Men in your 50s, do you find women in their 50s attractive?

Lots of delusional males on this thread...and I thought middle aged women were crazy

There is no comparision of a 50yo to my 27yo Thai sex machine GF. No comparison. I gave up everyday sex for so many years staying with my XW.

There is that word again, delusional. And I'll guess that you are a married woman. I don't think you understand the meaning of the word, delusional. When I relate my experiences, as some of the other guys are later in this thread, of dating younger woman, we aren't being delusional. We are telling you how it is out there in the dating world. The real one we are involved with. Not the one you imagine or have no idea about and not the dating world as you think it exists where no older man can find a younger woman who isn't damaged. You see, THAT is delusional.

As did I my friend. Never again. You only have to read this board to know how many married women will happily stop participating like they used to once in their 50s. That's fine, you make your own choices. I choose to be with younger woman. I deserve it.

Having written this I guess this thread is about women over fifty but frankly if you are willing to date divorced men with kids there seems to be plenty of availability.

I just turned 48 and my only child is 20 and away at college. I would much, much prefer to date a 60 plus guy whose kids are grown than another 50 year old who still has kids that live with him most or all of the time.

And I'm the 61 year old guy who dates women in their 40s. Some with children but not toddlers, some who never had children (I don't get along as well with them). They typically have older teens or young adults maybe still living with them while mine are long out of the house. They are looking for a good relationship with a man who has time to devote to her and isn't looking for her mother his children, or deal with XW issues. At the same time, she isn't looking for a new daddy for her kids, or another guy to marry and support them while she quits working. It's more of a real relationship than most I read about here.

On Match and OKCupid. Date twice a week. I won't even consider women over 35. And my pipeline is full.

The idea of dating a 50 year old (or older??) is a nonstarter.

You are the same as me when I was your age but I'm not as fit, tall, or successful and would date a bit older than your limit, but still always younger. Into my 50s, I dated older 40s and the spread in age just increased. I got older, they didn't.

Are you sure you aren't delusional because I've read that we are delusional about 5 times now in this thread.

Good luck with that.

He's already having good luck and if that date doesn't work out, I'm sure he can find plenty more. Unless you're a man in this local dating scene, you really have no idea.

If DH and I were no longer together, more than likely, I wouldn't date 60+ yr olds, and based on most posts by women in their 40's on this thread, neither would most other 40 something year olds. It's amazing how deluded some 60 yr old men are. Very sad. And I'm not bitter either. I'm quite happy with my DH and hope to god we stay together till the end because I shudder at the thought of going back into the dating pool.

Fixed that first bolded word for you. Again, the men here who are actively dating younger women are NOT the ones who are deluded. They are just telling their stories just as I am (the 61 YO guy). It deluded all unless you think I'm totally making this up. If so, call me a liar, not deluded. It's your beliefs of how the dating world works for men that does not recognize reality.

You are not dating and only think you know what you would do if you found yourself, at 47, back in the dating pool. The same as the other women, all married and NOT dating, who agree with you. Either way, it doesn't matter what you would do. Maybe you would only date much younger guys after trying a few your age. Who knows but OK, I believe you. You would never date a guy my age. Yet, us guys have not problem finding younger women who will date older and we've told you that. The small sampling of married women in this thread, many who haven't dated in over 10-20 years, means nothing compared to the reality of actual dating as some of us have related to you.

HAHA!! I'm 48. I am DYING. This is hilarious. I feel like a runaway truck flying the mountain!

One nice thing about the aging process is that ugly people get to have the last laugh. Whatever natural beauty existed when you were young is irrelevant when you are in your 50s. After a certain age, looks are mostly about being "well-maintained." In fact, "rugged" faces tend to age better than "pretty" faces. Someone who was plain when they were young can be the Belle of the Ball when they are older (the over 50s ball) simply because their better-looking peers have mostly hit the wall by then.

I. AM. DYING. LAUGHING.

THANK YOU!!!

45 yr old female....it's great that you as a 61 yr old male can find the younger women to date that you want. There is a lid for every pot. I wouldn't want to date someone in their 60s. Obviously other women feel differently. That's the great thing though....everyone gets to decide for themselves what works for them.

I assumed once women hit 40-45 they are done with sex.

OMG! HAHAHAHA!!!!!!!

It's not so much about chronological ages anymore. A 60-something man can look ten years younger and have youthful attributes like working out and hiking.

I mean, you realize that the women who date you either want your money, or want your career success, and when they tell you you're hot and a god lover, they're, um lying? And you're okay with that? Don't you have any pride at all?

The ones who don't just want your money are seriously f*d up gals with major daddy issues. How would you feel if your 20-something daughter brought a 60 year old home for the holidays? If that doesn't bother you -if the thought of sleeping with someone young enough to be your daughter doesn't bother you - you are one seriously sleazy guy.

Women of all ages just want our money or career success. That being true, we might as well go for young, hot, and fertile.

Older women are seriously effed up, just in different ways than younger ones. That being true, we might as well go for young, hot, and fertile.

The dick wants what it wants. And what it wants - is young, hot, and fertile. If that bothers you, that's your problem.

Since we have established that women go for our money and career success, our looks are beside the point. Sorry older ladies!
