[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m in the process of separating and will be 50 when the divorce is final. Was married for 25 years and have one kid in college and another about to graduate.  I hadn’t thought much about dating but probably should.  I’m 5’7 120 lbs attractive, but let’s face it, I’m middle aged.  I have a well established career that pays very well.  I would want to spend time with someone who is laid back and doesn’t get stressed out and is not into games.  Attractive, reasonably well off and within 10 years of my age.  Are my expectations realistic at this stage in life?[/quote]

OP here - I’m open to knowing what seems odd from this post. I haven’t dated in forever so any feedback is welcomed.  [/quote]

It’s a pun…

The odds are good (you’ll get a lot of date) but the goods (aka dates) are odd.

The fact is most of the guys out there are super weird, odd and gross. They want sex with no effort or commitment. The dude above is rotating a bunch of women, does not know he is disgusting and you are opening yourself to STIs.

Many have a ton of baggage. Do Some women have baggage, yes. But you don’t sound like you do.

Finding a man without baggage  it’s like finding a needle in hay stack.

As I guy in the same demographic I will say that there are many women who don’t just have ‘carryon’ baggage.  One thing other you’ll discover is that the kids can have issues that will impact the time available to do activities etc [/quote]

Oh yea thanks got reminding me of this.

Guys get super jealous of the time you spend with you adult children. Every misstep your child makes, they will let you know they’d never parent that way, or your parenting caused it. They will say you spoil them, etc and try to poison your relationship with them out of jealousy.

Your kids won’t visit when he is there.

They do the same when grandkids come. They don’t understand visiting so much.

It’s insane out there.[/quote]

NP:  OP you can see from this thread that you will need a good ‘picker’ and thick skin [/quote]
