Don't worry, some girls like their blokes like that.

OP, be very grateful, some of us are nearing 40.
Since I'm a couple of years off the big 50, I can safely say, that I find most women under 30, quite narcissistic and arrogant. My daughter's friends, mostly 18 or 19 year olds, I find quite irritating and soul-less. My niece's 25 year old friends, I find quite sad. That you can spend so much time putting on makeup, and end up looking so false, is something that is lost on them. And personality wise? I want to scream.

What I have found is that once their kids get into teenage years, a proportion of mothers start to get their lives back, they start dressing stylishly, and they have a confidence that is deserved.
Whilst I wouldn't be tempted to stray, I do find many of my wife's friends almost as attractive as she is.
On the other hand, there are a few that have let themselves go, and I find that quite sad.
However, any still single by 30 will probably not be worth having. Probably the chaps too, but that's not my problem.

When I was 12, 15 year old girls were pretty amazing. But of course they weren't interested in me.

When I was 15-16, girls my age and up to 19 were good. But of course they always went for the sporty lads and the older 18-23 year olds which had cars, jobs and money.

When I was 18-22, girls 17-22 were good. But they always went for the older guys which in addition to cars (which I now had), jobs and money, had their own place to live.

When I was 23-25, girls/women 21-25 were good. I now also had a job, car, money, and my own place to live. I had waited for this. But now the girls went for student guys who had loads of free time, or older men who had more/better jobs/cars/money/place to live and were also more real men compared to the student guys.

Now I'm 27, girls/women 21-28 are good (ok, some 19s are attractive). Lower are not at the same stage in life. Older are looking for guys to possibly marry. I have more/better of what I had when I was 23-25. But I'm now too old and serious for the younger girls, and I still can't compete with the older guys for the older women. Female friends and their friends are marrying 30-35 year olds mostly.


My conclusion is that there is no best time in your life - now is the best time, the past wasn't better, and the future won't be either. At the previous stages above, I always thought "when I have/am X" then things will be better, but truth is that the main factor in it all is you yourself. You always have some value on the market; if you're not being bought then you're setting your price too high.
You appear to have a good understanding of the game.

May I suggest for increased exposure to the opposite sex.......buy a puppy.
