Hello, I've posted before on other boards once in awhile, but am no closer to having any answers to the dilemmas in my life. Brief history: I do not feel in any way that I've had any success with men in my life at all. Never had a first love at 16 like a lot of other people have, never had a true love in my life, and have never had any man show me any type of long term affection. I am now 42 and these are the things I have going for me: I know I am pretty. I am a sweet good-natured person. I have a love for life and for people. I have recently lost weight and have shed 50 lbs. These are some other things: I am 5'8" and weigh 230 lbs. But I wear it very well and am very proportional. I have a nice figure when I am thinner.
Anyway, what is the problem for me? Why don't I have love from men? Why am I not noticed most times? I am 42 but look very young. People often think I am as young as 25. I am confused, and when I see men with women who are either very unattractive, or unappealing in personality, at least from my point of view, it confuses me even more. I find that as I get older, this is not getting any clearer to me. I really need help figuring this out. Please, if you are interested in giving me some clear-cut answers, I'll be happy to answer most questions and maybe I can get some clue into the male mind. Thank you so much.
