There are about 6.6 billion people on Earth and more than half of that number are women. Why is it virturally impossible to find a woman to love? Why is it that at 44 suddenly a man's not worth anything to women? If I were a billionare and a mean person I would have more women in my life telling me how much they "love" me, but as an average guy making good money I'm not a desirable pick.

Why is it that its impossible to find a woman to love in this modern day society?

I expect maybe one good answer out of this question, but I also expect most people who respond will only have something hurtful to say. Oh well, it's the way of Yahoo Answers.

My answer is an honest and objective one. You'll probably lump it in with the hurtful ones, but here goes anyway.

The problem isn't with women. The problem is with your taste in women. You're not going after the kind of women who want a man like you. Yes, there are women who'd be thrilled to have someone like you, but you probably don't given them the time of day. Maybe they're not "hot" enough, or aren't young enough, or aren't of the race and/or social class that you'd like. Whatever the reason, you keep getting rejected because you're asking the wrong women.

I used to have the same problem. After my last bad relationship I had an epiphany. I needed to stop complaining about what was wrong with women and change the only person I could change -- myself. Once I changed so that what was good for me and what looked good to me were the same, I not only stopped having bad relationships but, within a year, I met the woman I married. I can't promise you that you can find love in just one year, but if you change your own outlook you can learn to be attracted to the right kind of woman. I say "right" because any woman who doesn't want what you have to offer is completely wrong for you no matter how attractive you find her. Learn to be crazy about the kind of woman who would be crazy about you and you will find love.

Impossible for you, maybe.

Your second question is misleading. My dad is 57 and he has no trouble at all with women. There's nothing special about being 44 that discredits you among females suddenly.
You basically just have an illogical, skewered view of the world and the women in it. Fix it. You're a grown man for God's sake, quit whining like a baby.

You're making excuses for yourself. Take a good, objective look at the world. There are plenty of 44 year old men who are not millionaires and do just fine with women. Hell, some of the most successful men I know with women are teachers or mechanics.
Your point is valid... if there are so many women in the world, why are YOU having so much trouble finding one?
Ever occur to you that the problem may not be the world, or society, or women, but YOU? Think about it.

Its not impossible, just very hard. You are a desirable pick to women with common sense and a very sure sense of self. Women who go for the billionaires particularly because they're billionaires are women who need to build confidence in themselves and learn that a man with big pockets doesn't make you any more of a woman because he can buy you nice things. So it is unfortunate that women are hard to find and love without having to question whether they love you or your wallet. But you can also be well off on your own.

Hey, Limits exist only in your mind.. and "negativity too (*I also expect most people who respond will only have something hurtful to say. Oh well, it's the way of Yahoo Answers)

I hope you remember that what we truly believe.. we demonstrate..." and if for you it is finding the woman to love.., why not start loving yourself first and then you'll see people loving you too :)

At 44, you may have gone through a lot, but that's the beauty of living and loving, u get to learn and unlearn, as you continue to risks and change.. right? be happy! :)

Not only do women make up something like 53 percent of the population (guys 47 percent), but there are far more men who are gay than there are women who are gay, far more men who are transsexual than there are women, far more men on death row than women etc... so the real ratio is even more heavily in favor of men.

But women are picker than they have ever been, especially after they watch shows such as the Bachelor.

6.6 billion people on Earth...but how many of them do you exchange words with every day? For me it might be 10 or so. Of those you talk to on any given day, half will be female...and fewer will be available - single and the right age. Now figure out which ones you're attracted to. Then ask how many of them will be attracted back. Is the number a tiny fraction? It would be for me.

It's really not that hard to meet someone fantastic - I have probably only really talked to 10,000 people my whole life, but I've found someone to marry (and had several girlfriends). This suggests that there could be thousands of girls I could fall for, who would love me back.

Keep looking! I'm sure there's someone waiting for you - but you have to break your routines and meet new people.

Hopefully, this one good answer will be mine. You are right. You are old(er), is no longer very appealing, and women at your age are married already or gave up on marriage or cannot get married because she lacks that something that she needs for the long term. At your age, if you are not good looking, you'd have to be rich, famous, handsome, or all of the above. ...Or else she (assuming that "she" exists) ain't gonna come your way. Therefore, you'll have to work twice as hard to improve yourself as a person. It's not fair, but there is a way. Just keep your life up, and look towards each day with a smile. Just enjoy life as what it is. If you keep yourself optimistic, you'll be more likely to find the one.

baby age has nothing to do with it. I love older men try focus on other things and let love come to you dont hunt it down or youll wont recognize it even if its in front of you. There are a lot of decent women out there.and with that 6.6 billion subtract the homosexuals bisexuals transgendered etc. etc. etc. children etc. etc. people on life support etc. etc. those that dont speak english etc. etc.
