Hey! What's up with that? Don't you know that life begins at 40? <g>. 

I just turned 42 and I've been married for 23 years - to the same woman,
no less!

Anyway, when I'm out with the guys playing pool a couple of nights a week
I come across a lot of girls, mainly under 30, who are dying to talk to
older, experienced men.

Not that I'm consciously looking for anything to develop but there have
been a few times where things could have progressed way beyond talk, and
with the lady being the initiator. I've been asked out in no uncertain
terms a couple of times.

Maybe it's curiosity, plain and simple. I'm on the quiet side. Plus, I'm
no Brad Pitt in the looks department. But the girls I see regularly (some
in their early 20s) during my leisure time prefer to sit and chat with me
rather than the younger, prettier, flashier guys who come and go.

So, I don't think it's the age so much as what one has to offer. And
wisdom and experience can make it a lot easier and enjoyable to develop
new relationships.

Regards,

F. G.
