Totally.
Depressingly, if a sensitive cultured guy older than me finds me attractive or interesting, he backs off because I look so young and he wants to avoid that label of sharking much younger women which you describe.
Looking young is a serious curse for me. But I'm gonna work on that.
F 5 ft 3. HW: 196 lbs. Primal SW (May 2011): 182 lbs (42% BF)... W June '12: 160 lbs (29% BF) (UK size 12, US size 8). GW: ~24% BF - have ditched the scales til I fit into a pair of UK size 10 bootcut jeans. Currently aligning towards 'The Perfect Health Diet' having swapped some fat for potatoes.
My hair is kind of a beacon for attention so I could not say whether I get attention from my lifestyle changes haha. I often forget why people are staring at me.
FW, good to see you posting. Your smartassery has been missed.

Yep. My wife has taken notice of other people taking notice.
Probably doesn't help much that I'm not presently wearing a wedding band. It doesn't fit anymore LOL. Need to have it taken down a size or two.
OMG this old Gwamma was hit on last night whilst out and about....and really sadly.... I didn't notice it, but DH did.
Really sad when you get old and dottery !!!! LOL

Anyone on here look their age? Older?![]()
People too weak to follow their own dreams will always try to discourage others.
Some people read energy and vitality along with noticeable fitness as youth, regardless of the other markers like smile lines or grey hairs. I look at most of my partner's male friends and realize how rare a guy who is fit over 40 really is.
