Flaws are the beauty if u ask me

Just saying.

When I was with an older woman I told her that what I liked about her was that she was a strong woman and I meant it. I even said the sorts of things that are in the OP here to her. The problem though is that only saying nice things about someone is flattery and she kept calling BS on me because we both knew that she wasn't all sweetness and light. It just doesn't give the full picture and it's not much better than just saying that they're pretty. A woman would have to be pretty full of herself to think that a guy that only says nice things about her really knows and understands her.

It's tough if you're a single guy in your forties because most of the good women your age are taken or are "I don't need a man" spinsters. A man that has sworn off women is a rare beast and an oddity but older women that can't be doing with men are ten a penny. They don't need a man and they don't want to be needed.

What's left that an older woman can do that a younger one can't? Well, they can maybe remember where they were when Kennedy was assasinated and be a no nonsense battleaxe with "opinions". They can have an argument with you about literally anything, even if they're completely ignorant about the topic. They have to because they're "strong women". They take the moral high ground by trying to say that brains are sexy, as if anyone under forty is obviously a moron. I've got a degree in philosophy. I've never yet got a woman hot for me by talking about it. It's a turn off. It's worse than politics.

Vividly penned & picturesque.

Thank you.

I don't quite understand what ure saying here adventure
Are u saying youth isn't beauty?
And what do u define as beauty?
And what do u mean by tempered with life?
Or is it simply mean ure looking for a more matured person?

No; a lot of us feel this and not all of us have to be all that old before we grasp the concept.

It isn't necessary that real beauty only comes when youth is tempered by life, actually it is psychological process. Real beauty has nothing to do with materialism, as I think....

Another dead give away is most of them (the men scammers) their wife died. Their raising a child my them self.

Actually I think in our youth we look for the outer beauty more than we do the inner, as we age we begin to realize the outer is going to go at some point in time and well we had better have been working in the inner.
