Violeta - that's incredibly depressing to read as a physically flawed single woman of 37. Not saying I disagree with you, cause I don't, but it's incredibly hard to see ones own thoughts echoed by another in black and white.

Not saying I disagree with you, cause I don't, but it's incredibly hard to see ones own thoughts echoed by another in black and white. Sorry, didn't mean to depress you. I just am relating to what I hear and read, and mostly what I observe in a big city where there's plenty of women of all ages. But 37 is not old, and if it's any comfort to you, even the most beautiful women are not as stunning when they get older. Ever heard the saying that age is the greatest equalizer? I think some women who have taken great care of their skin, stayed out of sun.AND have good genes can look very young for their age, and even those without the best genes can still look youthful in their late 30s+, if they use good skincare, maybe get fillers, botox, etc. But what I was mostly referring to is what most - men- find attractive about women, and that seems to be youth. I have seen even average looking women get tons of attention just cause they are very 'young' looking. On the other hand, there are plenty of men who Don't want to date a very young woman and are attracted to other qualities in women. If dating is a priority, you can find men who don't place such emphasis on looks, depends where you go, what interests, groups, you socialize with, etc. I know women over 50 who do look their age, but are active, involved in hobbies where they have attracted men, and are happy even if they don't look perfect.

Hey violeta,
Like I say, I completely hear where your coming from.
As a single woman it's easy enough to hook up/date, especially younger men - most recent one was 10 years my junior (my body is MUCH better than my face which helps a hell of a lot I think, lol) but a hook up is only a hook up, right?
I'm considering embarking on maxfax which is basically akin to writing off two years of my life, so forgive my thinking for being a little 'off' at the minute and coming across as oversensitive.
How old are you if you don't mind me asking?
Edit; Forgot to say that I used to believe in age being the big equaliser, made me feel better ... until I realised that it really isn't the case - good looking people by definition have great bone structure. People with great bone structure, age better.
Boo hoo, they always do bloody win!

How old are you if you don't mind me asking? Well you are already ahead of tons of women, who don't have such a great body. I'm 35, so your age group. I must say that I think in Europe, people don't seem as youth obsessed. I'm not sure how it is where you are in the UK, but I have travelled to France, Italy, Spain, etc. and notice men whistle at women of any age, if she's attractive, and I see women who definitely look over a 'certain age' and have no trouble attracting men. In the U.S. this can happen too of course, but in a place like NYC, there are so many young pretty girls, that it can be a tough place to be single and getting older. Although there are couples of all ages, and social activities for all types, and age groups. But as a whole, I tend to think in metro areas in the U.S., the dating scene is competitive.

I'm going to have a real bitter rant now and it's all your fault, violeta, lol!
The UK isn't really representative of Europe - it's a tacky hell hole that worships at the alter of page 3 (the tabloids have naked young girls on page 3 of their papers), 'girl next door' is the epitome of desirability, certainly in the provinces - young plainly pretty with big tits. London is a different story, thankfully.
Somewhere like NYC is surely less rigid in the mediocrity of what it finds attractive?
Not everyone expects to date a fashion model...do they???

I know I'm a bit late on this, but I had to comment. Those people in the video are average at best. Far, far more attractive people occupy and have posted their photos on these boards. I pity those people in the video for their delusion.
