I really am. But it isn't easy. All of you over 30 or so tell me what you think of this approach:
I've also got kids to raise, a demanding profession, an ex and all that goes with it. I make enough money to buy what I want, though my happiness doesn't come from money. I meet a lot of women in my town but none who can keep up. If you are female, over 30, in decent emotional and physical shape, live in a great city - NY, Chicago, SF, others will do - I would love to come visit a lot. I'll show you a great time, make you laugh, listen to you, take you dancing, fix the broken thing in your house, stay in touch with you all the time, give you love, affection. emotional support and a listening ear. If you are professional and busy with kids, all the better.
I'm not looking for an escort service or an affair - I really want a woman to love and who can keep up with my pace. You are busy trying to keep up, so am I. Send a message if you want.
How does that sound?

I know this is not a dating service. I am really wondering how this comes across to regular people who aren't on a dating service. I'm learning a lot here, thanks for the feedback.

In being honest, what I find faulty in the approach is that you seem aware of what many women might generally like or desire, and the focus is on offering these things in a way that comes across as sounding rather one-sided and to me, more like an agreement than a relationship.
It sounds like so much is being offered to perhaps compensate for something you worry may be difficult for a person (perhaps your profession, children, etc.).
It can also appear as though you would offer these things to anyone who accepts and meets your basic requirements, though I imagine you must want more than this.
If these are in fact things that are part of who you are naturally and what you would do, I think someone would discover these things in time and appreciate them, as well as discover any faults that make you human and not just an offer of everything pleasant. I think it has to be a natural process.
I can sympathize with the fact that it may be more difficult, taking into account age, lifestyle, children, etc. and that you seem to want someone independent to an extent who can understand your circumstance and with whom you could possibly find companionship, and I don't think these things are negative. I just think if you are looking for something sincere and a deeper connection, it has to be from the heart and this is rarely planned or defined ahead of time and can sometimes occur in ways or at times we may least expect.
You do seem to have good intentions, but I wonder if what you seek is solely companionship, and whether that would be enough for you, or whether you want love. If you hope for a relationship filled with the latter, I feel it should be about mutual feelings and actions, and should be real.
Best of luck to you.

sounds like your very desperate and i think its sad, and by the way yahoo questions is not an online dating service, so take your a$$ else where, maybe a club or bar.

This really isn't a dating service, maybe you should contact one.
