hehe LOL Coyote and mmm!!!
You've done it again!! A funny AND thought-provoking thread!! hehe..
Well, Coyote, I'd be afraid of any stds and personal baggage too, I guess.. (or the gf running after me with a dangerous kitchen utensil!! or dragging you away for holidays/weekends etc - the classic 'mistress/wife' scenarios etc) and I think you're not eco enough for me!!!
As for 'open relationships' - I think both/all parties must agree... And still it can be difficult, what with safety/health/stds and people's moods and 'group dynamics' etc.. (That is what I READ about lol!!)
You have all sorts of people out there (both gurls and guys) and some may be okay with it...??
Do you want a harem??
That said, I did have a *HUGE* crush on Coyote (before we knew he was 'taken' hehe) so it can be done!! (A bunch of other SA-ers probably did too!!
)
Other factors that some women may consider: any kids (and how old they are - some may be okay with certain ages, some not) or lack of those, wish for more kids or not, your own wishes and ideals for the present and the future, what are the financial arrangements and how you get along with your exes etc. Do you run if an ex beckons or is it 'in the past' etc. What kind of life do you wish to build and live, is it compatible?
Does he expect a housmaid or a 'slave'/therapist/mum, or just someone to be together in life and share things with? would life with him be stressful or FUN/easygoing/peaceful... etc. Does he ever wash dishes or would expect the woman to do everything? Does he believe in 'men's work' and 'womanly things'? What kind of cooking skills does he possess or expect?? etc. lol
(eg if her dreamlife is on a boat with Donald Trump sorry Coyote no go - The Donald is happily married after probably many exes though too!! or at least seems to be-??)
I've been hit on by guys 10+ years older and 10 years younger, so hmm?? It really does depend on the person.. If you really like him and you're compatible a lot of things can be overcome or can be 'insignificant'... Each woman is different and has different values and priorities... Maybe ten would go 'OMG no!' but maybe a few would go 'Hell yeah!!?' (And do you really wish ALL women to be attracted to you?? OMG!! If ONE can make your life miserable already??
hmmm??!!)
I think you also need to be honest with yourself: do you look for another 'gf' or 'friends with benefits' or something else entirely? Or maybe just some friends and more interesting hobbies or such?
I think the whole 'experience/background' thing matters to some women more, to some less, to some not at all.. Apparently you wish to find those who are okay with who you are...
There are girls/women who will only date younger guys with no baggage/kids/ex wives, or guys up to a certain age... (if they can find them) or guys who aren't 'womanizers/Don Juans'... There are also girls who will only date Mormons or muslims or orthodox religions etc. Some actually 'prefer' older guys, or more experienced.. Some prefer younger and not so experienced.. There's a huge variety of preferences and priorities out there... (An (older) woman on another forum said she's too old to teach the really young guys though lol!! Then again other - maybe younger girls may be happy to do so or to learn together..)
So, whoever you are, there are chances for you out there, which of course Coyote you know already!!!
