And assuming your a woman somewhere close to that what would be the most attractive to you with the exception of appearance? What about his personality would attract you the most?

The first thing I notice in anyone is their ability to laugh at life especially when they are in their "golden years". The next thing is, can they hold an intelligent conversation on something besides sports, illness,or grandkids? I enjoy folks who are a little eccentric, who have hobbies that require thought and effort not just collecting stuff. I think that no matter what your limitations are, you should continue to give back to society to the best of your abilities as long as you can. Shalom, Adoniah

You make a very good point. No doubt this is a very important thing to woman because almost all ask that question first. What do you do to keep busy?

I'm 58, so I'd like to put my .02 cents in lol. It's what's in the heart that counts for the most of us I think: kindness, a good sense of humor, a genuine smile that lights up the eyes, etc. Confidence, in my opinion, means a great deal too. And by confidence, I don't mean overbearing in personality or boastful, I mean confident in who they are and what they do. If one can't be confident in themselves, how can they ever expect their lady to be confident in them?! Also trust: actions speak louder than words, a guy has to mean what they say, say what they mean, and follow through and do what they say they're going to do, otherwise everything else is a moot point. As far as appearance, one cannot say that it doesn't count at all, unless you're just talking about handsomeness. Handsome is in the eye of the beholder anyways, if you know what I mean. (Example, if I may...I've known lots of beautiful women who's significant other was no great shakes in the looks department, but their personality is what sold them in being interested in the first place.) Also, with appearance, I've had online dates that showed up in the grungiest outfits...I think most of us women would like to meet somebody who they knew at least took a shower and spruced up a little bit to meet us. I'm not talking about expensive designer clothes, just neat and clean and don't look like they've been slept in for a week lol. Eh...like I said...just my .02 lol. It'll be interesting to read the other posts.

I have waited a month so I would say your two cents are the final word. But a very good word indeed. If only most men would take this to heart. I have heard from many women this age that it is very hard indeed to find a man that keeps their attention. How a man presents himself is a true refection of how he sees himself and the value he places in the woman he meets. Thank you for your answer.

I am not 60 or even 50 but I think that there is always something that is attractive about a man at any age. And it is always something different with each man. With one , it is his face, with another it is his voice. young or old, there is always something.

When we reach that age, I think it's hard to pretend, to cover things that you're still young and pretty. But for me it's how you carry yourself, how you speak or how you deal people with, and the most attracted personality to show when you're at that age is that you remain sweet and nice. It's not the outside character but the inner part of it.
