The issue is ALWAYS "the right one[s]".

I was married for a long time (15 years---I look a lot younger than I am) and when I got back out there (here?), I found that men my age (35-45) were looking at 20-somethings. It is/was disturbing and frustrating.

It seems that men and women have different prescribed rules---it's perfectly fine for men to want "hot" young women but women (when they are older) are supposed to accept whatever they can get as long as he's a "nice guy". I get crap from folks because I look at a man's physical looks as well as his personality; I hear all the time, "who cares what he looks like if he's a nice guy."

The "nice guys/girls" Don't have the good pick-up lines!

Addendum:
maybe it's wrong and shallow to be attracted to the "bad-boy" good looks, but the way I figure, I'm almost middle-aged and I try to maintain my health and fitness, so why shouldn't I expect the same in a man (older man. I'm not into the 20-somethings)?

Gustava,

I can understand that my EX girlfriend was 48 notice I am 40 so that is not always the case. I do not look like a nice guy but am to a fault. The post was a guy saying women all are interested in tattooed bad boy types insinuating because I have tatts Harleys 4x4 trucks and so fourth that is what women see and most do. However, there are those few that see me for me. And that is what I want out of life yes my choice to have the tatts, the Harleys my passion, the trucks well Hey I'm a cowboy we love them trucks, but I am also intelligent. I am certified to repair any brand motorcycle, snow mobile, jet ski, Develop Websites, Train Technical Support Engineers, I developed the SEO ( Search Engine Optimization) Standards and procedures at my last job were I was employed for 10 years before resigning to move to take care of my father. Therefore, even though the wrapper says badd boy incorporated what is under the wrapper says I want to be loved for me.

forgot to mention I spent my day working for free at an animal rescue running power to kennels for the winter so all the doggies will be warm. I did not have to be there no court order no profit for me I did it to do it. My reward seeing the look in the doggies eyes has I talked to them and patted there heads will running conduit and wire. I am going back tomorrow on my time to finish the job. Will be 27 here on Friday so at least I will know they are warm.

I'm sorry for going off on a tangent----frustration, I guess.

I agree with you. As I posted before, looking like a "bad-boy" and being a nice guy are not mutually exclusive. The most incredibly nice, good, noble man I've ever met, as well as dated, looks like the baddest of the bad boys.

My only advice for you is not to compromise your ideals. It's easy for a man to screw around but you've got to ask yourself, "what do I want in a woman?" and stick to the answer.

I do not think it was a tangent. I saw it has a great debate, Thank you.

As for the wearing black very cool I wear black allot has Harleys spit oil hides the oil stains, If there were a color darker than black I'd wear it.

Thank you again for the debate

Respect
