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:takedat:.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.

OP has a 12 year old daughter(I saw his post in another thread). I won't speak for him but I don't know if he's as opposed to women with kids, as much as he is women with too many kids, baggage, and drama, and that don't add value to his life.

But, he's made it clear he only wants a woman that's within 5 years of his age range. And I can understand why... I do think especially at that age, theres a noticeable difference in life stages between where he's at and an early thirty something woman. Just thinking of myself compared to the people I know in that age range. But you never know...

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.


You the one that's single at 40 years old, don't get mad at me big dog. :yeshrug:You complaining about your selection of women or being single the rest of you life.

Either accept that women near you age 'may' not be perfect or be continue to be single:yeshrug:

Edit: 40 years old and putting dudes on ignore. Sad. And I wasn't even on that.

I understand the age range thing. If he means that both ways, as in 5 years younger and maybe 5 years older then that's a ten year age range of women and that's pretty big and he can definitely find what he's looking for.:ehh:

I think the 12 yr old has something to do with his preference too. They're both about to enter into new chapters in their lives and he might see the finish line in terms of raising kids and doesn't wanna start from scratch with someone with younger kids.:manny:

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.
Show me one time in post that I mentioned sex, you ignorant, illiterate fukk :stopitslime: Ive had some of the most intimate moments with women in my bed talking about life while blowing tree and listening to neo-soul without ever taking my dikk out. You simple minded nikkas equate intimacy with sex. Get the fukk outta my thread. Go troll somewhere else. Ignore fakkit. Argue with yourself like the other ignorant, miserable b*stards in this thread that I put on ignore. Now. Talk to yourself :umad:

...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 :flabbynsick::to:

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:obama:

Fellow old heads :flabbynsick: 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?:ohhh:
my cousin used that opportunity to travel do different things, learn new language etc... now he is dating online more. on a side note perhaps you can try meeting a sista internationally bring home a future wifey from overseas.

good luck bro no matter what, stick to your standards and avoid hood rats

You got ten more years before you reach middle age. Enjoy pure adulthood while you can. 50 will be here in a minute.:francis:

I just realized you also from LA county

So I truly understand first hand what u going through

A lot of the sisters 35 and up AND IF U LOOKING FOR SISTERS IN THE LA AREA come from dating ex gang members and a lot got kids who daddy was/is gang members or heavy are into white men, so it’s truly going to be hard to find one..,

Almost every woman over 35 you going to encounter has baggage because those same women was like men going through different relationships when they was younger hoping rollo or Darnell was going to be the one, but as usual in the black community them broads was just quick nuts and nothing more to dudes and 70% was left with kids..

The women in LA regardless of color and under 35 still trying to get capture by some celebrity nikka

You captured the ESSENCE of dating in L.A. in 2019. These women out here will ruin and make your life a living hell if you allow them to. And they're all inflicted with these princess complexes. Just pure delusion of grandeur.
