Hogan's on George's Street has a very mixed age group. Usually a little bit older if you want to check it out. Best of luck!

I'd totally agree with the break for the border suggestion. It's full of 30somethings or "people who call" as I like to call em. Seriously,you give your number to someone over 30 and they will inevitably call,NEVER text........ Oh the sincerity of the aging!

I'm falling about laughing here at the notion of these women you all seem to know. In their thirties and deperate. Give over.
Yiz all know that women reach thier peak of sexual maturity at 36, while men do at 18? If you get the chance of a woman in her late thirties, kids, you sould go for it, you'll learn something. You'll learn a lot, in fact.

Common urban myth. That is assuming you rate sexual peak at the ability to have an orgasim which is what those ages apply to. In other words and 18 blows his load a lot easier than 30 man. That means 18 men aren't great for a 36 women but a 30 year old man suits 18 woman to 36 old women no problem.
What do you gauge your sexual peak on?

This is a ridiculous statement.

Also, a woman in her late thirties with kids is not likely to be a stunner (I'm thinking... Walrus.) And pushing those kids out will probably "loosen" things up a bit.

I'll take a sexually immature 20 year old any day.

Only because women of 18 are usually sleepin' with men of 18, who lets face it won't have the skills of a bloke of 30(in general). If you did a survey of 18 yr old women who are with 30 yr old guys I suspect the results would be a lot different.

Amen brother! You speak the truth. In general most women don't age well, plus they have that pesky biological clock ticking away... eventually they realise that Mr. Brad Pitt isn't going to come knocking for them, because he's not real and the woman is more bet down by the day.

Then, it's decision time, stay alone and keep cats or settle for any ugly/personality deficient male that comes along.

A handsome male like myself, if groomed and kept properly, can pull a 20 odd yo girl even up to 40 (and I've seen older lads do it!). Plus, we don't get periods. I'm so glad I'm a man.

Such a terrible deluded bunch of men...come on guys...Irish men the world over are know for being ugly and they generally look awful after 30....beer swilling, out of shape, not a CLUE how to talk to women...etc To me the notion of desperation is settling. I'd much rather be on my own than settle for the likes of what i come across here. I lived abroad for 10 years and was never single but since coming back here, I am not impressed by anything I have met. Any men I have gone out with while I've been in my 30's are in their 20's as they look much better at least. Guys stop deluding yourselves. I wouldn't go near a 40 year old man with a barge pole.

Yeh but only if they are decent. I'm slim and gorgous even though I'm 36. The average person I meet on a daily basis assumes I'm in my mid-20's. It would be great if we could all force ourselves to go out with Mr second best but some of us just can't do it no matter what. There are three or four men that i know i could marry if I really wanted to but i just can't do it. Unless you want kids which I'm not fussed about there's no need to settle for less than you deserve. I earn alot of money and have a great life. My advice to women...go abroad...there's so much more of a better selection. Men in many continental countries really know how to talk to women and treat her properly plus they look much better. Irish men are useless.

I am afraid thats absolute tosh, i am with Wibbs on that one. Its all down to attitude, experience and PC control lol

TBH with that attitude Joolzz it could very well be vice versa.

I like mars bars myself but I'm not over 30. My brother is though and he really likes bounty bars. I hope this helps.

That was great, I wasn't expecting it at all after all the seriousness!

Top 5 bars for pulling late 20-early 30 somethings in:

1) MacGowans Phibsboro
2) Cafe En Seine
3) Whelans Wexford St
4) Sin E
5) Hogans


Other places that are meant to be good for pullin but that are too crap to go are Coppers, Break for the Border and Flannerys...

biko

Try Front Door or Halo. Maybe Connellys.

I'll send you a photo if you like, it's not a problem - I'm not shy then you can eat your hat.

I think alot of men (well here in this forum at least) are trying to say that single women sit at home nursing cats, desperately waiting for a man (any old thing) to come their way. It boosts many insecure mens' egos to think like this but deep deep down, even the thickest of men know this is not really the situation, but it makes them feel good to fantasise that it is.

Of course some people (both men and women of all ages) are desperate to get shacked up, but others are not. Surely even those with a sliver of intelligence must recognise this fact. One of my friends is male, 37 and has three cats lol. Even though he would make a good catch, I just wouldn't go there because I do not find him attractive. To go "there" would make me desperate. I have a great job, my own home, a nice car and a property abroad. I spend free time socialising, travelling etc. If Mr Right comes along then great but otherwise I won't settle because I don't need to. It's not the 1950's - I don't have to settle or rely on a man for money, security, a good time etc and I think some (again insecure) men hate this fact. In fact I probably earn alot more than many men here lol. If I really wanted kids then I'd ask a male friend to oblige, visit the sperm bank, adopt or whatever blah blah...who cares.

The stereotypical image I have of an Irish man has sadly been confirmed here and that's unfortunate. I think Irish men (generally) have a very poor attitude to women. They talk down to them , patronise, condescend and cling to the old stereotypical image of what a woman should be like. They generally have very little respect for them. Sad but true.

Not only should this be in the Dublin forum but dragging up a 2 year-old thread and getting away with it suggests sleeping mods...

I didn't realise that.

Anyway, if you're looking for a woman go to a local pub like the Station House in Raheny and sit at the bar.

I'm 29 and guess what? I just go to whatever bar I feel like going to. And you know what else? Nobody takes any notice of what age I am!

As a consumer of Irish males I think your talking complete horse****e.
Perhaps people are winding you up because you give off attitude.

As a daughter, a friend, a work colleague and a girlfriend, I have never been treated with anything other than than the upmost of respect and kindness by Irish men.
Because if they did anything other, as the delicate little flower of Irish womanhood that I am, my claws would have them singing soprano for a month.


Ouh and I second McGowans.

I am 40(ish) but i don't go out to pubs very often (i have no friends to go out with),i like a hot whiskey to help me relax in the evening after a hard days work on the farm.

I've seen a few pubs named here so once i get the casts of my legs
i think ill take a trip into the big smoke and maybe find a lovely lady:)

Is 40(ish) to old to drink/find a lady friend in Dublin?

I second Ponster.

Joolzz, you shouldn't be wasting time digging up old thread when you could be expanding your portfolio, strutting about on the catwalk and making men suffer for whatever they did to you that made you hate them so much :rolleyes:

So, the new Wispa...:D
