“Don’t curse your fate, but be confident about what you have”

Not everyone marries their school sweetheart, and these days, it’s a norm to be single after the age of 30 in the United Kingdom. But how do you compete with younger guys? Well, for one, you’re more successful, mature, and established in your life after you hit the 30-year mark. And therein lies the key of how to take a negative connotation – like being older and turning it into a desirable quality. Finding good sex and beautiful women after your twenties end is as simple as knowing how to transform your weaknesses into strength. From those of us in the well-out-of-school age group, here are a few tips on how to start thinking of yourself as a successful, accomplished man and not wasting time harping on the fact that you’re no longer considered a youth.

You Have a Career and Not A Job

“Tell her about your experiences”

Life accomplishment number one: you refer to your livelihood as a “career,” rather than a “job.” Now, don’t get us wrong. We know that not all of us can be rocket scientists or prime minister, but the key here is presentation. You can be the checkout clerk at a grocery store – you just have to present it the right way. For example, while talking about your career in retail, focus on how you have invested time and energy in the company. If your livelihood is a less specialized position, like a cashier or inventory person, the best thing to do is talk about stock options and retirement. If you speak with conviction, you’re going to sound accomplished. Speak with confidence, and no woman will question your success.

Been There, Done That

“Feel confident about yourself”

The key here is: you’re over it. Over what, you ask? Over everything that’s drama. Now, whether you’re actually over stereotypically dramatic things – your ex, family issues, your own personal demons – is irrelevant. The point is to act like you’re too mature for silly, juvenile nonsense, and that you’re a man with a plan. You know what you want, and you’re not afraid to be honest about it. That’s the impression you want to give off, because she’ll respect you for it. Besides, one thing that everyone likes to do, whether they’re male or female, is complain about other people’s drama. Be cool, be calm, and state you’re drama free, and she’ll be wooed by your strong personality and maturity.

You Know What an Iron Is and How to Use It

You know what looks the best on you and how to wear it. We admit, it took us years to figure it out, but since we are over 30, we had that advantage of 3 decades to experiment. At a younger age, it’s easy to talk yourself into the notion that you can somehow fix your flaws. When it comes to wardrobe, forget about fixing flaws, and focus on what works and what doesn’t. Reaching a certain age is a reality check of what you can and can’t pull off, and simply knowing how to exploit your best features puts you ahead of the game.
