Need a woman's advice

[whatudonthave]

I was married for 23 years and am divorced and single now for two years. What are women looking for in a 49 yro single man these days. It took me until now to be mentally prepared to even stat looking for a new mate.

Honesty, communication, a sense of humor, and little to no baggage.

Ditto to what Guttergoddess said. Plus when speaking to a special someone treat her like she is the only person in the world (even if it is just for a short time of talking).

A man not afraid to be romantic, someone who'll hold you when you've had a bad day, has eyes for you only no matter what pretty young thing might come sashaying by, doesn't role his eyes when you talk about the virtues of one power drill over another (hey...power tools come second only to shoes in my mind)...but most of all....loves you for all your quirks, scars, faults because they are what makes you...well.....you. Oh...and it is nice if he would take the garbage out once in awhile too.

thanks to all

I have done everything right, but find the right woman i quess

so where do u live? curious.

and i am still looking for a guy w/all the right attributes. they are so few and far between. but honesty is so much a huge part of it all. being romantic can win a girl, but if the honesty is not there, then it's all shot to hell. trust is another huge thing.

looks are a plus, but not always a must. i personally look at all people from the inside out. maybe that's my mistake though? but i have always believed in beauty lies within.

be considerate, caring, loving when the right time calls for it. accept everything about her, or it won't work.

I am easy on the eyes as well as educated.

I think there is only one at the right time and place. I very much agree with your idea of how to treat that special person.

 

[teddys_whore]

I agree

Hey, I'm not the only do-it-yourself girl out there! I agree whole heartedly. Let me add that, to me, appearance isn't always a big thing, either. Don't be afraid to be sensitive. Don't be afraid to express an opinion and discuss things.

Money isn't that important to many of us. I don't care how much you have, as long as you're responsible with it. I'm not impressed by people who live beyond their means, having a million dollar lifestyle bankrolled by a million maxed out credit cards.

I like a man (when I'm in the mood for a man) who's confident, intelligent, not too cock-centered. One who knows that there's more to making love than poking it in and spitting. A guy who gets just as much value from an afternoon laying in bed watching Buffy re-runs as he does from an afternoon swinging upside down from the chandeliers with a lover. One who's sexually adventurous without endangering any of our lives. One who understands that "polyamorous" doesn't mean "anyone's meat".

One who can talk about music, who's car is NOT an extension of his personality, who likes to dance and go for walks and have wild sex and marathon snuggle sessions.

I haven't found one of those yet, but I've got a good fuckbuddy who fills in most of that criteria.

You pretty much just described my guy to a tee....along with knowing that I am the center of the universe.
