MiddleAgedandLoaded Posted January 23, 2006 Posted January 23, 2006 Having been divorced a couple of years ago, and being a middle-aged male, I have been dating recently. Also by some strange turn in the universe, after getting divorced, my income went from great to phenomenal due to cyclical changes in my business (every ten years or so). After NEVER having been in love with someone that also loved me, I now hope to find that. In addition however, I hope to find that with a beautiful woman. I have been dating women in their twenties and thirties. I believe alot of people believe that I am simply looking for beautiful bimbos, but that is not the case at all. Similarly, I believe many look on the women that I date as gold-diggers, who are out for nothing but a life of comfort. My point is that virtually ALL people consider such things as the looks of a potential mate, and the income of a potential mate. More so than not, I believe women consider the earning potential of a husband, and men look at the attractiveness of a woman as important factors in selecting a mate. Being middle-aged male, perhaps a woman is simply putting more emphasis on the fact that my earning power is very large. That is not to say they do not consider my personality, physical shape, humor, etc. Likewise, since I do earn a very large income, I am able to date and attract younger women than I could if I worked at the local pizza shop. Still I certainly will not marry, or even date a woman that I believe is simply interested in me for my income. Bottom-line is that people irregardless of age do consider earning potential and attractiveness of a potential partner, and those that snub their noses at me, or the women that I go out with are being hypocritical.
