Most of us came to this site to find someone.They suggest sending 10 e-mails per day may increase your chances of success.I am sure it would,however,I and others  may not have time to send that many.Suppose,you send out some e-mails and get no response.What should you do?Well.you could go to bed and pull the covers up over you.However,I guarantee that won,t help you.You must be able to withstand rejection.The problem is a lot of persons take it personally and give up trying.Why did they not answer?Maybe they were not interested,you were not the person they were looking for,or have already found someone,or even did not visit the site recently.We all  get rejected at times,it just life.What you should do is keep on trying.Such as sending out e-mails and such,despite rejections.Tom Jackson in his book(Guerilla Tactics in the Job Market)said when you are looking for a job,you will keep hearing no over and over again until you finally hear yes,and that yes is all you need.Now,I know we are not looking for work on this site.However,the same principle hold true.If you can withstand the rejections and you must in order to accomplish your goal.you will find someone who is interested.It will take time,I do not know how much,however it should happen.You may be happy and smiling then and any past rejections may not mean anything.

Jag 6000,I did not want to be hypocritical,about Dagma64.,if she seeking a younger man.After all,we are both trying to find younger women.We may want children.Not all guys do,some do not want children.It depends on the person,it varies.Anyhow,Dagma64,I checked it out,it is definitely illegal to stone anyone to death in the United States,So you can stop worrying about that.Anyhow maybe someone should have talked Anton Kutchner out of marrying Demi Moore.I think the whole thing should be up to the persons involved as long as they are both adults.

Dagma64Thanks you,for your post.I think it was a good point.I think the reason a lot of older men like myshelf,look for younger women is their desire to have children.Yes,everyone will say what a lucky guy.Because at our age,it is no small feat to find a younger woman.Most  of course are not interested.However,occassionally,you may come across someone.Most men and women must face the fact if they are looking for a younger partner,it is going to be very hard to find one who will accept a much older person.Of course,there are other cultures in the world in which such relationships are normal.I agree both men and women have a right to look for younger persons.As long as the other person is not bother by the age difference,no one is hurt.of course,some may say it may bother them later.If it does,then the relationship must end.Still,age-gap relationships can and do work.It is just taboo by our crazy society for some reason.While infidelity is all too common in marriages.and how about physical abuse.Both are I think worse and do hurt persons,while a age-gap relationships enter into willingly hurt no-one.our society should be more open-minded and accepting.I really agree with you.Good luck in your search.

I just would like to say that from what I see, hear and read it is ALWAYS VERY NORMAL for an older man 60+ to look for a relationship with a 20 or 30 year old woman. According to everybody they would say "What a Lucky Guy"!!!  On the other hand, when a woman my age 60+ is interested in a younger man in his 40's or early 50's every body criticises. They would even STONE ME TO DEATH!!!  Why is that?  I believe men and women have the right to look for any age they feel comfortable with.  No one us hurting anyone.
WE NEED TO BE MORE OPEN MINDED AND ACCEPTING.

Steepy2000.looked at your profile,the age-range states   I think 32-52.Do you realize someone who is as young as 32 could be considered a age-gap relationship?Not by much,however by a little.

steepy2000,it is probably true that if I did look for someone my own age,I would not keep getting rejected,and it would indeed be easier to find someone.However,the thing is a woman mine own age ,would probably has her biological clock,run out and I could never hope to have children.Which I would like.Besides,do you realize than there are other countries in the world,where the situation is completely reversed and the women actually prefer older men,unlike the United States.In those cultures,old age is actually a plus and not  a negative like here.Do not get me wrong,the United States is a great country.However,the whole age thing is a big peroblem for guys like me,that never had children,earlier.,and now want them.this blog is indeed a oversimplification.Thought it may be encouraging.Believe me,I know how hard it is for guys like me and Jag6000.Believe me I got plenty of rejections too and will.Sometimes I think I may not be realistic.However,maybe there is someone somewhere(who will accept the age thng.

well just look for someone your age and you want keep getting rejected.if you add a few more zeros behind your income level. you'll get plenty of offers,because she can close her eyes and think about all the shopping she'll be able to do when you're in bed.other than that you're wasting your time.
