And the Wall taketh...

I am also a woman who reads this subreddit after finding a link to it from another discussion board where the demographic skews mostly men (male dominated hobby forum).

I am 42 and have been in a relationship for the past 19 or 20 months with a 45 year old guy who introduced me to the other forum. I was always fascinated with his dating stories and his friends’ experiences and the stories shared on the forum. So this has been my little “fun” read so to speak.

As the other lady said I am not the biggest fan of women. Actually I am not a big fan of anyone who is low quality so men or women can fit that equally.

My bf has always told me I am unlike any woman he knows or dated. Took him a long time to actually trust I was not deceiving him.

I am 42. Never married. No kids. Very analytical and data driven. I tend to be very logical and not emotionally driven (the women in my MBA class once told me they worried I was a “robot person”), have a very successful and lucrative career. Met my guy when he was unemployed after being laid off. He knows sincerely that I do not want one dollar of his money. I slept walk in life focused on family and career for over a decade due to gaining weight and being fat. And then I made it my focus to be happy with myself physically versus thinking any man should be attracted to me if I found myself unattractive. I still have 40-45 lbs to lose. My guy is super supportive and we had frank conversations about my weight loss when we both decided we didn’t want to see anyone else. He was worried that I would be like many other women and stop being serious and just gain back all I lost and then some. He loved seeing that at the time in my fitness pal I had been at this for over 19 months before him and he sees how diligent I am now with diet, tracking and working out. I am not in a rush so I don’t believe in crash diets or the what not since I believe in full life change. We both love being partners to each other and additive to each other’s life. I love his parents (was just texting with his mom earlier) and he is coming over to my family’s later today for a birthday party. We have similar values, upbringing, and goals. My ideal Friday night with him is dinner, walking the dogs and helping him reload some rounds for a rifle match he had this morning (unfortunately I had family obligations so I had to miss out). I have very little tolerance with the deception men and women do to each other in dating. I have been know you give very direct feedback to female friends as well.
