JS17 Posted September 22, 2005 Posted September 22, 2005 When you're hitting on someone, what is it about them that makes you guess their age? I seem to be seeing more and more discrepancies in this arena.
alphamale Posted September 22, 2005 Posted September 22, 2005 When you're hitting on someone, what is it about them that makes you guess their age?. well JS17...if you're hitting on them we assume you're single, correct? you are thinking of them as potential mate material and want to figure out if they are in your acceptable age range. Nowadays, with all the cosmetic surgery and whatnot you could potentially be hitting on a 82 yr old who looks like a 35 yr old does that make sense JS17?
Craig Posted September 22, 2005 Posted September 22, 2005 Hands. I can guess any womans age to within a couple of years just by looking at her hands.
Woggle Posted September 22, 2005 Posted September 22, 2005 It is hard to guess age. My jaw hit the floor when I first found out my GF was 41. I thought she was in her early 30s. She could even pass for late 20s.

I seem to be seeing more and more discrepancies in this arena. when i am hitting on a female age really hasn't crossed my mind, if i am attracted then off i go.........maybe that is why i am always dating older women:confused:

Art_Critic Posted September 22, 2005 Posted September 22, 2005 She could even pass for late 20s. Maybe for a blind man
Woggle Posted September 22, 2005 Posted September 22, 2005 Maybe for a blind man You have not seen a picture of her. She is stunning.
Author JS17 Posted September 22, 2005 Author Posted September 22, 2005 I posed this question because I always seem to get hit on by much younger guys and it's frustrating. I'm not opposed to dating younger men but at my age when you go too young there is a maturity issue. I look young for my age and I frequently get hit on by post college students. It was fine when I was 23, 24, 25 then at 26,27 and now 28 it's just getting frustrating. I need a more mature man. What can I do to start attracting men closer to my age? Disclaimer: I can't be held responsible for what I'll say to anyone who tells me that I'll be happy one day that I look young for my age.
alphamale Posted September 22, 2005 Posted September 22, 2005 You have not seen a picture of her. She is stunning. hey man, this thread isn't about your g/f
Art_Critic Posted September 22, 2005 Posted September 22, 2005 Disclaimer: I can't be held responsible for what I'll say to anyone who tells me that I'll be happy one day that I look young for my age. Okay.. I won't go there.. Most women in their 30's get hit on by men in their 40's and 50's but most women in their 20's get hit on by men in their 20's The older you get the curve will come your way.. as far as doing something now..Maybe you dress too young for your age ??? even you hairstyle might to young for you ..
NTB Posted September 22, 2005 Posted September 22, 2005 What can I do to start attracting men closer to my age? maybe the places you are going are visited more by younger people than older

So you're saying I should stop wearing my Care Bears t-shirt out to the bars? I'm a pretty casual person and I love my jeans. I don't want to go out in a suit or anything on the weekends, it's bad enough I have to wear them during the week. Who do the 30's men hit on....ya left them out and my target demographic is early 30s. (As weird as that sounded)
Author JS17 Posted September 22, 2005 Author Posted September 22, 2005 maybe the places you are going are visited more by younger people than older That may be a valid point but I don't want to go to places that I don't like just to meet older men. I have a feeling some of this may have to do with the fact that I live in a big city.
alphamale Posted September 22, 2005 Posted September 22, 2005 Who do the 30's men hit on.... No one JS17, most of them are married and starting families. You'll find there is a huge shortage of singles in the 30 to 40 age range of both sexes. There are many singles in the early to mid 20s and many singles in the 45+ age brackets.
NTB Posted September 22, 2005 Posted September 22, 2005 big city got nothing to do with it. i think it just depneds where you hang, that is what i think anyway. i live in a big city and i pretty much have it down that depending where i go i know where i will meet young girls or older women or get the ones who will sleep with me on the first night just gotta know where to go.

NTB Posted September 22, 2005 Posted September 22, 2005 shortage of singles in the 30 to 40 age range of both sexes. this is true but man women in there 30's are so freaking sexual.......i've dated a couple

So do you think you could give me a hint as to where these ellusive men hang out?
Art_Critic Posted September 22, 2005 Posted September 22, 2005 Who do the 30's men hit on....ya left them out and my target demographic is early 30s. (As weird as that sounded) when I was in my 30's I was hitting on women about 5 years older than me.. That changed when I pushed ny 40's.. My ex wife was almost 4 years older than me and I was married in my early 30's so to answer your question it has alway's been my experience that men in their 30's hit on women drifting towards their 40's
Woggle Posted September 22, 2005 Posted September 22, 2005 I can set you up. I hang out with a crowd older than I am and I know some good single men in their early 30s.
Author JS17 Posted September 22, 2005 Author Posted September 22, 2005 so basically what you're saying Art is that I'm screwed. I'm so glad I asked these questions.
Art_Critic Posted September 22, 2005 Posted September 22, 2005 so basically what you're saying Art is that I'm screwed. I'm so glad I asked these questions. No.. You haven't been screwed yet that is why you are asking the questions so you can get screwed Seriously I would try a slightly older style of dress .. That should open the eyes of the older crowd
NTB Posted September 22, 2005 Posted September 22, 2005 so basically what you're saying Art is that I'm screwed. I'm so glad I asked these questions. your not screwed unless you wanna get "screwed" but that's a different story....just have to try different things maybe go to a dfferent club/bar that you might like but haven't gone to. if you keep going to the same place week after week then it is the same bunch week after week.
Author JS17 Posted September 22, 2005 Author Posted September 22, 2005 Just thought I'd post this conversation that I had with a friend....thought it fit in nicely here. She (D) met a guy who wouldn't tell her how old he was, she's 24: D: {NEW GUY} is 40 JS: nice. he could be your sugar daddy. D: Yeah except he still has roommates..hmmm JS: struggling artist / bartender, ok so maybe not marriage material but have fun D: yeah whatever, new york is full of dudes who cant even commit at forty. By the time they want to commit ill be wrinkly and gross. I feel like ny dudes love young chics, but what happens when we get old?!! s*** dude JS: Seriously D, when we get old, they'll move onto younger girls. They're noncommittal for a reason. I think being in a city environment breeds this kind of behavior. I honestly don't think that the majority of men living in the city over a certain age will ever commit. I think the younger ones just won't commit while they're young. We gotta get out of this city!!!!! D: or just become old spinsters and chase after young guys. This of course means we have to have lots of money and be sugar mommas to support our habit
