Exploring Dating Diversity In Your 40′s

by JYD

I have learned a lot about dating in the year I have been single; especially dating online. I have found it interesting how many white women, after a divorce consider dating out of their race.  Many have messaged me and asked if I dated white women. I usually laugh or give them a hard time before I answer.  But it’s also interesting how many say they always wanted to but never did.  This intrigues me since I have dated whom ever I chose my whole life and wonder what makes one wait until they are in their 40’s to do what they have always wanted to do.  And why couldn’t you do it in your 30’s or 20’s?  Did they not have the personal courage to date outside their race?

I assume they fell to the pressure of the society they found themselves growing up in.  My father was military.  So many of my friends were mixed and the culture I was in, interracial marriages were very common, mainly German women and black men.  Most of the responses I have gotten from women I have met were what I felt were typical.  I lived in a small town and there were none. 426  320x240 white woman Exploring Dating Diversity In Your 40s  I’ve always been attracted to black men but didn’t act on it or my father would have killed me.  So now you’re older and feel you’re ready to date whom ever you choose.  Many of these women have a lot going for them and some don’t.  But all seem to be at a place where they are sexually free and enjoy their new found sexual prowess.  It’s nice at this age because the games don’t seem to be present and there is more straight forward talk.

    JYD…. I've always thought that women are open to change after a few bad experiences. This is especially true after a long miserable relationship/marriage. And lots of times they explore other options in their 30's – 40's.

    I personally never really thought about dating a black man until I was newly single and out in the dating scene. Then I was just looking for a man that interested me. I didn't care what color he was. Just so happened that the few I meet were black.

    I rarely actually saw any black people for the first 40 years of my life as I lived in mostly rural parts of the Pacific NW. Since my mother was in control the first 20 years, and I was married for the next 20 (to my first boyfriend), pretty much was what it was. When I got divorced and finally realized that I could pick who I wanted to date, I started dating black men. To me they seem to be middle-of-the-road when they are middle aged. Not too full of themselves, not too whipped, and they age more like a fine wine rather than a Coors left in the sun too long.

    I've never traveled to the rural NW. But from what I saw in Portland, Seattle & Tacoma.. I was blown away by the diversity. But I think once people step out of the shadows and the box.. we find a new world.

    Thanks for the comment :)

    I am a 47 year old white male and going through a divorce. Not until the last few years have I really started noticing beautiful black ladies. I find some very very attractive, I wouldn’t mind dating some of the women I have seen.
