seeking insight

I am a returning adult student (24 yrs old) at a private university here in Dallas. Being that the majority of women here are of the ditsy sorority type, I am stuck in mud trying to find older women to hang out with. This university does have its fair share of older women students and many of whom I have been classmates with. I have read through several discussions on here talking about the assorted hints and signals a ow omits to let a ym know that she is interested in him. I am considered to be an intelligent guy and I have had many charming discussions with beautiful, intelligent older women, but I admit to being clueless when it comes to being commonsensical about this. Do any of the older women have some helpful insights to aid a young fellow in need...:)?

careful about returning adult students, they could be married! A lot of women go back to school after marriage. Look for a ring to be safe. As for charming the ladies, are you looking for a serious long term relationship with possible marriage? or just casual dating?

Talk to people. Grab a coffee after class and chat. Try to make friends with these women. Buy ticket to interesting events and see if you can talk someone into taking your "extra ticket". Just look at it as meeting interesting people with lots more life experience than you and maybe something will bloom ......

I must keep my priorities in check. I would like to at least be within a year of graduating law school (I have 2 years left in undergrad) before considering marriage. My ambitions must come first in the time being. However, my mind is not completely closed to the idea of marriage right now. Casual dating, though, is what I am looking for. Many of the older women that I have met are married. However, in regards to the few that are available, how can I tell if they are interested? I have never been shy about making the first move, but the level of uncertainty is higher with older women...
