    Single 40's hear. I've met ladies at my events. Triathlons, bike rides. I'm part of several clubs; volleyball, softball...I don't bowl or golf, sorry if that's a deal breaker LOL. I seem to have the same issue with finding the 40 something single ladies. Again all married with children and the ring finger was naked!!!! I don't do the bar scene and online dating is a bust. If you see me at the gym, say Hi, that would work. MFP is the only social media anything I do. Surprisingly, I have spoken with a few single ladies that I have connected with here.

    oh actually i read once that men who are formally incarcerated are twice as likely to marry than other men

    Cause they realize getting to hang out with their bro all the time is more fun.

    This seems like a dumb question and maybe it is but I’m having a really hard time finding single men in their 40’s. They are all married which is to be expected at that age I guess. Online dating has resulted in nothing but men lying about being married or only wanting a fling. Are there any good guys left?

    Plenty, mostly single-fathers and divorced.

    ETA: You may consider faith-based organisations like some Churches who do prioritise organising events/activities for their singles to mingle and possibly "equally-yoke."

    With the exception of Churches, I can sometimes be found at the above places. If I'm not working, studying, training, etc. Most of my "free" time is spent at the archery range.

    As to church, I believe, just don't go to churches.

    no they marry women

    the hypothesis was they want a “normal” life after getting out and marrying is part of that. but they were also more likely to abuse their future spouse so

    The last guy who took me on a date was actually a cop who had pulled me over previously. Soooo maybe do something illegal?

    I'm not putting all the 20 year old girls in the same boat but alot of them only know how to charge their phones, they twerk and they can't cook.

    This had me rolling with laughter. Click to 7:00 mins

    Sadly, I can't disagree with you, case specific of course, for some men and women of faith have had traumatic experiences for having yielded at all, stuck in loveless and/or abusive marriages.

    Proactive men like you, live your lives full to the brim, having learnt to prioritise refueling your quality of life, however its composition presents itself - maintaining consistency and commitment; The very qualities women are seeking in their pursuits of finding someone - The Ideal Lifestyle Fit.

    Girls!!!!!! Why 40s??? If you want to have fun date a guy in his 20s. Trust meeee! 25-29!

    I rather have older and wiser.

    Plus some of us older and wiser guys in our 40's can still be fun!

    If I were in the mindset to meet women they would find me at the off road park, at home working on my house, at home working on my cars, playing D&D at one of the game stores, or at home playing video games.

    I'm trying to get out more now that I'm free but haven't really been pushing that agenda. I'm even considering just having groceries delivered because I hate going to the grocery store.

    This is so true. Men around here are Parents and Divorced before the age of 25, so being in their 40s with daughters in their late teens and early 20s is the norm, always at practices - involved and committed.

    Not exactly what I meant, but maybe.
