Early ejaculation (like, in 2 min in), or the opposite not able to hold it up and cant take viagra because of heart conditions. All three tried to delay sex until they are "mentally ready" and "emotionally connected" to me. I had to tell that I prefer to have sex on date 5-6 as I do need sex and have physical needs that I expect my match to meet.
Why date a 10+ years younger woman if you can't perform? Date your age - a late 50s woman. So frustrating!
Why are you even trying to date older men? I don't see what's in it for you. Stay single or find someone in their mid-40s or younger.
Mid 40s men often have very young kids and I'm an empty nester so we are on different stages of life and it's complicated even to spend the weekends together. Or those who were never married are not attractive or have other hangups/security issues.
Valid. Date younger. As a woman not looking for marriage or more kids, you hold all the power in dating, so perhaps stay away from the old dudes and see if you like 30-somethings better? Just give it a try....
I don't want kids but I do want to find a long term partner which hopefully results in marriage after a few years together. I dont want to hookup with different 30s men well into my 50s. Don't thing a man who is 10 years younger would stay with me long term.

Why do you want a long-term partner and marriage? Many women our age find that the companionship of other women is preferable to men. Also, women outlive men, so if you marry someone your age or older, statistically, you're signing up to be his caretaker and then dying alone. If you invest the same amount of time into developing close friendships with other women, then you'll have a support network that is more likely to last you into your old age. You can have men for friendship and sex, but anything more is generally a losing proposition once you're in your 40s or beyond.
Another woman is not going to travel with me, attend family events, go to museums, hikes, biking, spend most weekends together. I love men, sex, male companionship. Even if this relationship lasts for 10 years, it would be still a great run. Maybe when I'm late 50s and no longer need all these things, I would be happier just being a "lady who lunches".
In my age group women are also busy with kids, work - it's not like they can devote a lot of time to friends
