    Yeah as long as they can take it, they can dish it.

    My thoughts - I am not about to police anyone’s desires, that’s not my job. Be as picky as you want, it’s a big world full of people, you will probably find someone. Just don’t get mad if the woman you want finds you don’t meet her standards. I’ve had guys turn me down for being tall, don’t care, better to know that even if I think it’s stupid, right?

    I think my daughters were pickier than the boys, honestly. Not about $$ at all but more picky in general. The boys did more like I did, and their dad, just sort of get around and see what sticks, you might be surprised who you find hottest and most attractive.

    I would be annoyed if a guy didn’t like that I work and take care of my looks and health, too. My husband is funny, he says I have raised his standards. Me, I got what I wanted, sex every day and a guy who works and makes money, works out, he’s not shredded at all but fit and padded, yes? He got what he wanted, I work and make money, shit at housekeeping but really good cook, I stay in shape and work out too. So some of what reads as picky can be more lifestyle matching. I would not be with a sedentary guy, certainly not at this point. I am older and not signing up for a 100% chance of taking physical care of some physically idle old man when he inevitably gets sick.
