How the hell do you get from “leaving stuff to his kids” to “not caring for her in her old age”? |

Because he will, in all probability, be dead. If he’s not making financial provision for her old age, what kind of provision is he making? |
Key point being what kind of provision is he making, after having benefited from her providing care for him in his old age. If the answer is nothing, it’s pretty clear who is benefiting more from that arrangement. |
Good lord, line up financial stuff before you make a lifetime commitment. |
Why do people with so much money waste time on the DCUM board? I'd be on the beach today, instead. |
Hahahaha, OP you must be VERY new to woman-dominated DCUM if you expected "is it easy for older men to date younger women?" to get a positive response. DCUM women hate hate hate that idea.
The real answer is: who are you? Are you the kind of older man who can easily date younger women? If the answer to that is yes, you probably wouldn't even be asking it. |
I had to cut my FWB loose b/c he wanted to get dinner, go to the movies, spend the weekend together. That’s all well and good but I wasn’t looking for a relationship. Sad to see him go but we wanted different things. |
I am in my 50s. I have dated for a few years and had relationships with women older (roughly 60) all the way down to 20 years younger (34). Most women more than 20 years younger have no interest in me but some do. Most women my own age also have no interest in me but some do. The women in their 30s have tended to be idiosyncratic in some way and they really like my older and wiser demeanor. The two most serious relationships like that both involved women who were very mature (didn't like young men) and also estranged from their parents. |
Exactly. But do that and the insecure men here will call you a gold digger. No woman should seriously date an older man— and especially one with children— without a solid agreement in place. But by being responsible she gets labeled a gold digger, and by being irresponsible he gets a free nurse. |
Doesn't appear to be peer-reviewed. |

Why on earth would you want a 50+ yo man for a FWB situation? I’d see men in their late twenties to thirties personally. |
