I am a newly divorced single woman over We got married, we had kids, we grew apart. We have been divorced for 2 years and although it saddens me that my family has been broken apart, I am happy that my ex and I have have managed to be civil enough to make it okay for the kids. What I find most interesting at this point is the whole dating scene. There is such a difference between what is available for men and woman. Here is what I have found:. For single men the options are plentiful. We have all heard about how easy it is for a man to start dating in his fifties and how there are plenty of women to choose from. Their desire to be with men years their senior means they are looking for someone to take care of them both financially and personally. Be cautious men, these women are looking for you to do it all over again and that means house and children. They are raising small kids and are looking for someone to be a partner. Yes they do want you to help raise their kids and do it all over again. If you have money, well that just makes you more attractive. They know who they are and why their marriage failed and are looking for pure companionship. Rather they will be someone who will have realistic expectations of you and be accepting of who you are at this time of your life. They will want to grow old with you and have an age appropriate relationship with you. From my experience there are few men who are looking to date their contemporaries. The thrill and excitement of a younger woman is so compelling. Those rare gems who value women with age and experience are just that — rare! So I will wait and not settle.
Best dating sites for over 50 - whether you want a serious relationship or a short-term fling
I am confident that my soul mate is out there. Someone who will appreciate what my age and wisdom brings to the partnership. I also used a few products to help soothe and relax me while going through my Divorce. I purchased this incredible Satin Pillowcase It sounds ridiculous but there is something so luxurious about sleeping on Satin and it really reduces the wrinkles on your face! I found taking a bath in these salts to be soothing and really helped me relax and I also use this candle to help me create the mood. It is amazing what happens when you let yourself relax and do little things to help you feel like you again. Feeling good about yourself is really the most important thing, because you are probably going to be alone if you find yourself alone at We can all be positive and optimistic , but psychologists suggest practicing alternative forms of sexuality and some openly advocate partner sharing. Finding a non-sexual partner seems to be less of a problem, a lot of nice men suffer from erectile dis-function and might welcome an older partner. The most important ties to make after 50 if you are alone, are meaningful friendships. These need to be nurtured because chances are there will not be a partner to usher you into old age, and community is probably the most important aspect of successful aging. Billy G is correct.I am 62 and i hooked up with an old man friend from the past who is 64 after a few get together s i was curious to see what this old stallion was about at this age AND what a shocker he had a major erectile dysfunction that is not only embarrassing for him but for me as well. So when women over 60 wonder why its hard to find a man THEY are at a bar drinking. Most men are not interested in seeing a Doctor to get that fixed. I told my man friend to do that and he looked at me like i insulted him. Dude get that fixed if you want to have fun!! Then you get the men who are in denial with their soft performing noodle. If a man over 60 is not going to perform with a good hard on dont bother! SO the really good looking older men 50 and over with money will pay for Viagra to get a hard manhood and may seek younger women, I am attractive at 62, i like to dress colorful, i color my hair i never had kids and have been single most of my life and i love that independence. I love my own company and I love to have fun. I still listen to Led Zeppelin and Steely Dan. I am a loner because most of my friends are acting like Grandmas now and i dont have anything in common with them so i have fun traveling alone and meeting people. I go to Vegas alone 4 times a year and have a blast!! 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. Boy you described me. Een easy. And im pretty with long blonde hair.

I did find a guy this year. He knew I have a high sex drive. Said he wanted to be friends first and I bought it. Bottom line he is 58 and so broken Viagra won t work only surgery or a pump. He hide this and his tiny tiny tiny penis from me knowing all the while his secret and leading me on telling me about the great sex life we were going to have. I feel like goldilocks. Where is the happy medium lol. I live in Tigard Oregon. You made it very very clear that if a man cannot get hard then he should bother … so if it does work then why would he not go for a much younger, sexier women!?!? Lots of interesting responses. I am 58 years old and think that the reason many men seek younger woman is that the perception is that as woman get older they have less interest in sex. For us older men who still have a strong sex drive and good functioning equipment that can be frustrating. Woman need emotional connection to stay connected. Men need sexual attention to complete the connection. It sounds like several of the ladies on this site have had underperforming men. Just remember Not all older men have this problem. At 58 I go to the gym three days a week , kayak, ski, bike,hike, eat healthy and take care of myself.I am not taking any medications. I am 58 and very horny all the time but not always does it get or stay hard … after 40 ED will periodically happen and older you get the more often … women have the great advantage in that dept as you do not have to be concerned that all will work … your not being very fair. Cancer, MS or other can happen to anyone incl. Finally , if can get hard, good looking, fit , money any 58 man can get a 42 year old women why would they be interested in you and then being emasculated. Love your post Mae West, love your zest for life. Keep enjoying yourself honey, life is short xxxxx. Thank you for being yourself and giving hope for the rest if us, who are willing to stay themselves despite everything else. Do you teach classes on how to age with dignity? And with that attitude you will probably remain single. Frustrating for me who prefers to be perused but I found by waiting for that they meet someone else. Is it all about sleeping with men sooner to keep their interest and evolve into something? Would love to hear a guys opinion. I am male and dating In my 5os 54 have no sexual dysfunction and am as my female friends say a good catch.
Swipe Right®
But even though I am trying to date may own age group they all seem to be very intent on having a man who doesnt need sex. One of my women friends told me they need a connection. I wonder why. My last relationship was with someone for 17 years who died after a terminal illness. She was 8 years older than me. We had an LAT relationship and it worked very well. Fantastic sex and we never argued. It seems that this is still the way forward for me. I want to spend time with a companion, having fun and enjoying ourselves. Laughter, loyalty and honesty are a must! Where do I go to meet people? Is everything online now? David Dods is nasty. If he is looking for a woman for sex, he needs to specify in his profile, so the requirement is made clear. Men may not be able to function, and women may not want to function.So if personality is not the main thing in a relationship, the conversation needs to be had, before deciding how the relationship should develop. First, try spending time as companions, go to different situations together and see how compatible you are in that way. What does it mean? What do the men with soft members expect the women to do about it? Apparently they still feel horny, so why are they not doing something about it? Why are the women to blame? The should take responsibility and stay alone if not able to satisfy. They still remain with a man in a relationship and try to please him and hope for mutual companionship, emotional and practical support. The age thing is similar for women. In the UK, men of all ages offer serial sexual liaisons, no emotional connection or support. Some say they [also] want someone for holidays and trips. These priorities are the wrong way around. What a prize. So, as contemporary men are not offering a proper loyal partnership and companionship; it means that older women who are interested in a sexual liaison would also choose younger men. They would not choose an older man for physical attraction nor for sexual performance, nor for respect. Well I am 53 Male with no ED issues. I work out regularly and one question I get asked is my age. I do not post a lot of pictures of me but I do have an 8 pack, veins exposed everywhere and shredded. I would really like to meet someone again but my problem has nothing to do with sex or companionship but more so how I was left in the aftermath of my padt.. Got married at 22 had accumulated properties and businesses only to loose it all during a divorce in no less.
Portrait of an adulterer: secret shots of 50 married men I met on dating websites
Jumped into a LTR for 10 years and lost again. Now being so cautious and not having much to bring to the table keeps me out of the dating scene. This is my perspective. I am now Been dating for 15 years since my divorce. I have had around 6 relationships since divorce. With the exception of one woman that was close to my She, all of them are younger then me by anywhere from 8 to 25 years. Arm candy and dependency. Had I had the chance to do it all again… I would of followed a different path. As I write this I have a 25 year old model in my bed wondering how to get her out nicely. As I get really old I wonder what I am doing. I feel almost embarrassed by my choices in life. I see you dying alone and sad. But hey, look on the bright side — an SD will probably kill you before old age does. I just truly believe that sex is what bonds two people together and differentiates between a friendship and a real marriage. Its just a fact that women over 50 are not that interested in sex, as a rule. Honestly people, go to gym, workout.
Lose that 90 lbs you think is is only 15lbs and you will see that people instantly go out with you. Its just how we animals are……. Stop deluding yourself and complaing and do the hard work in life to make yourself attractive and happy person. If you lose your money these girls will disappear. Truth you speak. Looks fade away but a good woman will always be a good woman! I think half the guys come tong here are full of more crap than a week old diaper. Had a lot of failures as I tended to become, complacent and comfortable in the relationship and forget to continue to do the things I did that won her heart to begin with. It took me a long time and being single for over 13 years with only a small handful of dates in that time, to figure that out. I had all but given up when I met my wife in Nov. I was 45 amd she was Many issues lead to that, most notably the loss of my oldest son and I had anger issues in dealing with that.
Dating in later life
God love her she put up with my BS as long as she could, over 18 months before she walked. I guess God knows what He is doing after all as I was able to use that time to be alone and spent many hours reflecting on the literal hell I out her through both verbally and emotionally and during that time was able to accept my sons passing and deal with it in a more constructive manner. We got back together in Dec of and remain so. We still have our quarrels and accuse each other of not listening but in the end this far we have worked it out! As we age wisdom appears. The world we live in is constantly advertising what makes people happy and successful. It took me a very long time to stop listening to what the outside world was saying that creates happiness and listen to my heart. While going through my divorce I did not date, instead I used this time to get to know me again , my likes and needs. I am truly happy where I am with my life and if I find someone they will just add to my happiness. I feel this is a good post and it can serve as advice to many people out there going through rough situations. I picked some good facts from this post even though my situation is way opposite but there is something similar which is rediscovering ones self. Its important and has to happen.
Best dating sites for the over fifties
Thats the main problem, we men get tired with the beauty and stuff that comes with younger ladies. There will be time all you will require is a real connection and ability to work on a certain matured level of thinking and so on. Seriously I have never tried dating a younger person, never seen it as an option. I do a meetup group and because of the type of meetup I do it tends to attract younger adults than myself. From what I have found with the men in my group 40 and below is they really just want to have a conversation where there is no drama and judging. It is hard for men to be themselves I think because a few women in their past who must have raked them over the coals for something they did or said. I have been in situations where I could see the line blurring but that is where it stopped. The dilemma I am facing is I have met a nice gentleman who is 10 years my senior. He is retired, I am not. I have at least another 10 years to work which would put me at 67 before I retire. I have always pictured myself after retirement travelling around the country with my trailer for a month or two at a time. That would put this nice man at aged I really do not want to spend my retirement possibly nursing someone or leaving them behind because they cannot keep up. I think he wants more than just friends from our relationship. On another note I was reading another site that was telling its readers the ideal age difference for when dating.
These Are the Best Dating Sites for Women Over 40 — Trust Me
It went like this: Take your age, divide by 2 then add seven. So I did this and came up with 35 years old would be the ideal age of my date. I am 57 years old. I then realized I was reading an article geared towards men. Are you freaking kidding me I thought. So that would mean I as a female should be dating someone that is years old according to this article. I hope you have reconsidered women closer to your age. Fucking a 25 year old is just fucking. Sorry that happened to you. 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. I feel like when we reach 50, it is a time for change kind of a shake up time. Time to get rid of friends who do no help us in life. Maybe changing things about ourselves or changing our profession. Some people use this time of upheaval to get better like eating better or getting rid of what is not serving us. Now the other half decide to have a mid life crisis. They try to cling to their youth or they fill like they have missed out on something or they think that their spouse no longer is what they want.As weird as it sounds, try not to take what your husband did personal. Of course, it is personal but when he did that he was only thinking of himself. It had nothing to do with how pretty you are or how valuable you are but he went his base urges. Not a younger woman but in his mind a woman of more status. When she confronted him on the cheating he threw it back on her like you are fat etc. She was 52 at the time. She ended leaving him and really had no shortage of men who came her way. Right after she left him she ended up having a short fling with a 32 year old which started out as a hook up kind of thing but he ended up sort of learning some grown up skills from her. She was really embarrassed about the relationship because of the age difference but I told her know ones cares. It is remarkably common.
