Can a woman over 35 ever be a catch?

Divorced dads who doesn't want a conflict of interest should prefer a financially independent childless woman in her mid 30's.

Of course. Look at Amal and George Clooney.

Her DH is ok looking, has a mediocre career, makes less money than my friend, comes from a broken family, no siblings, does not have property, family is MC.

So you're saying your friend is not a catch?

I think it would be helpful for OP to spell out the profile of man for whom she would need to be a catch.

The answer is yes. One of my friends became single at around 36/37 after a divorce -- she is truly a catch (beautiful, brilliant with two Ivy degrees, kind and warm) and I think she was single for maybe a few months then got snapped up by a handsome surgeon. Kids at 39 and 40.

Of course she is a HUGE catch for any man. But, she ended up with a man who is mediocre for her because she had to settle at her age.

Heck yeah… When I was in my 20’s, older women were in my sweet spot.

Unfortunately humans are visual. A description of yourself would help.

maybe a man over 50 but 40 is too young to be fishing in the late thirties pond.

But if she was a catch then she didn't need to settle, right?

My wife was a huge catch at that age. I would have dated her over women 10 years younger.
