lol..i hear ya. well, after losing a 6-figure aviation career, i've been rather 'humbled' (read: 'disgusted) to find out just how many women in the 35-40 age range now consider me a 'high-risk' of 'low-security'..lol. oh, and mention the acronym 'ptsd' and you can clear a room..
i'm finding much better luck speaking with women a few years older than me, around 45 like the gal in fort worth, tx i mentioned. by that age, many have abandoned the notion of the 'rich prince', have been ****ed-over too many times and just really want to meet a decent man. i have no children..but 'presumably' this is considered 'advantageous' to women not looking to be an 'instant mom'. so i guess i've got one thing going for me..good grief.
