All Second Wives are awesome

Yeah sure honey, whatever it takes for you not to recognize that as men move into middle age, they make a shit ton more money and generally get more attractive (outliers aside). Meanwhile you you wrinkle up and get more bitter and angry. If I were a married woman with kids and a reasonably good life I'd get very realistic about my "free market" options as compared to my husband's, and act accordingly. That might help some of you avoid the angry solitude evident in the posts of some of these old chickens.

In what world? This sounds like some serious wishful thinking on the part of a dude...

2nd wife with NOT hot husband

So you would actually choose a husband based on the important characteristic of "hotness"?

Starter wife, you are ridiculous.

Yes. Men pick their wives on the basis of hotness all the time.

Believe it or not, it's a factor for women as well.

Which is doubtless why you ended up being dumped.

You are missing the point.
I am in shape and expect the same from my wife; it's called being health to grow old together and maybe even be able to spend our retirement funds.

Money has nothing to do with health and attraction for your devoted spouse unless it was the basis of your relationship.
If I was so rich I wouldn't be posting here, now would I.

For other DW, you or DH is in denial if you accept a plump DW.
No man can honestly say I don't care that my wife is plump unless he himself is plump.

Reality check.

Of course, this happens all the time with well paid and highly educated men. It's starts with cheating and then after being caught with PYT woman, first wife drags DH thru divorce.
Your status or ideal of assortative marriage may hold true in most couples. But some men need to thrill of chase/exploration.

When we started to date exclusively, I told my PYT DW that if she ever got plump, don't expect me to stick around that's how we got together my last serious girlfriend gained weight and was ok with it. As I type, she's running on the custis trail.

Hopefully, you are not letting yourself go.

I hope your wife had a similar arrangement with you that if you ever lose your job, get an ED, become disabled or have to settle for a less powerful position, you shouldn't expect her to stick around. It's a fair trade. If you insist on her staying slim, she should insist on you staying rich.

Who says she was dumped and not vice versa?

You sound bitter.

Oh, well thats cool. If it's a health issue you'll be happy to hear that recent studies have found that the healthiest body type is a slightly "plump" BMI who works out a lot and eats healthy foods. So if anything you should tell your DW that she needs to gain a couple pounds

If money has nothing to do with it, why did you have to work "highly paid and educated men" into your first comment?

I don't believe you.

I do, however, believe you that if you were rich, you wouldn't be posting here.

Not a bit! Been married 22 years and happily so but when I see the bitchiness of women on this forum I am not a bit surprised that men choose to find someone more appreciative and easy to live with.

If women put half the effort into making their marriage work that they do in planning for the big day, you'd probably see a lot more happy marriages.

Seriously, can you blame Alec Baldwin for going for wife #2 given how Kim Basinger has aged - and especially how she looks without makeup?

And can you blame Kim for being relieved she made her own money and doesnt have to spend nights with a fat, wrinkly old man sweating and heaving on top of her, unlike her younger (broker) counterpart?

So, if I understand correctly, men make this major life decision based on idiotic factors therefore women should, too. Makes perfect sense. Equal opportunity idiots.
