yes you are and unless you clean up your act and appearances you will remain that way. after skeletons in the closet I thought you might actually have something to offer someone. But now I sincerely doubt it

Up until I reached 50, I never had to choose between being physically attracted to a man OR being psychologically attracted to him.
Was there a law passed recently that states that now that I'm 50+, I must choose between one or the other? If there HAS been an edict issued that at 50+ I can only have one OR the other, then I am completely and absolutely A-OK with remaining single 'til the day I die. |

After reading the responses I'm wondering if we are making a virtue of necessity at "50 and over," when most of our vanity is subdued and we are obliged to look for inner values more than ever. Preferring integrity to looks requires maturity, which few have in their vivacious youth. With the exceptions of a few genuine expressions in this forum, the views of "50 and below" on the topic might be more valuable.

I wish I could say that looks weren't a big deal to me...but that would be a lie...After dating enough men that I was not "physically " attracted to...still didn't work out...so now I'm an all or nothing lady...my bad...but I figure if it doesn't work out at least I enjoyed the view for a bit..lol

Am I the only one who is no longer so interested in looks...? In my oldish age (53) i find that a kind heart who can make me smile is first and formost (and mental stability of course!). A genuine kind old soul is so much more valuable then a large bank account. This I agree with. I have dated men who lacked in the looks department but had great integrity. Personally; I won't date a good looking guy because they usually lack personality. |

As many women might consider me a double-bagger, they would be looking at me for my integrity and sexual abilities. What integrity? |

Real integrity is hard to find these days. A lot of people who think they have it need to get out their dictionaries. Thank you mowtown I was thinking the exact same thing actually. yup I'm with motown on that too...I have seen people who claim to value integrity do some questionable things....we need to think about what it actually, really means to value these things. and how we need to modify behaviors to stay in line with those values. |

First of all your not old, secondly, there are plenty of men in that age bracket who are good looking (a perk) and have integrity. As they have established themselves in life and core values you'll find one |
