So, am I being too picky?

Since always. In the society we're living in the outside is incredibly important.
You're continuously being judged for how you look rather than what you can do. It's the way it is.
And yes, it's easy to tell someone looks don't matter, but be honest, they do. They always did and always will.

I don't see how age is important in this matter. It's obvious I'm not a twice divorced man of 38 years old.
Young and inexperienced in actual relations and merely looking for some advice from the more wise.
