It's an age range. He's saying you should be 20 to 40 years old.

Mmm....4/20 is like the national Pot holiday. On April 20th, at 4:20 in the afternoon, you are supposed to light up.

There are lots of theories about how this started/where it comes from, but it's generally accepted as a 'holiday' in certain circles.

Hope this helps,
Lily

Well I will take you as joking with me b/c I'm new in the lifestyle, but I don't think it's "my fault" for not knowing everything. 
 
I have sent him another email asking for his explanation as to why I don't fit with what he's looking for. 
 
Just for everyone and to clarify here is an excerpt from his profile and the context in which he used it:
 
"You should be 20-40 and attractive. I want to see you as a work of art that I help shape into something even more beautiful on the inside and outside."
 
I am beautiful inside and outside and I'm 40 yrs old, so I don't know what is the problem.  If I don't fit him fine but explanations as to why are always helpful in a persons growth.



Okay it sounds like he wanted someone between 20 and 40 years old.  Since you are 40 years old, it sounds like you were older than he prefered (since you literally hit his upper limit for age).

No big deal, life goes on.

There's nothing stupid about thinking that "20-40" meant "20-40, inclusive."  It's a perfectly reasonable interpretation.

Try this interpretation instead, though "I'm saying 20-40 so that I don't sound superficial, but what I really want is a hot little thing in her 20's."  I suspect that may be what he really meant.

Ok I realise that maybe it sounds as if I was being stupid an not having much intelligence but one should never assume one's complete intelligence based on one comment or question.

I am highly intelligent Hello, I graduated with a 3.8 GPA in College!

What I'm saying is that I don't feel it's right for someone to just dismiss someone for one aspect that may have transpired in conversation.

Geez, IMO he should lighten up a bit! So I may have asked a stupid ?, it in no way says I'm stupid. Didn't someone say there's no stupid ? anyway. I guess not where he went. Oh, well se la vie!

Thanks everyone.


I know it will be hard, but try to think of it more like learning he wasn't right for you then you being dismissed.

How can you be dismissed from something that apparently is so shallow that this one thing in a conversation makes him dis you?

Put him on ban and ignore him if he tries to contact you again... clearly he is not right for you.

420 was originally was and still is the police code for a marijuana bust.  After that it became 4:20 as the time to light up, every day....  After that, 4/20 became the self proclaimed national pot day.  Not that I know first hand. *giggle*

This would most likely mean between the ages of 20 and 40.

Why not? It doesn't matter wether it is one reason or a hundred, it means the same thing = he doesn't see you as compatable, end of story.

If the spark was there then it wouldn't matter if there was several things that needed adjusting to, it would be worth the work. If there is no spark then even one point isn't worth it because it isn't going to go anywhere.

The only stupid questions are the ones that go unasked. If you are to learn anything in life you need to be observant and seek knowledge....Never let anyone put you down for that...I applaud your ability to be confident enough of yourself to ask questions... not all are and that is where I find where the stupid people tend to hang out. (ignorance is not bliss its just not being informed so you dont really know how bad things are yet)

So you you have an opinion but you think it so harsh if someone happens to disagree with you? I didn't say you had no right to an opinion, mearly that you where wrong! (From my PoV)

From here your statement about it 'not being right' was more that you can't handle rejection (Watch your attitude girl, else your going to get a lot of practice!) rather than it being about one reason. He only gave you one reason, it might have been more, either way it doesn't matter, he decided you wheren't what he was looking for, grow up, accept it and move on!

Oh, I don't think its about being smart or not.

Rejection hurts.

Even rejection from fools and the unworthy... afterall if we knew they were fools or unworthy we wouldn't have spent any time at all. Most people need time to show who they are; when we see, we learn and move on.

But it still hurts.

I think what he was trying to say was that he would only talk to women who were desperate enough submit to him, and you didn't qualify.  Or maybe he meant you had to be in the majors for 40 years and with him for 20 years before he could trade you to another dom.  No wait.  That's major league baseball, and its 10-5.

Whenever I hear that saying it reminds me of a sign a past co-worker had in their office that said "There are no stupid questions, but there are a lot of inquisitive idiots."

Gee, where the heck did you get that from? I happen to agree with Raven and I'm sub to boot. You didn't spark any interest in the guy. Just suck it up and move on. It's his prerogative whether or not he wants to continue speaking to you or not. Obviously he decided not. I'm sure you've made that very same decision yourself  at some point...and if you haven't yet then hang around a while and you'll have PLENTY of opportunity to do so in this place
