re: Dating as a 40 Year Old Man, How Realistic is it?

Thanks for all the replies. I'll admit I've only gotten through about half since I headed off to work shortly after I started the thread. Great ideas though and it makes me feel more positive about the future in terms of finding a woman. I know it won't be easy and I'm definitely working on myself physically and mentally (one poster was right in that I do lack some self confidence with women and I do tend to overthink it). But I appreciate all the good advice so far.
