A nubile bride is hard- ly an elixir when you're pack- ing a middle-aged paunch. Older women are more realis- tic. Yes, they've known failed re- lationships. Who of us that has risked, has not? But in failure's wake comes wisdom. Women who have taken their lumps have shed the Great Expecta- tions that doom many young couples. Older women can better ap- preciate a good man. This is es- pecially true of a woman whose clock will soon strike 30, 40 or 50. There's nothing like a mile- stone to inspire a woman to re- flect on the qualities that truly matter: decency and intimacy. With the above points firmly in mind, you may find it in- structive to learn how single women feel about older men: Women prefer mates they won't have to bury. As Sally told Harry, you do the arithmetic. Quality women want peers, not father figures. When they see a man habitually dating down, words like "immature" come saking tradition in favor of an evergrowing pool of younger men who are caring and re- freshingly open. With luck, these sobering facts have inspired you to see the light. Open your eyes, and you'll dis- cover hundreds of Rachels and Rebeccas, singular Daughters of Israel in midlife prime, looking to share their experience, their love, and their lives with mature men their own age. So grow up. Toss that Dixie cup, and explore the seasoned charms of a woman of your own vintage, or even riper. Should you prove husband enough for her, she'll be all the wife you need. ❑ LOCAL NEWS Imm to mind.

James M. Dr ale 535.8233 a man who, at 40, has never married. "I'll date a bachelor who's over 40," says an attrac- tive divorcee, "but I can't imag- ine marrying one." Her concerns are well-found- ed. According to research pre- sented in August at the American Psychological Associ- ation, many bachelors over 40 are at risk for serious psycho- logical problems. Two-thirds say they intend to tie the knot some- day. Yet of all never-married men over 40, fewer than one in eight ever does. The bachelors studied tended to have "distort- ed views of the world." And ponder the revolution in women's choice that's quietly been shifting the odds in their favor: More than 30 percent of women of age 25 and older now marry men younger than they.
