From the author: Late marriage is a smart marriage. What to consider when building partnerships in adulthood. Instructions for use. Adult dreams should also come true... So - forty years! The women are still charming, the men are also, for the most part, respectable and elegant. A wonderful time of maturity for some and the first manifestations of terrifying age-related changes for others. It should be noted that not every woman after 40 wants to get married. After all, living independently has many advantages: you don’t have to adapt to anyone, change your plans, you can do your favorite things at a pace that’s convenient for you. However, this article is for those who still want to meet their “soul mate.” Advantages of age For a woman, 40 years of age is still a time of fairly good health, mature intelligence, and acquired life experience. There is already a certain social status, the children have matured and no longer require increased attention. At this age, a woman still has a lot of juice and beauty, but she can’t just be grabbed. A 40-year-old woman no longer needs to prove anything to herself or others. It is after 40 years that it is time to pay attention to yourself and your needs and, perhaps, think “Where, how and with whom will I spend my old age?” This is a time of partnerships with people, where you are partners, fellow travelers. All your new relationships with men will now be built on this principle. About men Men also gain experience, but of a different kind. They are slowly beginning to understand what a woman needs and why they need her. At least they pay more attention to it. And since youthful “tirelessness”, as a rule, has long been in the past, the quality, duration and comfort of relationships begins to be valued. Of course, sometimes you want to show off your “valiant prowess” with a young beauty, but you already understand that love for a mature woman is more reliable. In addition, in the sexual sphere, now both men and women are equally responsible for the success of the “event”. With a mature woman, a man can afford to fail. Those who try to stay in the “youth” mode, as a rule, suffer one fiasco after another according to the principle “he rushed like seven hundred and got stuck.” In addition, if a man is usually attracted to physical beauty in a young woman, then from a forty-year-old he already expects skills that more than compensate for physical imperfections. About beauty Beauty that attracts looks different at this age than in youth. No matter how much you want to capture the imagination of your chosen one, you should not experiment with your appearance: do not wear too sexy outfits - this will certainly arouse his interest, but not at all the one you expect. At this age, many men are attracted not so much to bright women, but to “warm”, soft, feminine ones. It is not sexuality that comes to the fore, but psychological compatibility. It is enough if you are elegant, friendly, and open to communication. A cheerful, cheerful woman is always attractive. Decide what kind of man you need. It’s not for nothing that they say that a late marriage is a smart marriage. This means that first of all you need to pay attention to the commonality of your interests and habits. The more coincidences there are, the easier it will be for you to understand and accept each other. It is possible that your “internal code” will contain a number of special wishes for the candidacy of your future chosen one: the desired level of intelligence, a certain type of appearance, having your own home, etc. You can make a list of all the desirable characteristics, and then select 3-5 that are most significant for you. I would like to immediately warn those women who seek to solve some of their problems through new relationships, for example, to improve their financial situation. Men are not so stupid as not to feel this calculation. Remember that partnerships always involve mutual exchange. Where and how to meet people Unfortunately, many women make the same mistake: they just continue to wait until 07.03.2014
