Hey! Notice i left out SHORT thsi time! lol
No, YOU i wouldnt think twice about. you do NOT look like the guys I am talking about who totally are like a Grampa!
I totally agree about health and physical activity too. Both are important to me and many of the older men I have come in contact with are not very active or in good shape.
I figure when and if the time is right, I will meet someone. I always enjoy reading your posts about you and Hiker!

I know Steph... I totally agree with you! It's just that I couldn't resist messing with ya on that one! ;-)
I know what you mean though... I've been contacted through Match by men who are in their 50's (when I was still in my late 30's), and they just seemed waaaay too old for me. Maybe it's just a number, but it's also a mental thing. Once I was in my 40's though... the thought of someone in his 50's just doesn't seem that far away. Weird huh??
But... I have had some of those "old 50's" people contact me too. The ones who look like they could pass for 60-something, with all white hair, big belly... not for me! I think I would just end up looking TOO young to be standing next to them! lol

Awwww thanks Rebecca *blush* Ouch on the short comment though.... Hey 5' 7 and 1/2" TALL! That 1/2 inch makes all the difference in the world too!
I was telling someone that I use to use the Internet to look to meet women (and I still sometimes do thru MySpace) but because of the shopping mentality and having such criteria of age, height, etc. I know I get screened out (and visa versa). I seem to get better responses when I meet women in person this way they can fully and personally experience my charm, wit, youth, and height *grin*

Totally agree - how many times do you think *I* get weeded out b/c of "body type" ... when in reality, i am SURE my sparking personality & wit , lol, would make them see me as a PERFECT SIZE 5. Yeah, right.
...... & now, 40 is closing is SO FREAKING FAST ... I will soon be weeded out of all the searches that end at age 39 as well. Cripes!

Well, I think a big thing for me is that my stepdad is 7 yrs younger than my mom, he just turned 45... so in MY mind, anyone in their 40's is more of a match for my MOTHER than me, you know?
