Going through "restart", need opinion on body and wardrobe

Trying to restart my life after 12yrs with the SO. I am at a loss to understand what women are willing to admit and what they REALLY are looking for. Not that I am going to go and change ME all that much, I need to understand where I am at I guess.

I am probably confidence depleted from playing with dating sites. I read that about every woman wants an "in shape" guy. To be fair though, I really could only feed good with someone that exercises. Not because they look great, but health is something important to me and I would like to go hiking and such WITH my SO!!!

I am 35, just under 6ft, 205, redish hair, an sort of freckled skin in places. I found that a LOT of women either want dark hair and skin or blonde hair with a tan. What I find interesting is the women I think I would make a match with (judging on previous mates when I was younger), they won't even respond. But I get contacts daily from heavier women that I am not attracted to.

I probably seem superficial now. I really do NOT like the model type (skin/bones), I prefer shapely but mostly in shape. More than anything, a real personality and smarts!!! I am smart and have what I think is a good personality.

So, I am curious, what body type do you prefer? Is there a market for a clean cut citified farm boy type that wears boots a lot and does not fit the "pretty boy" mold? I have a feeling my hair and skin screw me. Mostly because I was usually the pick AFTER there was conversation. Women would approach my **** blocking friends first only to find they were light on everything but looks.

I have a few lbs on me (working on now) but still mostly an athletic build (very athletic 10yrs ago), but probably not in my prime. Should I just stay off the market until my body is where I want it or is that asking for another dud relationship if I don't maintain a flawless bod?

On a second note, I would really like to know where a somewhat shy guy meets women? Bars get me in trouble or find trash. Proven that I must not show well online. Just about everyone I have noticed thinking "wow", they have a rock. Figures....

My type is reasonably athletic, with a life otherwise, sweet or kind, softer features, giving, and NOT a *itch! I have only dated "nice" girls. I consider myself mostly a nice guy. Probably why I am finishing last...
