why

[docellis]

As an experiment to attempt a new lifestyle, I think I am going to do an iron on t-shirt that says "I LOVE MOOBS" next time I go out.

I guess my question is, why do you want a 33-36 year old? Why aren't the 25 year olds worth the time of day?

I didn't say they weren't worth the time of day. Honestly, I love them. They haven't been beaten down by life yet, they say cute things and it is like the first time they've ever said them - they are freaking adorable.

But, I guess I feel like really, it just isn't appropriate. I would feel silly bringing them around my family or friends. My little brother is 26.

I think I am just really immature.

Ridiculous.

As long as you're happy, what do care about their opinion? If they are at all attentive, they'll see the happiness the relationship is bringing to you.

Don't forget that 25 year olds are like really dumb balls of clay you can mold how you want.

I wonder if people sometimes set their standards too high. I mean, seriously......... a bright, personable, fit, handsome man is probably going to be "spoken for" by the time he's 35, wouldn't you think? Or at least the vast majority of them will be (which is why doc can't find one). To me, it's really that simple.

Well, here's the thing: that bright, handsome, successful man (or woman) might be taken by the time s/he is 35. But they might be single again by the time they're 36. People get married later and later. Yeah, successful, fun hotties are likely to be taken. But they're also likely to become single again at some point, either by breakup or divorce or what have you.

At the risk of sounding like a hopelessly romantic idiot, I truly believe there is someone for everyone and maybe they just have crossed paths yet. That doesn't mean anyone has set their sights to high, it just means they haven't met yet. Plus, don't forget beauty is in the eye of the beholder, fit and handsome to one person isn't always the same for the next person. I would be much more attracted to a man who makes me laugh and is a good companion than a good looking guy. People who are too smart and too good looking are scary.
Too rich I can handle, that doesn't scare me.

And the second quote is right on, can you see me raising my hand and jumping all over!

I think you're on the rigth track. But I think that there's more than one person for everyone. And if they haven't found "you" yet by the time they're 35, chances are that they've found someone else that's a good fit for them.

In reality, I think the pool of eligible, attractive potential mates is exponentially smaller when you're in your mid-30's than when you're in your mid-20's. That's why it's far more difficult to find someone who is compatible, and why you (at some point) may either have to set your sights a little bit differently, or be perfectly content hanging out with 25-year olds or by yourself.

And when I say "you", I don't mean you specifically. I'm just speaking in general terms.

So far I haven't found any of them to be unintelligent...Compared to say, 38 year old guys, I think they seem to think quicker and about more things. They still have the thoughts in their heads that all those college courses put there.

But I think I am going to shut up about this topic now.

I think your assuming that everyone wants to find "one" person. I think that is a good assumption for most people, but not everyone. I wasn't put here to make babies. But I know most people were. And that is ok.

My rant was intended to be more light-hearted than this. I'm not soul searching.

And NOW I am shutting up.

George Brett didn't get married until he was 39. Of course after watching that video where he talks about [expletive] hit pants, that may explain why.

they are freaking adorable.

I've actually been described this way to my face on more than one occasion. And it was kind of frustrating.
