Nobody gives a damn about your "confidence". What you don't have is a 20-year old body. THAT is what men want.

"unconfident" 25 >>> "confident" 55

Sorry if truth hurts.

No decent human being wants to be with a person who's going out of their way to tell middle aged women they shouldn't feel confident.

Sorry if truth hurts.

Go ahead and feel confident if you want. Just don't delude yourself that it's important to men at all.

Sorry if truth hurts.

Men love confident women. I can see why you don't

My STBX cheating wife imagines herself as a confident woman but she pines like a little girl for her former lover that she left me for. Pathetic. Based on my experiences with her I won't ever date a mid forties divorced woman with kids unless she has a really persuasive backstory. You can judge. But some of this mid forties "confident" women got that way from screwing over their families. I know. Judge away. It was my experience. I am not going to date only young thirties never married women instead of had been older women. Bitter? Yep.

I meant I am "going to date" not "not going to date". And it's going really well. Late forties law partner with cheating STBX who fancies herself all "independent."

I think most of these women have been cheated on, not the other way around. But I'm very sorry for your experience, PP.

I'm sorry that happened to you. No one deserves what you experienced. I hope things turn out well for you.

It's sad that you're so broken that you don't realize most wives don't cheat and most don't get alimony or full custody or whatever you consider screwing over their husbands. You'll screw up your next marriage a lot more marrying a younger woman who lacks self-confidence.

What is that? Sounds cheesy. Stay away from fromage.

Seriously? Why the double standard? If OP is able to hook a younger man, even for a night of fun, what's wrong with that? I am a 50 y.o male and in the last three years have been with a 24 year old, a 25 year old and a 44 year old. All were lovely. Now, I have my eyes on a beautiful blonde 43 y.o., divorced mother of three in my social circle. Every time I think about her though, I am reminded of that scene in Jerry Maguire about not "shoplifting the pootie!" Plus got to keep it all on the down low so that DW doesn't find out!

If you have $$$ and haven't lost too much hair or gained too much weight, you will do just fine. Just don't ignore any kids you might already have.

that book's author just split from the husband she met at the end of the book. but she has $$$, so that makes her a free spirit as opposed to perpetually unhappy.

Or to quote Megan's mom from Mad Men -- we don't all get to be a ballerina.

Late 40s? Universally dried up. Sorry, ladies. BTDT LOL

Early 30s woman here. I find you ladies inspiring. My mom made me look forward to my 40s for years. Seemed like she was having the time of her life!

The thought of some cougar preying on younger men just to get their rocks off just skeeves me out! I mean, my brother got all sorts of sh*t for his May - September relationship. He was 43 and his then girlfriend was 27 and many of the women we know: a) badmouthed him; and b) badmouthed her. Personally, I think it was just jealousy that he was able to find a woman, although not within his so-called peer group, who loved and appreciated him and that she had taken an otherwise available man off the market for their divorced, sorry asses.
