If she was realistic, she shouldn't be competing.
Yea, of course, the 25 to 40 year old rich nikka wants a bad bish in her 20s/early 30s.
But those nikkas that are close to 50 or over 50 would consider dating Melyssa Ford.
I say "consider" because she still has a history as a thot but, she has a much better shot with those dudes than with the younger ones.

The game changes for everyone.
I’m younger than her and I wouldn’t be thinking about the same men that a 25YO might be dating lol
This is the issue with only getting by on your looks.
I know Black women who are older than her who found love/marriage with accomplished Black men AFTER 45.
Those women aren’t birds, tho.
They are accomplished and moving in circles where you meet brehs with advanced degrees, successful businesses, etc. Yes, of course they are fit and attractive, but their own intelligence and status has them moving in circles where they are meeting and locking down successful brehs.
If she had moved away from modeling she’d have a better image.
