[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Never married, fit, older woman who is fine with her marital status . . . the hardest thing to find is a divorced person to date who is not bitter.

I want much more than being FWB, it would even be nice to share the same space one day (NOT NOW) but I am not looking for you to take care of me financially, or be a father to my child.

I want to enjoy you, for you. I wish men could see this but it is hard breaking through old stereotypes.

And the funniest comments that I hear are about wanting a man's retirement. Really? Do you think I am going to bend over backward to get a half of the half of your retirement that you are getting after your divorce?

Hey, I'm a divorced older man. Just like you,
- I am fine being single
- I have trouble finding a divorced person to date who isn't bitter and obsessed with their ex
- I want more than FWB but I don't want you to cook / clean / be a "caretaker" (whatever the hell that means) or a step-mom to my kids
- I want to enjoy you for you

"Really? Do you think I am going to bend over backward to get a half of the half of your retirement that you are getting after your divorce?"

She did not get half my retirement. That's why I have to be very careful not to wife up someone who - unlike myself or XW - does not have significant retirement assets. I wouldn't take it for granted that anyone does.

And oh by the way, if XW had gotten half, then the "half the remaining half" that would be at risk in a second marriage would still be a shitload of money (on the order of $400k). I would hate to give that up and I would not want to give any woman a legal claim to it.[/quote]
