If you’re active on dating websites, the age range you target will be a personal decision, up to you alone. Here are some factors other midlife women have considered.

“Age is just a number,” says Spikeygrrrl, a Vibrant Nation member. “Shared values, shared life goals and lifestyles, shared and/or compatible work and play habits, are all far more important.”
“I do feel, however, that men of a similar age to ours are seeking much younger women,” says Ozjo. “Not all, of course, but I do believe the majority are. I am 52 and have been lately thinking that in order to be successful online perhaps I should be looking in the 60+ age group. I figure that the 60+ guy will then view me as the younger woman that he is sure he can attract and catch!”
Seawriter, a Vibrant Nation blogger, has a different perspective. “For what it’s worth, I just added a little paragraph to my online profile that says: ‘While I appreciate the emails and winks I’ve been getting from younger men, I am really looking for a partner close to my own age. We have lived in the same times, listened to the same songs, and have a comfortable and comforting understanding of each other that comes from being of the same age group.’ I’m hoping that will encourage the older men! For some unknown reason, I get a disproportionate number of responses from men considerably younger than I am. I am too rational to be flattered, and tend to think it’s more likely I’m being viewed as a potential sugar mama.”
“I think some young guys will be testing to see if you are a cougar: older woman dating substantially younger men,” says Lovelysmile0916. “Look at Jennifer Lopez and Madonna dating guys in their mid-20′s. Classic examples. You know that’s all about young, hot, sex — and they have the funds to take care of the young man too.”

I have never seen another woman's vagina, so have no idea what they look like, except mine.....I assume you mean (not vagina), But labia....the outer lips. I think it is sad you/anyone thinks any body part is ugly. Our bodies are amazing. I dou
Roadrunner,
Let us know how your lips turn out, mine are so thin I have often thought of doing something. But I am scared whitless!
The choice about what age category you should look in should be based on the group you are most attracted to. When scanning through profiles just check out the ones you find attractive. A pattern will form ( for me it’s 24-34 year olds) but you will quickly find your preference. That’s where you start. This is not so say that if a cute 60ish guy messages you and you find there is nice chemistry, that you should throw him back because he’s not young and hot. Haha. Bottom line- post your prettiest smile and write something that’s totally “you”. Then see who takes the bait. I know what I need in the way of character, education, emotionally and financially stable and refuse to compromise on those. The rest is more negotiable. Have fun!
