[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm male and have dated lots of cheaters.  In my experience, [b]over the age of 40 every woman is a cheater[/b].  [/quote]

You know the wrong kind of women. Seriously.[/quote]

Let me give you an example from a recent date which is quite typical of dating in DC:  I meet a professional woman who is over 50 and who has a high income.  She is separated from her high income husband.  I ask what happened?  Her husband has moved in with a much younger single woman.  But as we talk it turns out that my date had been carrying on a five year affair with a married man, which she broke off when she found out what her husband was doing.  My date's ex won the lottery--got rid of her, and got a younger woman who doesn't have baggage.  And yes, there are children involved.  [/quote]

PP here. As an older DCUM poster, I can appreciate your story and don't doubt it. I stand by my previous comment; for whatever reasons, you are around the wrong kind of women. I don't have one female friend who's cheated on her husband, and most have been married for 30+ years.[/quote]

I have one friend who confessed to me she cheated on her husband. I wasn't surprised by this because I have observed their marriage (she is very ambitious, he is not, but is a great solid family guy and creates stability for their kids while she chases coins). She is 50. I have told her that the husband she doesn't appreciate will be snatched up in a minute on the market if they divorce and she will likely be alone.

I would be shocked to find out my other friends had cheated on their spouses, though in one case I am pretty sure based on some comments he made to me (not flirty just very disparaging about marriage and how it's a trap and why should anyone do it) that one's husband is not faithful or is considering cheating. They don't have children so he could easily leave.

Anyway, women cheat, men cheat and but not all men and women cheat. [/quote]
