Way to call that one out. Sorry, but it's women like 40-something cougar that MAKE men want to date younger. Being 40-ish and acting bitter and scorned gives us all a bad rep and ruins it for those of us who are "aging gracefully" and "are happy and grateful" for the good in our lives. <abbr><em><abbr><em>MindyMom´s last blog post..<a href="http://singlemommindy.blogspot.com/2008/12/there-are-crumbs-in-my-bed.html" rel="nofollow">There are Crumbs in My Bed</a></em></abbr></abbr></em> DM, you rock!

I'm the blog owner and I'm in my 40s, but the author of this post is younger (20s or 30s, I forget) Why the anger, calling men "boys", and "baldie", and "porky"? Name calling like that makes me think that maybe you're the one who needs to grow up. Perhaps your comment is just you projecting. Maybe you're the one being rejected while looking for the weekly trophy boy. After all, it seems a real women in her 40s wouldn't be wasting her time with any service where she receives emails from such sketchy and less-than-ideal men. And she wouldn't be trying to convince the world she looks 30. What's with that? I have no time for haters or name callers. I prefer a woman who ages gracefully, and is happy and grateful for all the good in her life. Dear 40-something Cougar Looking 30 – not sure who your comment was addressed to.

Women are complicated beings,not TROPHIES, boys. You seem to be one of those 40 something guys looking for the 18-24, or 18 to 27 age group that DESERVE to have a good relationship. You should see some of the "matches" I get by email. Guys posing in dark glasses, caps or hoodies who are 43 but don't want anyone over 27. LOL. I love the winners posing in their Sunday best (Harley Davidson t-shirt). Oh, yeah,that will attract the ladies. Women with any intelligence, class or character will not go to some guy's house for a bud and a hot tub. LOL Time to grow up, boys, and get over yourselves. No wonder why you can't get classy women. Key word there: WOMEN. P.S. Sorry your relationships with Mommy/Wifie/Girlfriend of the Week didn't pan out. Maybe it's time for some serious self-reflection. Oh, give me a break.

I don't expect a guy in this place in life to be a pretty boy. Actually what is attractive to me is the way older guys fill out and look like MEN---in the face, body, etc. A good haircut never hurts however! Single Dad--where's your e-mail address?

I prefer spending my money on shoes and nicer shirts as opposed to pricey jeans. Try to hard and you'll send a totally different message and yes, confidence is king. One caveat to all. Be careful with Myspace, etc. They are so public and you have no idea what your "friends" might be saying about you in places you have no control. Not for the faint of heart. (I date women my own age, 38, though so what do I know) Nice article. I prefer spending my money on shoes and nicer shirts as opposed to pricey jeans.
