[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is he single at 40? [/quote]

WTF??

You must be new to DC.  Not usual here.  Not at all.

And didn’t OP already answer this?[/quote]

Nope and I lived in LA and NYC before. It is very unusual, sorry to burst your bubble. I met my H in college, like a ton of other people. By the time I was in grad school, most of my class was in serious relationships or married. When we went to our college reunion, all the guys were taken, with 2 or 3 kids, including the gay men. The common age for the first time, college-educated father is 36 years old, and this trend includes men that have been married for a while. You are confusing the age at the time of birth with the marital age. 
If a guy is single at 40 y/o it means 1) major problems, no woman wants him long term 2) commitment issues 3) unrealistic expectations. This guy seems like a combo of 2 and 3. OP, I'd date him for another 6 to 12 months and see where this is going. Watch out for control issues and also relationship with his mom. I have two older boys and I'm astonished to see how normal moms turn into emotional, irrational monsters when the boys hit late teen years and start dating.    [/quote]
