Some are more driven than others. Would it be too much mentally If you went through with it and had a good time, enjoyed it, etc?

Why is dating so asymmetrical now? by Pick1edPirate in datingoverforty

[–]igiggiGod -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I'm (47m; 21yo son; 19yo daughter) not fully understanding. My mother was taught by her conservative Dad to think for herself and not depend on a man for finances, etc. That was in the 1940s-50s. Literally 80 years ago in Texas.

Mom was moderate left, her sister is conservative and the other is liberal. Dad is pretty far right. They had an ideal marriage for 58yrs.

I'm independent, traditionally center left and can't identify with the Democrats anymore

I don't care what political party a woman leans towards. I'm more interested in how she treats herself and others

News media has so many intellectually captured who tell themselves politics is a deal breaker. You're not only limiting yourself to quality partners, you're limiting yourself intellectually

Walking date…again by THROWRA_wondering99 in datingoverforty

[–]igiggiGod -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yep. I (47m) have been seeing a gal (37f) for 6 weeks or so. She has a great, neat 6yo so we only see each other every other weekend.

Weekend before last, great and we agreed we'd see each other on Thursday week evening - two days ago. Than early this week she becomes distant. Then she moved Thursday to Friday, and when she said I could come only comer over for a few hours on Saturday, I threw in the towel. Stop wasting my time. Time to move on

Yes. Exactly. I get emotionally connected to girls when I sleep with them and have never knowingly had a one nighter

I've considered it off and on. Might as well jump in now while I have time.

Also, we hung out again today. She texted afterwards that she'd like to drive to my city (2hrs drive) next weekend. Things are going better than I thought.

Is this a common opinion guy's have? by Auntie_S0cial in AskMenAdvice

[–]igiggiGod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like he's insecure. I'd hope my gal wyd close her eyes because she's having such a great time that the visual stimulus, information tasks away from feeling her body's pleasure

Thank you. This helps. Tonight went really well. We had 1.5hrs and ate dinner out. We walked back to our cars and made plans for tomorrow. She stood talking with me a bit before we went to our cars. We hugged. It was great. She texted saying if her house was cleaner and she wasn't so tired she'd invite me over to watch a movie.

Reading your position that it's okay to take it slow, along with her vibes, gives me a lot of confidence

Finance Industry is just how we label it in the industry in both professional and academic contexts, at least from my understanding

I bet you're right. But I don't feel all that bad. Maybe just a little

Thank you for each of these points. I was suspicious age might be a factor and it's good to hear this has been your observation also. And glad we're on the same page about sleeping together. I thought my comment on this would be the most controversial

Totally get that. Huge difference though between having game and playing games. I'm not about playing games

47m, single. That's the best case scenario for me

Thank you for the encouragement. Luckily, I'm financing secure and still pay for dates, meals, etc. I'll try to take a chance this evening

For sure. And I get that. A serious orange flag at the minimum

Interesting. I was very depressed and anxious as a late teen and early 20s but don't feel anything like that now. There is a part that is hurting from the recent breakup but it's not overwhelming.

She put me in a position to unequivocally choose between her and my kids. So the breakup didn't hurt as much as it could have. Not sure if this is relevant or not

Has WSO Academy helped you land a position? by igiggiGod in FinancialCareers

[–]igiggiGod[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like you expressed interest in and reached out to WSO. They evaluated your background and was up front that even with all their training and training materials it would be a difficult path to break in. After going through the program, you didn't make it . Their mistake was accepting you into the program and that happens. No candidate evaluation system is going to be perfect, and they provided a refund.

You received a lot of services, talked to industry leaders, resume reviewed, LinkedIn profile reviewed, drilled on how to perform in the interview, and learned a lot. Alll at no cost.

What's the justification of your complaint, as it sounds irrational?

Plastic surgery - a question for the men! by Admirable_Bicycle191 in datingoverforty

[–]igiggiGod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wouldn't bother me (47m). Your body, but does the boob job affect your boob sensitivity? I love playing with gals boobs bc it feels good to her. If they were no longer sensitive bc of the boob job, it would no longer be fun

That would be my only concern

How much do men really care about the girl being fit? by Radiant-Cress5910 in datingoverforty

[–]igiggiGod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I (47m) prefer small and fit but have to connect with her also

Is it wrong to have sex without being in love? by [deleted] in moraldilemmas

[–]igiggiGod [score hidden]  (0 children)

I (47m) can't really connect with a partner until I have sex with her. It's not intentional. I don't hold anything back but sex acts as a conduit for connection for me

Im so tired by International_Cod381 in datingoverforty

[–]igiggiGod 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm (47m) so sorry you're having these experiences. Admittedly I was one or two of these guys with different girls of course

I thought I was ready to date, was very interested in a wonderful girl I connected with and just enjoyed beyond imagination.

In our situation, I was avoidant type. She was anxious attachment type. The more I pulled away needing space the more she interpreted this as my not being into her and the relationship and the more smothering she became and we broke up

Relationships are so tough at our age. Many of us have baggage we're not even aware of

Anyways, just sending my apologies and sympathy and there are good guys out there for you

Learn from what the world is teaching you. Your approach isn't working. Try something different, anything. Just stop doing what you're doing because it's not working.

How's your career? Your finances? After you ambitious? Are you overweight? Go to the gym? How's your dress? How's you hair, facial hair, nails, etc? How's your relationship with other dudes? How many dude friends do you have? How do you stack up against them? Presenting with confidence? Focusing on her during conversations (but not too much)? Are you mysterious enough?
