What I want is to make a good man\u2019s life better. I have a decent life now but being wanted and needed would make me happier. I think decent men are great people and I truly enjoy their company.<\/p>\n
It may be hard for men in this age range to date, but it\u2019s also no picnic for women, especially since I have found dating sites to be a waste of time, and I don\u2019t care for the bar scene. There were so many people i know who ended up getting divorces at your age because of cheating . Mostly the male partner cheated but in some cases it was the woman.<\/p>\n
I would look at it this way, if you meet a mature, kind woman who is interested in you, don\u2019t focus on her age. Focus on what her interests are, what her values are, and how she treats people. I don\u2019t mean that you should date women who obviously are in their 20\u2019s. You can feel it when someone is mature and has lived enough of life to be compatible. I was together with my ex-husband for a total of 19 yrs, 16 yrs married. I was a loyal, caring wife believing we\u2019d be together until old age.<\/p>\n
I know several good women who have tried it for years only to get nowhere. Spring Hill Frank\u2026\u2026\u2026I am 50 and I have no interest in dating much younger than my age. I would have nothing in common with a man in his 20\u2019s or 30\u2019s. I would go a little younger than my age if I found a nice guy, but not much younger. I don\u2019t care what the articles out there say. Even though age to me is not the most important thing when considering a partner, I am not prepared to date someone young enough to be my son.<\/p>\n
Marriage is like giving your Girl a loaded gun and hoping she doesn\u2019t use it on you. I\u2019m 48, recently divorced (2 months?) after a 24 year marriage, and I am single for the first time since I was 14. I have been getting sex in some form since my early teens and living without it right now is super tough! What I\u2019m finding though is that I\u2019m able to do more for others than I ever was before. For example, I\u2019m writing this when normally I would never try and help someone out.<\/p>\n
They likely were divorced not out of need, but due to a social agenda or insecurity. Whereas a married man does not place emphasis on an aging woman\u2019s looks, when you are single, you are not thinking with the same parameters. Older women seem to have this wierd expectation and baggage that is not really reflective of the give-take, role-based relationship that men actually want. It almost always comes out right on the first date and you have to engage in this wierd fake dialog. Okay here I am, married later than the norm, had a son when I was 37, married for 22 years and found out my now ex had a penchant for VERY young stuff. Apparently, he forget he was supposed to have stopped dating when married.<\/p>\n
