if you're a man, how can you hide 'desperation'

desperation for the opposite sex? especially if you're a solitary male, had flings in your youth, but have never had a long term girlfriend due to mental problems and are now in your late 40s.

what can you do? i know desperation frightens women off and is not attractive so how do you hide it?

just be honest. dont be afraid to be yourself and speak your truth. if you cant be yourself then what kind of relationship would you have anyway? women are used to guys being super horny so i wouldnt worry about it.

eta- be honest but try to keep details to a minimum unless asked specifically and dont try to make yourself look bad
