[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah. My husband is 12 years older but I wouldn’t have touched him with a 10 foot pole if there was an ex-wife and kids. Don’t settle for that if you have literally any other choice.[/quote]

For the sake of a thought exercise, these are the things that I have found off putting about men under 35 (male friends, coworkers, ex boyfriends, male relatives) that I don’t see as much in men over 40:

Not being geographically settled so to speak, always leaving the idea of moving across the country on the table, leaving me wondering if this is a serious relationship worth pursuing
Being really into video games
Having overly “woke” politics (I’m quite left leaning on economic issues, but the online “woke” discourse is kind of off-putting”)
Not having a more classic or old fashioned sense of dating. I liked the way my sisters dated in the 90s: guys asked them out, they went on dates, then they were boyfriend and girlfriend. None of this ambiguous  “seeing each other” and “not being about labels”
Being too into social media and on their phones
Tastes in music and cultural references 
Goofiness and cutesiness in the bedroom. Not into that at all. [/quote]

Sounds like you know losers.  (Signed 4 year age gap in marriage)[/quote]
