I'd say that everyone is "damaged" in some way at 40+, no matter your status or gender. lol

My point being, that it doesn't really make a difference. You just have to find someone that you hit it off with and vice versa.

Yeah, but the positive flip side is that a lot of times people grow and learn from getting their hearts stomped on..... some do and some don't.....

"Over 40 never married man, am I a social pariah, "creepy" "damaged goods" or gay? LOL "
hmm, lets see
1) 41 never married..Check
2) Not a social pariah, I'm happy and people like me.
3) Not creepy, I have lots of female and male friends. If I was creepy I would think not.
4) Not damaged goods. I am not resentful towards anyone and don't feel like damaged goods.
5) Mom.....Guess what

Thanks but I wasn't offended I take it in stride because I know I don't look "normal" and I know my looks are a selective taste to others.

A couple weeks ago I was out smoking a cig just out of the shower after doing my yard work admiring my freshly trimmed yard and the eight bags of leaves from my oak trees that seem to come back as soon as I clean them up and my neighbor bless her heart came out to gab which I gave her a glass of red wine (Lambrusco my fav and got a glass right now too) to drink with me and she started on the "so when you gonna get a wife or have a girl move in"?

Now a couple times in the past I had already been questioned by her when she spotted a honey with me at the house "so who was that"? lol.....

She is Italian, and has a huge family living there plus her daughter down the street who made moves on me when I moved in btw ,and I guess family orientated people have a hard time comprehending people like me lol, hell sometimes I don't comprehend myself.

But I replied "ya know I work all day then devote myself almost every night to guitar after so I just don't have time or focus on looking seriously". She rolled her eyes but what ever.

But then there are days like last week where I see a woman that makes my composer and reasoning just fall away about as fast as my tongue is falling away. Ya so supposedly being older and wiser you have a handle on your composer and reasoning, I call BS on that because when confronted with massiveness I revert to babbling like porky pig and maybe not thinking exactly clear but certainly focused lol.

Yeah at work I tie it off and when looking at me frontal I look like having short hair until I turn around to unveil that horse tail lol. I am actually gonna take about 3 inches off soon , to where at least it will only take 1 or 2 ties to pony it instead of 3 or 4. But I to will never be the clean cut type it just isn't me.

I usually dye it but haven't bothered in 2 months and I sense a difference on how people react to me with 50% grey showing, I especially sense it from women. Just been lazy to do it recently but gonna get rid of the greys soon again. Whether it is man or woman, dyeing the grey away makes you generally look younger.
