Is It Worth It To Still Try To Date/Find Love After 40?

[Rekkapryde]

...or should you just call it a life and be single for the duration of your life? I'm 2 months away from the big Four-Oh

And all 40 year old women, or women 35 and up to be general, just seem to have mad kids, mad attitude, and mad baggage. When I start talking to them and start dealing with their BS, I immediately long for, and go back to, the peace and simplicity of my solitude and bachelor's life

Fellow old heads speak on it. Have you found success in the dating game as you enter middle age, or have you reveled in your singlehood and found other things besides women to occupy your time? Youngstas chime in. Is there a certain cutoff point for you to stop pursuing love, or will you search until the end of your days?

Go overseas and get you a foreign thing.

This is pure silliness


Relatability like what? Why is age a factor when it comes to knowing things? If you're over the age of 25 you should be able to converse with most adults with most topics unless they happen to be 70+ years old. Most people talk about the same things. I've spoken with 50+ year olds and they all talk about the same things

I mean what exactly are you gonna be talking about? Think about that question and realize how silly you sound and how you're holding yourself back.

nikka it's a PERSONAL PREFERENCE. I don't wanna talk to women 10 years younger than me and I have experience that makes me feel this way. I didn't pull the feeling out of my ass. It's for good reason. And people don't talk about the same shyt. Maybe the people YOU know. I know your type. You're the type of ignorant b*stard who can't understand that people have their own preferences and that everyone doesn't like the same things. You don't know how to just agree to disagree and move along. You're like a Trump supporter. You're just gonna keep arguing and arguing a moot point and you can't understand reason or logic. So I'm gonna just place you on ignore now. Argue with yourself.

I'm only 25 but there's no way the game is over at 40. For men and women. If that's what you want, you can definitely have it. Will she have baggage or kids? Most likely. But honestly those things are stuff you focus on when you're single. If you genuinely love her, you won't mind those things.

At that stage in your life, it really is worthwhile to try and date or find a lover that matches your maturity and your point in life.

Once you've reached that point, your healthy, happiness, and stability are fully under your control, and your future should be fully in your hands.

Dating still can be as fun and as exciting as it was in your youth (minus a lot of the fukkery, if there's still that level of nonsense going on with somebody in their late-30s/early-40s: they're going to be your absolute ruin), you just have to put in the effort on your terms.

There will also be quite a bit of reinventing at that stage: there will be reformed hoes (both literally and perjoratively), a lot of women trying to have "fun" after their kids are adults, a lot of people trying to hide a lifetime of failures, etc. but you can avoid all of that by being perceptive and moving at a comfortable pace.

It gets even easier if you're in good shape, still well-dressed and well-groomed, are comfortable with yourself, and are willing to use the lifetime of game you've developed.

Do you dudes struggle with reading comprehension or are you just being purposefully obtuse? The issue is not finding someone. I can make some calls and return some texts that I’ve been ignoring and literally have a new woman in my bed everyday this week without much effort. I’m speaking on finding a QUALITY woman who I can stand being around more than 2 hours at a time because she has more to bring to the table than a bad attitude and some hoe babble that I’ve heard a million times before The issue is a GOOD woman. Not just have any old random bytch there to fill the space because I’m bored and/or lonely....

SPEAKING ABOUT COMPREHENSION WHILE COMPLETELY NOT COMPREHENDING.

ENJOYING YOUR TIME WITH DOES NOT MEAN SEX. ANYBODY WITH $100 CAN FIND SOMEONE TO FILL A BED. IF THAT'S WHAT IT MEANS TO YOU, THAT'S YOUR FIRST PROBLEM.

Sheeeeiit

Don’t let these boys lie to you

Women love distinguished older men

If you’re in shape you will still eat well

Especially if your paper is right

Look at all the sex symbols

Young girls are still lusting after Edris - DeCaprio etc

Even on a local level I’m sure you’ve seen older brehs eat

Truth be told you may take the girls of the same ones talking shyt on these boards



(Just in case)

40s is young

A lot of u dudes are depressing..

Live your life and don’t worried about what people online think...

 

[BlaqkSpliffin]

If I was 40 I'd be tryna scoop a fine baddie in her early 30's with either no kids or 1 kid. That prime 35 age is dope too.At that point they out they hoe phase and maybe outta they "I'm tryna have kids" phase so there's not as much pressure.

And it's worth it if you still want that type of connection and relationship. If you're over that shyt then by all means enjoy your life and just have a roster of women. But if you still want the other thing and your a stable breh who's taken good care of himself you'll be fine.
