Gardener - you asked: "I don't drink, don't like bars and besides I don't think that women in my age bracket are in the bars and I probably wouldn't like the ones who are.**Ladies: Where are the 40-50 year old women to be found?**"
Answer - dance classes. Find yourself a salsa, swing, or ballroom dance class and you'll be surrounded by women in your age group. Also you will be in the minority, there are always 4 women to each man in dance communities.
