4 females 35+ are you more/less open to direct advances then when you were 18-25?

Question

I messed up the question in failing to say asume you are single and that disease is not a factor. I want to know if a woman becomes more or less open to a direct approach with age. And as there are horrible diseases today that obviously would effect your answer I want you to assume they do not exist. The ideas or facts of marriage add 2 additional variables that will definitely influence the results. I want to know how age alone has effected your attitudes towards what kind of approach a man makes on you.

Answer 1

No.  i was open to a lot of advances when i was young, but I am quite out of practice at it now.  if I did get an advance at my time of life I wouldn't know what to do with it.

Answer 2

Less.  Back when I was younger, I thought only men should do the approaching and I was always flattered by an approach.  Now, I am not aware as much of other people around me and I date only men whom I approach.  I'm not actively looking for male companionship as I was when I was younger.  It's like men as a group were the reason my eyes were open.  Now, I see only the rare fascinating man who stands out and I then go flatter HIM with my eyes wide open.   : )

Answer 3

im married but men still flirt or hit on me. i am less open to it. when i was younger i was like OK!  but now im like get outta here! should i ever be single again i will still be weary of people in this day and age!

Answer 4

im just as open now as i was then ..but i just dont take up the offers

Answer 5

I'm not quite at the 35+ range, but I can say that I look at s*x differently than I did in my early 20s, when I did accept direct advances.  I'm at a time in my life when s*x hold great importance to me.  I must have an emotional connection with a person before they can become a sexual partner.  I don't mean that I have to be in love with the person or even in a romantic relationship.  I must at the very least be good friends with the person before becoming sexual partners.  That way, even if a sexual relationship ends, we're still friends because we were friends first and foremost.  That being said, I'm not offended to direct advances and would take them as flattering, but I would immediately refuse and continue to, even if there was sexual attraction, until that foundation of friendship was built first.

Answer 6

The only one I'm open to now, is my husband. I was single back then.
