[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, what did you expect?? These single old guys have been thrown back by their wives not because they have redeeming qualities. They are defective. Stay single, join a book club, get a toy for a boyfriend. [/quote] So divorced middle age women are damaged and defective too, right?[/quote] Yes, of course, many of them are. Women are more likely to initiate divorce though, which leads to there being more undesirable men on the middle aged market.[/quote] The divorces are initiated by women who wildly overestimate their value on the dating market. Thus there are at least as many undesirable middle aged women out there, if not more.[/quote] Women don't initiate divorces because they think they'll do better. They do it because they would rather be single than stay with their ex. [/quote] Of course they think they’ll do better. They have such total contempt for their STBXH that they think they can [i]easily[/i] do better than him. This question comes up on DCUM all the time - “thinking about getting divorced, what is the dating market like?” - and other women always chime in with how they’re having lots of great sex with their terrific new boyfriends.[/quote] And men remarry because they always thing it’s the ExW fault the marriage fell apart, sex sucked etc. They repeat the same pattern of behavior in a new marriage. The only reason why it would work sometimes is a new wife too dependent on his $, or has to tolerate an old jerk for the kids, or the old jerk is too old to cheat/seek next victim and got fed up himself [/quote] And yet every single on one my male friends who divorced in their late 40s or early 50s married a prettier, nicer, younger woman and all those friends are very happy with their second marriages! [/quote] Wait till 15 year mark in those marriages. Don’t say “hop” before you jump over the cliff. [/quote] A guy in his early 50s who marries a woman in her late 30s and it “only” lasts 10-15 years is absolutely going to put that in the WIN column. No marriage is guaranteed to be permanent. An older guy already divorced knows this from bitter experience. If you might (and are likely to) get divorced anyway, might as well marry younger and hotter if you can.[/quote] Statistically these marriages might be a "success" but it's a torturous divorcing after 10-15 years with kids. I was that "young chick 2nd wife" (and still pretty young to marry a 55+ man). The divorce on 16th year of marriage was acrimonious. My exH is depressed and angry in his early 60s. He's just not coming across as a happy person because his AP slept with him for money. Women don't pick you in that age for your looks, or good sex or any good qualities except for your wallet. Nobody wants to become a loner in their elderly years, particular men. It ages them fast, they become paranoid and die earlier than married men with a stability of a family [/quote]
