Yes. May not be so easy but God works in mysterious ways.

@poster
you can find the man of your dreams even at 75yrs old. . . . . .  as its never too late to dream.
the guy might not look as good as the guy you were dreaming about in your 20s but hey, who cares as long as you are happy.

ps: if at 40something, you are still hoping to meet a never married/childless/fantastic looking/rich/successful/straight/single guy with no baggage then you probably should lower your dreams standards or accept that you might have to wait a long time for that jackpot.

yea u can. just make make sure to search d right places and have expectations that match ur status.

actually she can. if she has a high status, ie if she's wealthy, classy, goodlooking and confident then there is no reason for her not to have similar expectations in a guy.

what i wrote had nothing to do with who she was or what "status" but just that this kind of men are VERY hard to find because these are the qualities that ALL women seek and therefore they get "taken off the market" like a flash.

people can "expect" all they want but they also have to be realistic with life or accept that the search might take a while.
Re: Can You Find The Man Of Your Dreams At 40 Something ? by oyinda3(f): 8:06am On Jan 15, 2010
yea i agree with that. and esp. if a woman in her 40s takes the "never married" off her list of requirements (which i doubt they will have anyways), it will be so much easier since divorce is getting so common nowadays. lol
Re: Can You Find The Man Of Your Dreams At 40 Something ? by Nobody: 8:08am On Jan 15, 2010
I believe there are sales of divorce vouchers currently ocurring, because nowadays it's just like buying your mince beef from marks and spencers, obviously cheesy

^ now women can take turns marrying the men of their dreams. rotfl grin
Re: Can You Find The Man Of Your Dreams At 40 Something ? by Nobody: 8:18am On Jan 15, 2010
@post
but the funny part in this thread is that A successful MAN in his mid forties can easily find the woman of his dreams (in her 20s/never married/sexy/intelligent bla bla) but successful women these days are catching up to the trend.
Re: Can You Find The Man Of Your Dreams At 40 Something ? by oyinda3(f): 8:22am On Jan 15, 2010
nah. most men in their 40s usually end up re-marrying women around their age bracket (at most 5-6 yrs younger) as well sometimes also a woman who has been married b4. it depends on their social circle n back ground. like will always move with like. but i agree the women out number the men so the men have an advantage.

see this link. she's been married b4 and is 6 yrs older than the guy. but they have a similar social circle n educational background i think with the woman a bit above her class wise.

but if your talking abt typical naija, then even men in their 70s can marry 18yrs old girl as long as he get money yafun yafun .  grin don't even care abt her brain size or background.

If I interpret "man of her dreams" to mean a young, hot stud (like the boris kodjoe that's causing these phantasmagorical NL girls to salivate) then

To be brutally frank here, she must be ridiculously glowing with an insane amount of wealth

to pull off a stunt like that.

unless serendipity interferes and thus allows her to land that gem  grin
Re: Can You Find The Man Of Your Dreams At 40 Something ? by Nobody: 9:30am On Jan 15, 2010

Yes, afterall Dimeji Bankole is 40 and still single, late marriage occurs both ways these days. Best of luck but you may have to change the criteria for your dream man accordingly

can same be said for a 40 years old succesful man that has two kids from a previous marriage. do u think its acheivable to get a pretty intelligent lady that has nevert been married?

to some extent, Yes, any "top notch" girl marrying such a man would be warned by friends and relatives and most times would enter the "union" with some reservations or even an MOU, lol

the important word in what you wrote is SUCCESSFUL .
you see, some women are attracted to success and easily overlook the little details such as children from previous marriage etc.

so that means they are in it for the comfort and money?
