Divorced, late-40s, can't find a man in for anything except a hookup in LA. Who wants to tell her?

Decent post, /u/RedditCanBeDumb, but her town needs to be censored in accordance with rule 6. Please censor every instance of it within the screenshot and omit it from your title.

Nobody is buying what you are selling lady. They are willing to take it out for a test drive but you are not willing to open up the doors and hood.

You think you are selling a classic car. No, just another high mileage junker.

She's so perfect by her own terms that you gotta wonder why she's still single, despite trying every OLD site on the planet. Hmm, what a great mystery.

"I got hundreds of potential matches...."

You, ma'am, are a hopeless case.

1) They always say they look younger than they are once they pass 40.

2) Of course SHE ended her marriage. 99.9% chance the marriage "failed" because he didn't give her the tingies anymore, and she wanted revenge on him for acting like a nice guy and putting up with her nagging, no sex and cheating for years.

3) As usual, she was on every dating site on planet earth. Because she lives in a small town like LA and only gets 1,000,000,000 matches per day on each ap.

4) None of the 20,000,000,000 matches were good enough for her. What a surprise.

5) She left her husband to ride the CC but can't understand why men don't want serious relationships.

6) Yes I do understand that no women are self aware. It still amazes me tho.

"I'm not online for hookups."

If he was hot enough and gave her the tingles, she'd hook up.

So your friends didn’t tell you about this side of OLD when they “advised” you to leave your husband. Lady, you are a late 40s woman looking for what exactly...it sounds like a soul mate of some sort. Your husband was the best you will ever do. They only thing you can secure right now is a hookup. Go back to your husband. You better pray that he takes you back.

Hundreds of potential matches, but only matched with the red pilled Chads who workout, gets nothing in chat other than logistics, meets the guy, doesn't put out, gets ghosted. Repeats it again and again. Meanwhile I'm suicide swiping and get like 2 fat chicks and a tranny that match.

Other than "I'm in my early 40's," the rest of that first sentence in that first paragraph is more than likely not true.

And honestly, most of the men her age whom are divorced are probably paying out the ass in child support and possibly alimony, too. Those men are far less likely to want to commit to another woman after what they've been through!

I bet the two things she won't openly admit are:

Tell anyone WHY she ended her marriage, and
Regret ending it

Because at her age, her chances at finding that "connection with tons of chemistry" dwindled down to zero when she signed those divorce papers that ended her 9-year marriage.

Even at 40 she still hasn't given this a moment's thought from the man's perspective.

an open book

This sounds like code for "unpleasant to be around."

ambitious

Men don't want competition at home.

physical attraction is equally as important as mental attraction

Honey, you're FORTY YEARS old. 6-6-6 men will only notice you as an asexual co-worker. Even betabucks will pass you by for a fresh-off-the-wall 31-year-old.
