Well - about the dating thing - I'm a couple years older than you, let me just say I'm darned HAPPY men still want me for that!
That being said - one of the nicest things to come out of dating after my divorce, has been how much the men I've dated liked me for ME. After 26 years with a man who was never really satisfied with me, (among other things, I was never thin enough for him, even when I was downright skinny), it was refreshing to be with men who cherished my midlife curvy figure. Even when I was a very skinny 120 lbs, I always had broad hips - I'm just built that way. Now that I weigh 40 lbs more, it's my sexy booty that first drew the attention of my current boyfriend!
(Of course, he stays because I'm kind, smart, gutsy, and funny, among other things!)
