My age is a factor because I just don't share the same interests with most men I meet over 40+. Work, sports, and finance are not my total existence!
But recently a younger friend explained that because I have so many interests and am so open with people, I am intimidating. <sigh> I was not surprised by the assessment because I was told that in my early 20s too, but it really caught me off guard when this person I admire for his own self assuredness felt that way.
Clue: Women who seem intimidating, but not threatening, are usually very easy to get along with once you cross that barrier. We don't have as much baggage and insecurity for you to have to deal with.
Only an open mind and open heart can be filled with life. ********************* Find your voice; silence will not protect you.
