Something really interesting I have been thinking about. is loneliness because of age. I used to be a totally hot young women. Everyone noticed me, every one wanted to date me. I got so much action when I would walk in to a room. Now at 41 I’m invisible. just another middle age women going shopping. Sometimes men don’t hold doors open for me. Or they say have a good day ma’am. It’s so weird that in my life I have experienced both. I never knew what it was like to not be beautiful. Now wear glasses and look older. I guess it’s over those days of being the prettiest girl in the room. haha Just something I have been thinking of.
This is appears to be an old post, but I think if it’s attention that you want, you will need to apply more effort. It doesn’t come easy with age, so you will probably have to target an unsuspecting person for getting the attention that you seek. You can probably do that by going up to a gentleman and offering a baked good and initiating a conversation.
I’m 49, and for me, getting older comes with a different realization. I’m not as promiscuous as I was when I was younger, and the older I get, the less I want to be involved in a relationship, especially since I’m not good at maintaining one. I tend to think that getting older means I’m comfortable with being alone. I can’t speak for everyone, but seeing a woman who wears glasses isn’t a turn off, it’s a turn on because it accentuates the surrounding facial features, and distorts the underlying features with a transparent barrier, which seems mysterious, but still exposed at the same time. I’ve seen some middle aged women who have looked attractive, even with gray hair, of which I tend to think of as being silver.
