[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Funniest part of this thread by far is the delusional ranting of the "first wives." Yeah sure honey, whatever it takes for you not to recognize that as men move into middle age, they make a shit ton more money and generally get more attractive (outliers aside). Meanwhile you you wrinkle up and get more bitter and angry. If I were a married woman with kids and a reasonably good life I'd get very realistic about my "free market" options as compared to my husband's, and act accordingly. That might help some of you avoid the angry solitude evident in the posts of some of these old chickens. [/quote]

I don't know too many women who had trouble landing a second husband. Thats all in your head.

Some men aren't worth keeping around, even if there are monetary dividends to reap. Misery isn't worth it. As I plan to marry at 40ish, I am grateful to his first wife. He knows where it went wrong and is trying a lot harder to be a good guy. He speaks of her fondly and I don't have any ill feelings towards her. Bless that woman for breaking him in. [/quote]

You are delusional or don't know too many single women in their forties.

It is tough to find a suitable guy because those who are available - whether never married or divorced - by the time they are in their late thirties or forties or even fifties are not interested in a woman who is in her forties. There may be exceptions but by and large it is true. Not a knock on women but the fact that men when they reach their forties and fifties are looking for a younger woman.

Now if it is a single mother with small children, the problems are compounded because many men don't want to take on the "baggage" quite apart from having to deal with step-children. These women don't have the time available to meet other men and doing so can be expensive with child care during the date, etc. Some women in their late thirties or early forties are done with having children but the men they go out with may still be looking to have kids.

Your competition - if you are in your forties - are younger women in their early thirties who may be unmarried or divorced and may not have any kids. Most guys would rather go for these women than someone who is in her forties. Even more true if the men are successful and well-off.

Where I agree with you is that some men - and some women - are not worth keeping and staying in a bad marriage just to keep it going is a poor choice.

The men worth keeping aren't dating 20 years younger, because they are looking for a partner who they can relate to on more than one level. 99.9% of the men I know were looking for a real partnership in their second marriages. Your experience may be different. [/quote]
