Why You Should Date Women Over 40
Okay, guys. It doesn’t matter if you’re in your 30s, 40s, 50s or older, the first person to catch your eye is probably going to be the 26-year old cocktail waitress with green eyes and perky breasts. She’ll hold your attention for a little while, but men, when you’re ready to settle down and get serious, it’s a woman over-40 who you should be dating. Here are seven reasons why men in their 30s, 40s and 50s and beyond should really be dating a woman over 40.
1. Women over 40 are more of sure of who they are are. In our 20s and 30s, we’re just figuring out who we are, what we like and what we want to be when we grow up. When we’re in our 40s, we have a pretty good sense of self. We’re not looking for a man to save us or to complete us. We’ve got that down. What we’re looking for is a companion who can share the good times and hard times with. Someone we can laugh with and grow with.
2. Women over 40 have their own lives, their own careers, their own friends. If she’s interested, she’ll make room in her life for you, but she won’t dump all her friends and all her activities just to be by your side. And she’s not about to ask you to do the same. She’s happy you have golfing buddies, a job that you love and plans to hike the Himalayas this summer. She wants you to make time for her, but not at the expense of your own happiness.
3. She’s more comfortable with in her body and with sex. That’s right, women in the forties often have less hang-ups about their bodies than those in their 20s. They’ve come to accept their imperfections and are more able to let loose and just enjoy themselves in the bedroom. And she’s more likely to be patient with your flaws or performance issues. Most guys will agree that confidence is way more sexy than insecurity, no matter what her body looks like.
4. Russian women in their forties have been around the block. And I don’t mean in a slutty way, although that may be the case for some women. Mature women have had opportunities to travel, or at least to meet other people who are different from them. They’ve sat through a parent’s illness or nursed a sick child. They know that the world is not going to end if you have to cancel a date or if you don’t get the big promotion at work you’ve been hoping for. They’ve lived through enough that they can sympathize with your struggles too.
5. The issue of whether or not to have children isn’t usually an issue for women over 40. By the age of 40, most women have either already had children, don’t want them or have figured out how to be a single parent on their own.
6. Women over 40 not going to waste their time with someone they’re not compatible with. This is good news for you both. She’s done messing around and waiting for her man to change. She probably knows what she wants in a companion and will keep looking until she finds it. If you fit the bill, you’re in luck. If not, she’ll quickly figure that out and let you go before you become too enmeshed. Women over 40 are more Zen.
7. They’re more mature and they’re not going to freak out over the smallest thing, get into a screaming match with you and make a scene in public. Chances are, she’s had some therapy or has at least spent some time looking at herself, reading self-help books and come to peace with her issues with her childhood. She’s at the age where she realizes life is too short to sweat the small stuff and she’s ready to enjoy what life has to offer. And if you’re lucky, part of that could be with you.
