I’ll disagree....After I lost my husband in my mid 30’s I had no problem at all with attracting men both younger and older. I had to learn how to handle life outside of marriage and they all offered their advice and help. But I will say with this they ‘respected’ me as a woman. .....they still do.
Women over 30 mostly have no problem attracting men, especially if they are enjoyable company. What they have trouble with is (A) attracting men interested in marrying them, and (B) attracting men who can get dates with women under 30.
