The other crazy thing is that dating in mid-life is waaay different than dating as a youngster. I was in my mid forties after my divorce. If you are moderately successful then women don't give a crap about age. Like you gotta worry about checking their ID. I thought "daddy issues" was a joke but it's not. Some of these 18 and 19 years olds have a kink for middle aged dudes. Probably more the fact that you are established and stable. $$
And I'm not dumb enough to fall for that.
After my divorce, I was late 30s, and while this is true I'm not sure it is all that impressive.
18-25 year old women are pretty much still girls. Their peers are young men who haven't developed a career, a network, or wealth. Comparing one's self to that crop, you should absolutely be standing out to women in their 20s from what they are usually around.
And I wouldn't get too comfortable either.
Once an apocalypse happens, the program will change. Your wealth, professional growth, assets, sexual ability...none of that **** will matter anymore in the eyes of women. It'll be all about who can protect them and offer physical security.
So yeah, get ready for apocalyptic dating.
So confused here. So you've given up and just prepping in hopes the apocalypse happens in your lifetime so you're quite the catch then? (Not trying to be a jerk. Just not sure if you're joking or not).
What's confusing? Preparing isn't giving up. I'm not a prepper or anything. And it's not about dating, that was kind of a joke.
But yeah, what people value will change. Your physical fitness and other abilities are going to matter way more than being a finance bro with a cute face. No one is going to give a crap about that kind of stuff which are absolutely qualities people (including women) value now.
