that

It is? Yay! Now looking forward to 40.

The thing is it has to be butter for me to find someone.

Can't believe no-one doesn't want to be with you.

I find this statement incredulous as well...

I figured it out pretty quickly. The looks aren't a total dead giveaway, but I just knew anyway.

Then you're right, because I'm a...



...what I really meant was:

"I can't believe that no-one wants to be with you."

Is this right?!

A-hem.

I don't know what will become of me if I have to wait just over 3 years until I'm 40 to find someone or for it to get easier. As another poster said, being a single Mom makes it hard. I don't see how it will get easier as my children are always with me so if that is the deal breaker it is an obvious one to anyone I come in contact with.
Ha ha, maybe it will get easier in 3 yrs because by some miracle my children won't be with me every single time I go out of the house! I really know though, 40 or not, I know now better than ever, who I am, what I want, that part is easier I suppose. Just maturity factor, experience and the mellowing out that time allows us could be key to ease of this pursuit.
We can hope so!

Some other people might not feel you opinion is the case,but I can see your line of thought.To me dating after I'm 40 might be easier for two main reasons.

1: Girls that are in their teens,20's,and even 30's are sometimes very immature/more Judgmental.Both of which can hinder a relationship,especially if you're a socially awkward Aspie.

2: Women in their 40's that want children and don't yet have them may realize their time is extremely limited.Therefore the higher and often unrealistic expectations of their younger days are thrown aside.But I think most would not fall into that category.Most likely a woman in her 40's has already had children and satisfied her maternal need.Also many may even be grown and no longer living with her,so you don't have to take care of another guys kids.By this stage many Women that married younger will have divorced their ex's and just want physical and financial security,rather than the thrill seeking of youth.This is a good thing if you merely want a mature loving partner for mutual affection.However if you want to father children it's not a very good place to be.

If the later is your desire have you ever considered going overseas and maybe striking up a relationship with a younger foreign woman?No offense to those who aren't,but western women in general tend to be more thrill seeking and less interested in deep romantic and family relationships.Once again don't be offended people..I'm saying westernized woman as a whole tend to be this way.I would be wary of websites that promise 'foreign Brides' though as they sometimes tend to be a scam.Even if you find a eastern woman nothing is certain.But maybe while you're on the prowl here in the west you could use a free Penpal service to chat up Asian and European girls in your spare time.

Since when? I think it got harder. Expectations of maturity level increases and I don't feel or act my age, no matter how hard I may try to it just didn't work. So gave up on trying and that doesn't work either.
