You are uncomfortable with aging, clearly.


I do not look 45. Read my logical reasons. There is no reason to date much older unless a woman has to. There is no reason to date older than my age. I do not want or need a man’s money. That is the typical reason women date older. An older man would complicate my life logistically. No reason to deal with that when I have options of people a few years younger who would I not complicate my life with kids schedules.



You have issues with aging and each reply proves that.


I don’t think you can read.


I think you have a blind spot. Your every post is how young you are and anyone over 45 is decrepit.


I never said that. I said I can date younger without dealing with other’s kids. It is easier. Also, most women traditionally date older due to money. I don’t need a man’s money. I can date my age or younger because I have that option and it is easier. I never said over 45 is decrepit. You are projecting your own issues.


Pretty sure men in their 30s have kids and some men in their 40s and 50s don't. You flat out said you wouldn't date anyone even 2 years older than you.
And you have no idea why most women do anything.
You have issues. Two of your issues are ageism and misogyny.


I an not dating men with children when I don’t have to. Men 45 and older have kids. Many, many late 30s/early 40s men don’t have kids—this is not 20 urea’s ago. You can’t read. My reasons are logical. I am not dealing with someone else’s kids. I date men without kids/ my issue is kids and logistics. That is the reason I date up to 45 (and ED can be a issue). Almost everyone 45 and up has kids. You don’t get it. And yes, traditionally, historical speaking, women mate older for financial reasons and a lot of this still exists.

I think you won't feel the age difference too much now, but you will definitely feel it in 10 years and beyond.

+1. I’m 39 and trying to wrap my head around being attracted to a 58 year old man. That’s a grandpa. I’m worried about attraction to my husband when he reaches that age (he’s also 39) but I’m hoping the love we have now will carry us through.


That's my age and I am at least a decade away from being a grandfather. But I take your point--I will never, ever date a grandmother.

YES! If you and he are that serious think about how much care he will need when he is 80 and you are 60.

Depends if you have other options and how much $ he has.

Would you date an empty nester older than 45 yo? I am 44 yo woman nearly an empty nester. Why do you have to restrict your range to no-kids only men which excludes empty nesters ?

That's just pathetic on your part. Rush in here to criticizing op implying something is wrong with her. Meanwhile you want to drop your husband

No one said anything about you having to daye someone with kids it's just weird it's such a problem for you when a) you have kids and b) your fine with it if he's a 30 something dad.

I guess because if he's a 30 something dad his kids are more likely to be 10 or under wherease someone your age might have a child in their 20s and that would break into your delusions.

It's also weird you won't date someone who is only 3 years older than you, someone who you likely have more in common with than the 30 year old you date.

And op never mentioned money so you mentioning it just highlights your sexist and misogynistic views.

No, I would consider an empty nester. But he would have to be spectacular. My issue is mainly kids. I really don’t want to deal with anybody else’s children no matter what their age is. I won’t be able to get away with that forever but I can still get away with it now so that is my preference…no kids.

You can’t read. I do not date early 30s. I date 38-44. I don’t date dads. I date age 38-44, no kids. Men younger than 38 are too young and men older than 44 or 45 almost always have children. There is a huge number of late 40s early 40s men that do not have kids and that is my pool because my preference is no kids. I did not plan to have children quite the opposite and I’m not dealing with anybody else’s. No man I date will have nothing to do with my kids unless it gets super super serious which is highly unlikely. I won’t remarry.

Correction due to typo: there are a huge number of late 30s-early 40s men who do not have kids.

No idea about men, but this area has tons of women 38-44 without kids on Hinge.

Someone that is 58 is plenty old enough to be a grandparent. Both of my parents and all four of my grandparents had several grandchildren by that age.
