is Water Wet?

So she thinks she looks just as good as she did several years ago, and that years of therapy and other types of self-improvement have actually made her more appealing to men.

I'll paraphrase Marsellus from Pulp Fiction here:

"You see, this dating site is filled to the brim with unrealistic women. Women who thought their ass would age like wine. If you mean it turns to vinegar, it does. If you mean it gets better with age, it don't."

And she's filtering men by a lot more than their age. She's filtering only for elite men, although she doesn't realise it, since her perception of what an average man is completely unrealistic.

The fact she thinks she looks just as good as she did seven or eight years ago is hilarious. She probably thought the same back when she was thirty-six too! 😂

All of the other things she mentioned e.g travelling, career etc are worthless to men.

Nothing we haven't seen here before!

I wanna know how these women she speaks of made the brain calculation to tell her date younger. Fascinating.

Even if you take her words at face value, the bit about "I look just as good at 42 as I did at 36" gives the entire game away. A younger woman will (or can, at least) continue to look good for many years more into the future; an older woman can't.

Why would a man choose a good-looking 42 year old when having access to her surely means he also has access to good-looking 36 year olds, who have 6 extra years of good looks in their futures (and 6 less years in their pasts of therapists encouraging their narcissism)?

Most HVM 50+ will, on OLD, set the women age filters to 30. Lots of women suddenly see their matches dry up. Some don’t even understand the reason, some understand and fraud “ohh I don’t know why it says 29 since i am 45, do not know how to change that, he he he”

Her career is neutral at basic, but we knew most of the time it's negative, but I don't get how women believe that them being well travelled is a plus.

Guys in the age range she is looking for got their experience with women like her and nopes out. Guys younger than her that she wants has otheroptions and wont look at her. Either way she is at an age where getting pregnant is starting to get unlikely. Her age will reflect this no matter how good she looks, so she is a waste of time, regardless, to most guys who wants a normal , long term relationship.

lurkerhasarisen · 2023-12-10T04:08:00+00:00

Why did her matches dry up for men in the 35-50 range? Simple: her age now starts with a "4" rather than a "3." Notice that the time she became invisible on OLD coincided precisely with her 40th birthday.

She needs to use "50" as the bottom of her age range rather than the top. Men her age who would hit her up won't meet her unrealistic standards, and men younger than her will only bang her if she can pull off the MILF thing.

I have a great career, travel often, have great friendships and fun hobbies

No man cares about those things, and can be red flags in some instances.

Here's what matters:

Do you take care of your appearance?
Are you pleasant to be around?
Are you not a slut?

Everything else is just static.

The entire post shows a baffling lack of awareness. OF COURSE you're going to be less desirable at 42. I find it hard to believe that any woman, no matter how feminist-indoctrinated, truly thinks they will be as attractive as they were in their 20s when they hit middle age.

Champter24 · 2023-12-10T14:19:24+00:00

here is a thing, for men in her age only reason to get married is to have kids and start a family

"travel often" and "start a family" are two completely opposite things.

SnakeEyeskid · 2023-12-10T16:40:03+00:00

She compares herself at 42 to herself at 36. Which is completely irrelevant since she wants top tier men, so she is competing with women in their early 20s.

West_Instruction8770 · 2023-12-10T19:16:42+00:00

She should try the method of the 164 date lady, she managed to find a husband after 164 first dates, only took her a year

flexible-photon · 2023-12-10T23:53:02+00:00

I'm sure she's swiping left on hundreds of guys who would be perfectly adequate for her but don't meet her criteria.

InevitableOwl1 · 2023-12-11T15:19:42+00:00

There is a reason women lie about their age so often on apps to get them below the 40 number. Fertility is one

It’s like that recent viral video of the “38 year old” who was rejected by a matchmaker for being too demanding. I know women in their 30s and 40s and that one was a hard 38 if she was really 38.

Handsome_Goose · 2023-12-11T02:51:11+00:00

What I'm curious about these supposedly well-off women with great careers - do they not see the men that surround them? Do they not see the women those men have? Does all of it not get the old nogging jogging?

Like, surely there were some corporate getaways/picnics/whatever where she'd see what she's competing with.

Either she's blind or in complete denial.

TwizzlersSourz · 2023-12-11T22:34:35+00:00

None of those listed qualities mean anything to men.

I can't date your job, your degree, your prior travels, etc. If I want a family, you are too old.

New_Wrangler3335 · 2023-12-12T20:56:57+00:00

I have preferences! I know my worth

Men have preferences too? About my age!? How bigoted!

Men know their worth too sis

Women: he needs to be tall, handsome, big dick, good genes

Men: she needs to be able to make babies
