[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m 42 and my filters are 37-49. I strongly prefer men within 3 years of my age, either way, and all of my lifelong relationships have fallen with that range. I’m retiring at 50 and fit relative to my peers, and would also like to avoid being homebound due to an aging spouse. My only kid goes off to college in a couple of years. I basically target divorced dads in a similar stage of life.

Divorced dads will have much younger kids than you. I’m 47 yo empty nester and most men in their 40s have kids in primary and middle school. Realistically professional men become empty nesters by mid 50s.
It’s a trade off between dating someone who is almost never available on weekends and an older man in his mid 50s. 
I find it very problematic dating men jn 40-50s, so I do get it when women just go for younger single men hookups . Divorced older men with kids still at home don’t have much to offer and no time to build a relationship[/quote]

+1. Also 47 but my kids are 11 and 13. My ex-husband is almost 52 and he will not be an empty nester until he is 60. Men in their 40s usually have a little kids or middle school kids. They’re not divorced empty-nesters. [/quote]

PP here who is 42. I don't mind younger (or older kids), as long as they're roughly ages 8 and above. I've tended to attract more ex-military, defense contracting types and fortunately those guys often married and had kids younger as well. I have relatively young parents, so I've never been attracted to older men at any age.[/quote]
