WOW you’re projecting your insecurities and baggage on me wayyyyyy too much.
“That might be why you’re single”? You’re the one posting on dating over 40. I’m in my mid-20s so it’s normal for me to be single.
I don’t even know how much of this I should address as you seem to live in some weird misogynistic world. I’m not looking for someone to take me on an airplane the second date or even in a relationship. Quite frankly, as a decent looking woman, I can get a few dates a week. There’s men who invite me to get dinner at nice places and there’s men who invite me to grab a drink at a bar. Of course the one who is most compatible with me is the right one, but if we are talking purely on a basis of which one seems more invested and financially stable, then I think it’s quite obvious.
