I am just going by my own experiences and boy were these men jaded. They literally hated women and I had the misfortune of going on a date with them. 
I hear ya there.. seems many people can't let go of the past and remember.. not EVERYone is like their last bad experience.. oye.. for some reason.. I keep getting the kind that are looking for a trophy.. last guy drove a hummer, talk about your insecurities  .. anywho.. he calls one Saturday just after the noon hour asking if we could meet (ends up he was heading out of town the next day and wouldn't be back til the following Sunday), it was our first face to face.. I knew this guy and I wouldn't connect more than that because of his (lets say) odd behaviour.. so here I stood, wearing rubber boots and covered in mud head to toe just about (working outside in the rain) and figured "this is ONE way to get this over with" so agreed to a short meet.. I did warn him I didn't have time to shower and kinda gave him an idea what to expect, but still he said okay.. 30 mins later I'm sitting across the table from him at Tim's watching him squirm and keeping his distance (like I had leprosy or something) till I get a call from my youngest (he looked relieved) and politely told him I had to get back to the house.. never heard from him again.. nor did I expect to..  
Guess you dodged a bullet with that one. Sounds like a bit of a loser to me. When I don't get the woman hater; I get the type that brags about his material things; like this is supposed to impress me. It does the opposite as I don't think much of men like that. |

I think it's hard to find love because there are just not enough eligable men and by that i mean men who look after their appearance rather than let themselves go. I'm not saying that that applies to every older man but a vast majority. Most older women still care about the way they look, but unfortunatly most men over 50 cetainly dont. It's a case of this 'this is what you get take it or leave it' and i certainly would rather leave it.

Tamy,
As a 57 year Old man, you don't know how much I appreciated what you have said ... there are certainly many women who for some reason are totally untrustworthy of men. We are all human and have failures but why take that forward rather than learning from it. Thanks soooo much for your comments! Some of us are genuine and nice guys. Being snubbbed by women seems to be what mean are now getting used to. Just give us a chance please. Don |

If we haven't done that our whole life, why start now? Seems like clean and groomed isn't enough. |

It's a case of this 'this is what you get take it or leave it' and i certainly would rather leave it. I can't say that has been my problem with men. I have certainly met a lot of guys that have the beer belly problem but I still went out with them. Its more the other way with me that even though I do take care of appearance; it never seems to be enough. Guys are visual and if you have a couple of pounds; or a wrinkle, or a bit of grey hair; they won't give me the time of day. Of course its not all the guys; but with me personally; its 99.9% that men don't like how I look. So, what it comes down to is why even bother to try and date if you just don't measure up looks wise? |

I wouldn't even try and attract the sort of older man who takes no pride in their appearance. They seem to think that wearing some tatty old jumper, hideous glasses and a comb over will be enough to get a woman. Why would any self respecting woman want to date a man like that. If you cant find someone to enhance your life and be the man you want it's better to be single. I will never settle for something i'm not happy with.

I believe that older women/men have fewer opportunities to meet partners in their age group. And many of us are still thinking with younger brains and looking for a 60 year old that looks 40. We look different than we did in our youth and we need to accept that and redefine our definitions of attractiveness. They still have to take pride in their appearance though. Also as stated earlier, you've got to drop your baggage and not condemn new people with old wounds.

Ah; I see what you are getting at; its more how they present themselves rather than how they naturally look. |

Guess you dodged a bullet with that one. Sounds like a bit of a loser to me. When I don't get the woman hater; I get the type that brags about his material things; like this is supposed to impress me. It does the opposite as I don't think much of men like that. that was the general thinking.. it wasn't going to go anywhere cuz he kept talking to 'impress'.. and like you.. I don't find that appealing..  anyone taking notes out there????????

Im thinking some guys get in a rut and forget about grooming and first impressions shouldnt be concrete to women Guys and gals are different and women wash cloths that arent even close to dirty by our standards also taking more than 1 shower a day seems ridiculous to most guys
I know im good to go when i get up and im gonna get dirty during the day working so why would i need to have a shower and put on my clean cloths to go out and get dirty ? Thats like wiping before you poop it makes no sense to guys Having a shower and putting on clean cloths before a date makes sense though |
