While their peers are already partnered up, mature women can find new romantic interests in younger men that have yet to make the leap. The combination of youth and a mindset still in development, make younger men an appealing choice for women looking to experience more from life. While this happiness may be found with men of any age, the younger crowd appears to be gaining ground. Back in 2003, an AARP poll found that 34% of women over 40 were dating younger men. Your profile is your opportunity to showcase your unique personality.
Pay attention to his life as a whole—not just how “perfect” he is
Someday i might hook up with a man who is like me and we can grow older together but i dont wish it or look for it life is too short wasting on the next man LOL LOL. People change as they get older, couples drift apart or one wants to go one direction and the other stays put. I’m not divorced but I can tell you that is tough to keep a marriage together for 30 plus years.

I was not looking to get divorced, but now that I am, I know it was best. She tried the murder option first, but when that failed went for the divorce. I get lonely, but am not in any hurry. I am sorry your wife didn’t value you for the man you are.
I believe in mutual support of each other. I look at how a man treats people, how much he values his family and other human beings, how attentive and caring he is towards me. Just so you know, my last relationship was with a man who was on disability and only worked part time. He wasn’t rich financially but he was the sweetest, kindest, most generous man I have ever known, both in and out of the bedroom. Women as you’ve described, I would think, are very unstable individuals.
It must be one of the reasons why I can’t find a good guy like you. Men just don’t trust women anymore, and I can’t say that I blame them, judging by the stories I’ve heard here. If you care about someone you’ll want to make them happy, and that only works if both people are invested and make an effort to do for someone other than themselves. That’s different from a casual relationship where sex is all there is. Many don’t find that type of relationship satisfying, because it does nothing for the soul, only the body.
Brig you might try dating a few men who are just a bit younger since you say you look younger. Usually how you look on the outside is how you are physically doing on the inside and we don’t all age at the same rate. Why I say just a bit younger is because sometimes, not all the time, men a bit younger are less likely to do as you say clip a woman’s wings. I not talking really young but maybe mid to late 40s or early 50s.
Ben Affleck Shares Which Of His Movies He Loved Showing His Kids The Most
I have dated a number of women many of them widows not divorced who are my contemporaries at 55 and as old ss 60. If I had a dollar for every time a woman has said to me “You’re a nice guy, and you are really great looking and smart, BUT ” I’d be richer than Gates, man. It takes two people to make a marriage work and to keep it together. I didn’t marry a bad boy or someone I can fix.
As an aside, there is a recent study that claims that women reach their peak desirability at age 18 whereas men reach their peak desirability at 50 on dating apps. She’s been single for about 8 years now. I know it’s because she’s nervous about dating (also, my brother and I try not to be SO protective of her…As hard as that is), but I know she’s lonely. It breaks my heart knowing that I can’t do anything about it. Any advice on how to cure the loneliness? She keeps very busy, but it isn’t enough.
I think it’s important that both men and women have their own friends. We all need positive support systems. Beyond that, I have not considered divorced women in my search up to now, but after reading your post I will gladly rethink that. I has just been a matter of fear really, of being compared to a prior significant partner. But I have considered widows, so that makes me a bit inconsistent, Lol. I’m attractive and height/weight proportionate, look 10 yrs younger than my age, down to earth, intelligent, funny, affectionate, and loyal.
” Now it’s more Cyndi Lauper’s Girls Just Want to Have Fun and less Etta James’s At Last. Seasoned, emotionally and socially mature, and financially stable. For her, it doesn’t matter that you’re a bit more grey than the men she’s dated in the past. She’s looking forward because she doesn’t want to look back. Previous guys were too immature for her, that’s why she’s into you.
Confirmed Bachelor – You are spot on. 75% of all divorces that occur after the age of 50 are initiated by the woman. The Men Chats internet is riddled with articles on female hypergamy. I am one of the rare “Decent Normal Women” , as you’ve put it.
Through our journeys and observations what we’ve seen and learned is that life is what you make of it. And if you fail to adapt you will die and sometimes suffer fates worse than death. I can’t think of anything sadder than having to wait to die, and then to do it alone. Life can be long when living alone, and too short to have regrets. You’re not going to find the right person right away.
Plus, I needed to process everything and there was A LOT! Had hired a private investigator, everything what I thought to be true was not. Realized what a Covert Narcissist was – no joke, certifiable. Nevertheless, dated a guy that I once dated when I was in my 20’s. Was sort of fun for about two months. Then he sent me a photo of himself nude in a rather erect position on his rocking chair.
Darmok, you would have done your wife a ig favour had you left her many years before you did. That way, you would have given her the gift of the chance to find real love in an honest relationship and you as well could have gone on with your life.
