irc333 Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 Just saw a profile of a woman who stated she was leaving POF because she just hadn't found a potential partner yet that fits her criteria. She's 50, and has "posed" photos of her either on a motorcycle, swimsuit at the beach, mostly sexy photos of herself, some normal though. I have to admit, for a woman that's 50, she looks damned good for her age. But she always ends the sentence with, "If you feel that we might be good a match...and you're fit and attractive.........(ends the sentence with -for your age......then I'll consider a meet and greet" (She was the one that said she'd rather not do typical online dating meets, and just meet at the POF parties) I just found it funny, she seems to imply...she has a hard time meeting men in their 50's.....that is fit AND attractive.......FOR their age (like her) Does that seem to imply MOST men over 50, are neither both, and well...she's kinda screwed? lol She has herself as a "mixed race", so....that's probably why...she has an exotic, tan look about her, too. She has even entitled her profile (the Headline) "Fabulous at 50..." , which seems to imply a level of arrogance. I think some people get their rocks off the fact that they look good for their age, simply because of good genes.
yongyong Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 'I saw this woman's profile blah blah' Honestly, can you stop it? 1

Does that seem to imply MOST men over 50, are neither both, and well...she's kinda screwed? Finding a fit man, even an unattractive one, over 50 is nearly impossible. That's why I date younger. There are more attractive women over 50 than men because women are always expected to look good while men, until recently, could look like crap and it was acceptable. 3
CarrieT Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 I'm approaching 50 and, yes, when I was dating I realized that most men north of 50 had stopped exercising and were on the tubby side. 1
kiss_andmakeup Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 'I saw this woman's profile blah blah' Honestly, can you stop it? Wow, I agree with you. Honestly. Can you not see how ridiculous this is getting? There was no question for discussion or need for perspectives anywhere in your post. Just regurgitated information from some random woman's OLD profile. What exactly would you like us to do with this information?
CptSaveAho Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 (edited) Funny how all these "fit" women are single and "have" to date younger Problem with OLD... losers like this and like her... they dont care about the person for who they are, they are superficial. I wouldnt date someone like her in her 20s or 30s even if she had 0 baggage. Looking for the "cardboard" cut out of what they think a man should be instead of the actual man.... you wonder why these people are single? because no one in their right mind would enter relationships with them Edited October 12, 2012 by CptSaveAho

sydneysider1978 Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 I don't see that stating that you are looking for someone fit is shallow or superficial... I do something sporty everyday, because I love it and it makes me feel good and healthy. It's a big part of my lifestyle. I wouldn't be compatible with someone who didn't enjoy sport and taking care of their health. She doesn't say that she is looking for younger. Why does this women's profile p&&s you off so much?

I actually enjoy reading some of his posts. he's very perceptive. --------------------------------------------------------------------- there was an article I read saying that woman are getting more beautiful and men are not. basically they have a lot more cosmetics more beautifying products for them. bad for woman, and good for the men. we get prettier woman to choose from. I invest a lot in my body. when I was on OLD I stood out. very muscular, tall, and I dont need a woman to dress me..and I dont look my age. I did look at my competition many times and there was very little, based solely on looks. the men looked horrible from 40 onwards. they looked older than what they wrote. good for me. I only date older woman. but I do think woman expect more from men today, compared to years ago. some of them demand but have nothing to offer themselves. but yet they demand.

Online dating just feels weird to me im in my forties and it isnt how i used to date....its strange .....when i had the most fun dating was when it just happened through meeting someone...... no meat market no choice an occurrence a natural one.......something they say or do attracts me and i follow through.......lol....friend zone first normally.......i met this really sweet guy months ago.......could tell he had depth he was pretty serious,intelligent, had a killer smile respectful huge heart....he holds the same beliefs as i do and he did something random that he didnt have to do .....a couple of things actually....so i looked closer and now i notice everything that's attraction naturally and it doesn't wane....the way i like it.......still attracted and it hasnt progressed beyond friendship...im an endurance type of girl.....not into shopping for men....seems to much like a meat market but i am a bit left of center......deb
Emilia Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 I actually enjoy reading some of his posts. he's very perceptive. Agreed. I like irc's posts, I don't see why he gets flak from time to time for posting these threads. I invest a lot in my body. when I was on OLD I stood out. very muscular, tall, and I dont need a woman to dress me..and I dont look my age. I did look at my competition many times and there was very little, based solely on looks. the men looked horrible from 40 onwards. Yes. I'm 40 and very sporty and have been dating younger men for the last 10 years because I like them fit. I do check out 40 somethings profiles too but only a small percentage don't look f***d in their photos. 1

Maybe time to get off the couch 2
ascendotum Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 Don't let 'foxy & 50' get away irc. Quick put a bid in.
skydiveaddict Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 (edited) Finding a fit man, even an unattractive one, over 50 is nearly impossible. . Most of the e-6 (and above) in my batt are over 50. (including me). I guarantee you we are all in shape, great shape. Edited October 12, 2012 by skydiveaddict 1

Author irc333 Posted October 12, 2012 Author Posted October 12, 2012 I know what you mean. There was this one very attractive older woman I had met through some real life social gatherings. We went on a couple of dates, and she was telling me how she just winds up with men younger than her, usually by 10 years even. It wasn't like she was being a Cougar or anything, and wasn't really expecting the guy to be a tri-athlete, but she told me how she dated this construction worker...and when they were living together. When he'd get home, all he'd do is sit on his arse all weekend, chuggin' beers, getting a beer belly, and watching the Games all weekend long. While she just wanted to spend sometime bike riding in the park or kayaking, ....EVEN if it's a CASUAL activity, she was okay with it. But, nope, she just happened to find men around her age to be rather sedentary in lifestyle. Even if I wasn't all that into fitness as much as she was, if I had a hot girlfriend, at that age, that looked like her, I'd be out with her rather frequently. (let her ride in front of me, so I can check out her butt, lol) I recall this one time, I was watching some kind of Kareoki thing at a bar, wasn't a large bar, but the bar owner was a man, probably mid 50's....and then you saw his wife, and you were like 'WTF is SHE doing with him?" Though they looked to be around the same age bracket, but she was wearing this tight fitting red dress that turned heads, but he was some short, aging man, hair all messed up....run a comb through your hair for your wife at least! LOL I actually enjoy reading some of his posts. he's very perceptive. --------------------------------------------------------------------- there was an article I read saying that woman are getting more beautiful and men are not. basically they have a lot more cosmetics more beautifying products for them. bad for woman, and good for the men. we get prettier woman to choose from.

xxoo Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 I know some fit men over 50. My dad was still bike commuting to work at that age, so that's my norm. But I guess most of the fit older men I know are married....

But I guess most of the fit older men I know are married.... its ridiculous to think there arent fit older men. but not many. but im talking about fit, not average body. many on OLD are married though just looking for a good time.

There's a reason she's on POF and nobody in real life will touch her with a 10' pole.
