Teri Hatcher doesn't find dating "fun" anymore.
The 59-year-old actress - who has daughter Emerson, 27, with ex-husband Jon Tenney and prior to that was briefly married to Marcus Leithold in the 1980s - is thought to have been single for a number of years and has now found that romantic encounters do not feel like they used to.
Speaking on US talk show 'Sherri', she said: "People would say, ‘Are you dating?’ and I'd say, ‘Well I don't date much anymore because I used to date, and you'd look across the table at the guy and you'd think, 'Okay, I wonder if we're gonna end up in bed together,' and now I look across the table and I just think: when am I gonna have to change this guy's diapers?"
But the former 'Desperate Housewives' star - who will celebrate her milestone 60th birthday on December 8 - is still "grateful" to be getting older and has finally found "acceptance" in this part of her life after years of being "hard" on herself in the past.
She said: "There's only one way to feel about aging and that's grateful. Every day above ground is a gift, so I do look at it with a lot of gratitude.
"I'm so tongue-tied about it because it's that balance of you want to just continue to be the best you can every day, but also there's a lot of acceptance that comes with it, and that is just grace. "I feel like when we're young, we're so hard on ourselves, and I feel like the expectation of it to be something other than what it is is lessons, and it's really nice."
