It wasn't the kind of attention that she wanted. You are right about one thing - very few Colombianos can afford to get serious with a woman who has kids no matter how attractive she is.

If you are looking for a Latina who is 30+, attractive, and CHILDLESS, you may have a long wait. Most Latinas above the age of 25 have a child or two. But I agree with you- It would be more wise to choose an older, more mature lady if you are looking for a long term relationship. The chances of the relationship standing the test of time would be better in my opinion.

It depends on where you are looking. I have met several(as in 10 or more) in the past several months that are between 30-39, all really attractive , all with good jobs. Most drive there own car and live in there own apartment.Many have Visas to the US. But they are not in Cali, they are in Bogota, Caracas, Lima and Sao Palo. If you concentrate on just a city like cali, the the odds are not too good to find an older lady without children, but if you broaden your search to more cosmopolitan cities , then you have a better chance. I have to disagree somewhat with calipro in that older women are more desperate. I have not found this to be the case. They are more into there profession, this is true, but the same theme seems to be there with the older women as with a lot of the 23-28 ladies--THEY DO NOT WANT A LATIN MAN FOR THERE HUSBAND !. Me personaly, i will not look for a woman under the age of 26. I might go Rumber with a young one, but to have a decent relationship, the young ones do not have the qualities i am looking for. Anybody can get a young hottie if you got some bucks, it is meeting and keeping the better educated ladies that you will find as a big challenge. I also do not see the older ones as much of a scam artist as the younger ones. Maybe they did when they were younger, but with age comes maturity. Not all are saints, some are prone to scams, but so are many AW.

I don't really understand what the question is here. I mean, unless you are in your 30's then why wouldn't us men in our 40's 50's date/marry a woman in her 30's if she's "got it"? you can bet they are more mature "upstairs" my friend. Having a young, extra-hot, extra firm bride can get boring if she has nada decir, believe me.

Thanks for all the nice comments. I wasn't fishing for them but they're great to hear anyway. Just hope you keep some of the older ladies in mind! One thing about my wife, she is always smiling and happy and yes, she is very trustworthy. What you see is what you get.

So that is the Utopia Cowgirl...

Nice job! She is a good looking girl. I would go for a girl mid 30's with no problems at all. One of my draw backs is that I am not where I want to be in life right now. I would think a girl in her mid 30's would want a little more and I am still working on it. I am set emotionally and ready to settle, it's the housing situation that I am talking about. (Right now I am in an apartment, for the next couple of years) It's a nice complex with pool, jaquzzi's tennis courts, tennis lessons included, etc..., but I would think that a girl 30+ would want something more stable like a house. Maybe it is just my experience here?

Another thing is that I look young. Yeah all you guys say it, but I really do. I am guessed at 27 most of the time. It runs in my family. My Mom and Dad are in their 60's without gray hair. My grandpa didn't get any gray until his late 70's. I have many relatives that live to be 100+.  I go for girls 26-29. My logic is that they may be able to settle for an apartment for 2-3 years much easier, but again that is only from my experience here. Another concern that I have is that if I go for an older girl I would like to know that she is standing the test of time too, so that is why I am in the late 20's range. It's not all about the physical to me, but it plays a partial role. I know where my league is and I think it is important to stay there. The girls I talk to there are the ones that are physically in my league here, except with the personality, and values that I can't find here. I think it is important to stay in one's range here.
For example, if you date 4's here and stay in 4's there, then it is automatically a step up when compared to a 4 here. The grass will continually look greener for the undecided.

Pete and ChrisF have nice looking girls too. I would think that any guy mid 40's + would hop on this type of girl like they have, but I guess if you are in this because you never got a decent looking girl in your life here in the States, then you may be persuaded to go for a young one. Let's face it, there are a lot of dorks in this game. Before anyone starts flaming me, I know that some people just click regardless of age. I know it happens, but we also have some of you pastey, milk toast dudes out there (maybe not here, but I have seen this type) and that is what I am refering to. Without a doubt, someone will take these dude's girls when they get here if they go out of their league.

Well, I orginally started this post just to say that it was cool to see UC's wife and pay him a compliment and now I am typing away. My point is: Balance the big head with the little one.

On that note, I will jet...

I concur about the housing thing primarily. I missed a chance to buy a house at an opportune time at a steal, about 6 years ago, but being a single guy, I thought it made no sense to do it at the time.(dumb move) Now with California's housing costs, it is cheaper to just rent in some places. I too wonder do Latinas value homeownership as being more stable, moreso than one's profession. I will never do anything more than rent for my remaining time in California, even when I finish school, and am making the serious dough. I just don't see the economics working out in my favor. However should I come across a good deal and I am in the position to take advantage, then I will. But for my future wife, it will either be a condo,townhome,or a reasonable single family home, rental of course.
