They updated some rooms in White-Gravenor. there is tons of new construction since 1989. TONS!


But the old crap is still old and crappy. Yep a few rooms here, a sports field there. It's so very run down for the price. I literally noticed some of the exact same issues from 1989.


As someone who worked at Georgetown for a long time, I can say unequivocally that the campus is a dump. The school is notorious for under-investing in its physical plant. Sure, they put up new buildings once in a while (and have eradicated all green space except Healy Lawn in the process), but they don't maintain their facilities. Academic buildings and residences alike suffer from a myriad of plumbing, sewage, mold, and pest issues -- issues that only grow worse over time.


My kid is deciding between Georgetown and Notre Dame. Not a Catholic but coincidentally turned out that way.
Visited Georgetown and was not impressed that much.
Visiting Notre Dame in two weeks. Hope it turns out better.



I have no doubt it will. Good luck!

If you are still having great sex, you are not living separate lives.

I'm happily married but lonely, which is why I answered the ad. It hasn't been sexual or overly flirty, but I still feel guilty about it. Despite this, I don't want to quit writing because it gives me something to look forward to every day.

Everything I have posted here about my sexless marriage is sadly true...

However, I can't imagine how I'd actually do it. No one has expressed any interest in having an affair with me. I'm not overweight and try to dress nicely, but maybe I'm just too old? (43). How do people get these affairs started?


In my experience, women in their early 40s, or from about 38 on are the best candidates for cheating. You shouldn't have any trouble finding someone but time is always an issue. That said, you aren't looking to date, just spend a few hours of quality naked time. As for finding someone, you do know there are sites dedicated to this end, right?


Guy here and this is my experience. I cannot speak for the article, but I know several women bw late thirties and fifty who are itching for excitement and have gone through with it.


I am 50. I have a HS friend, a woman, who is also 50. We are not in the same area, so there's nothing between us except we talk candidly. (not explicitly, just very open). She is divorced, and said she has had affairs with three married men, one fairly seriously that is still going on. Four or five of her closest friends, also late 40/early 50s, also have been involved in affairs. Some women who feel unsatisfied still are very much interested and have a high sex drive into their 50s, and they can attract the men they want.


Sure. I find it hard to believe that she had multiple affairs in her 50’s. The sex drive stops, it takes a lot of energy(most 50 plus do not have) and people love to lie about sex and money. The women I know over 5o talk of a different dynamic. The men are in demand and the women really have to work hard.


She had the other two affairs in her late 40s, and is 50 now and has been in one for about six months. She clearly has high sex drive, still looks good and apparently has no problem finding men who are interested. I am not condoning her choices to hook up with married men but I have no reason to not believe her.


You are comparing women in their 50's who are looking for a partner and a woman in their 50's who is having an affair.

Finding a man that wants to have an affair is like shooting fish in a bucket, even at 50 (gasp)... have you seen a 50 yo woman lately, they are not looking bad, not the ones I know.

Anyway, the women that respect themselves and are looking for a good loving partner... forget.about.it.

Finding scum who cheat is much easier.


No it’s hard to find men after 40. Sure you can settle for the 5% of men who will sleep with anyone, but it’s not like you will be pursued. Also sex drive just falls off a cliff. So you will have to fake it....what’s the point?


The point is that sex is one of the ways a committed relationship stays vibrant, and for many men, it's the way they most feel loved. so if it matters to you that your partner feels loved, that's a point. And men should also be doing the things that a woman wants that make her feel loved, which may have nothing to do with sex

I always liked him but never wanted to risk dating someone I worked with. But now I was intrigued even though I was definitely not someone who slept around. I hit on him soon after and the sex was amazing. We've been married 35 years and the sex is still great. Just this morning I told him that "I missed him" since he's been recovering from minor surgery. He said "I'm back" so I'm looking forward to tonight! BTW, I'm still friends with my old GF. Many years ago I was dumb enough to tell my DH what my GF had said and he said something like advertising does work. They weren't really dating, more like today's FWB, so I never felt like I stole him from her.


That is so great. How old are you now? Are you one of those rare post-menopause DWs who still has sex? 51 here and my DW could be fine never having sex again. I hear stories like yours and I get so jealous and frustrated in equal measure....


We should get together. I am a frustrated 51 year old woman...


I would love to have a FWB setup. I just have to have the guts to step out, but I need to feel alive again


Just let me know...


I will set up a name and you can do the same an DM me. Where do you live?


Northern VA. You?


Columbia in Howard County. Not so far... You really have me thinking. Stay tuned.
