Oh fuck this reminds me of another hilarious story.

So I met this girl on tinder. She's a butterface, not completely but def some hesitation. She was interesting because she worked managing a yacht of a very famous pro athlete and I wanted to see if I could eventually convince her to get me on the yacht and fuck her. Note she lives like 3 hours away. She tells me she's coming into town on Saturday and I'm like oh wow ok cool, wanna meet up? She's like sure how about at your place? I paused for a moment of hesitation because I knew her face was kinda meh and inviting her over gives me no out if it ends up she's a mule.

Friday night comes along and I'm out with some friends at the local watering hole. Wrapping up the night and jump in my buds car for a ride home. Now said bud is a complete online dating whore, has every dating app on his phone. I tell him the situation and he's like, show me a pic. Pull out my phone and show him. He's like aw its not that bad. We then proceed to have a 15min discussion where I tell him I'm concerned about her horse face and he tries to convince me that if I have enough drinks it's no problem.

He asks to see another pic, I pull out my phone and notice something... I had accidentally called her...... My body just sinks, it's been on voicemail for like 10min... I immediately hang up and freak out. Buddy is like dude calm down she prob didn't hear anything. 10 min later I get a text from her saying "that was a very insightful voicemail.."

I immediately block and delete her. Go home and sleep my shame off in disappointment of never getting the chance to fuck her on pro athletes yacht

I've done the same thing a handful of times after saying embarrassing shit for whatever reason.

I had talked to a girl for a bit on Tinder...she was cute but she looked a little mannish. So being the Bay Area and all, I don't know why I asked, but I'm like "Are you a transsexual by chance?" And she immediately responded "Um NO." Annnnnd that was an immediate embarassed delete from me.

My brother in law is 35 dating a 47 year old grandma. She's absolutely, 100% disgusting. Morbidly obese, ugly, on disability, lived in the ghetto and has a pitbull. We actually thought it was a joke when we met her. But no... He's balls deep with her. Anyways long story short his parents are only 13 years older than this chick. It's so fucking awkward whenever they're at the house with us.

This woman has more grand children than his parents do.. because you know at 18 they all start popping out babies in the ghetto

Jesus. Well I can imagine if he's into that, he's not much of a prize himself?

I don't know if anyone can relate? As a young professional and mature (I know, shocking claim coming from me) almost nearing 30. I'm kind of in this situation where I feel like most younger women, I'll say 26 and under just seem way too immature. Maybe half seem to have shit jobs, barista, secretary, etc with no clear goals. Then on the flip side women my age and older are more mature, maybe less shit careers but now they all want you to ring them up asap and give them babies... Which I honestly have 0 interest in doing at this point in life.

It's like being stuck in the middle. I'm starting to think best route to take is wait till I'm 35ish and want kids then find someone younger 28-34.

I can speak to this a bit. I think 30 is absolutely to some extent stuck in the middle. I think 35 is a solid point where you've got younger women way interested in you, and if you do meet a woman your age they're also going to be super into you.

Ever since I've been 35-39 I've got a lot of interest from women typically 26 ranging all the way up to 50+ if you're into fucking MILFs. A lot of younger women want older guys, the older women want to fuck younger guys, and women your own age at 35-40 want to marry you.

Mid to late 30's is a damn good place to be for dating, at the least where I'm at.

That's not to say you can't find someone successful at 30. That's a big reason why I left Florida. I could have got married there easily, but like you said, the pool of educated women there / where ever you're at was SLIM. I moved here to California, and there's a shit ton of women 24-30 with great jobs and degrees.

Well that's good to hear. Think I'll table relationships another 5 years to focus on my career. Ironically I'm in Florida and attempting to get out at the moment.

If you do want kids I'd be a bit careful waiting too late though. After 35 (female)the chance for birth defects in kids rises dramatically.

Yah. That’s why I’ve been trying to date no women older than 35, and I lean more 30-34, as I’d like to have kids.

There’s a crazy amount of women on online dating who in their profiles still say they want to have their first kid at 40-43. I’m like...I respect your decision, but good luck with that.

Yeah, me. I was acting a lot like you though so I get it.

Don't pretend you don't have the gigantic faggot thing on lockdown, dude. I'm not even a blip on the radar of the bullshit you've pulled around here.

The only reason I'm even interacting with you is your moderator tag overwrites the ignore function. Now you can feel free to regale me with some rambling tirade I'm not going to read, or simply abuse your power again to win an argument you can't win with your brain.

Eh, he’s always upset. His divorce made him bitter, it’s cool. We had one disagreement a few weeks ago and now he’s upset with me, which is odd because I was calm and collected the whole time he raged at me. No biggie, shame cause I always liked him. -shrug-

Also, I wouldn’t wanna be pushing 60 when my kids graduate...but everyone’s different. My brother is 42 and had a kid last year and it blows my mind thinking about it.

It could be even crazier.

My cousin has two boys who are 17 and 16. Got divorced from her husband because he’s a cheater.

Met a new guy, she got pregnant at like 40 accidentally, then they decided they didn’t want to raise that boy alone, so they had a kid at 41 or 42 also. Those boys are something like 1.5 and 3 now.

The 3 year old is “slow” and isn’t much talking yet, and had to wear leg braces. The 1.5 year old they’re also saying is likely learning disabled.

What a life in your 40s...

It’s so weird to see me, being a single guy, my first ever girlfriend as a teenager (she was 20) now has a kid who is a sophomore in college.

But also I know when she had a kid at 20 she didn’t do shit with her younger life. It’s all kinda a tossup, pros and cons either way.

I work with a guy who is 58 and has daughters 12-14 years old and said he wouldn’t have done it any other way.

My daughter is turning 1 this week, I'll be 45 in August. Our son will be 5 in October. My wife will be 41. We just didn't meet anyone worth having kids with before we met each other. In one regard, were the old parents on our block of 30 somethings, but in another we have our shit together with finances and other stuff too.

I have a buddy whose son is turning 11 this year. He married the mom in part because she had three other kids so he knew she was fertile. That marriage didn't last past the kid turning one. Rather do it my way than his way.

My oldest are 18, my youngest is 10. I'm 45.

I'm entirely comfortable with my age and my kids. I'll be 54 when my youngest graduates high school. 58 when he finishes undergrad. It's not young, but it isn't ancient. My goal is to live long enough to see my kids all set into a career path that makes them happy. Or at least provides for them. Once I die, my family will be well set for life, but I want them to make a living for themselves.

I just turned 43 a couple weeks ago, my wife is 39 and our daughter will be 2 at the end of the month. Part of me is concerned with how old I'll be as she is going through life, but the rest of me sure is happy I was childless all through my 20s and 30s.

Yeah, there’s no perfect mold for sure. When my oldest is 18 I’ll be 40, with my youngest I’ll be 48. I’m pretty happy with that myself.

It's kind of crazy with the changing times. Now, I'm not in the south where it's common to have kids when you're 18. But we go to parties and stuff and all the parents seem older, like 40 years old with toddlers. We had our first at 32 and none of my peers had kids until years after

Had my first at 32. Will stop at 47. I plan to retire at 65. So that means no job and no kids at the same time.

The work will be done then.

Unless I knock up a stripper when I'm like 60...
