[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's a myth that middle-aged women are competing with women half their age in the dating market. I'm in my mid-30s, and many of my male friends have trouble finding girlfriends their age (or at all). They have good jobs and own their own homes too. The typical 50-something man, even with a good job and a house, has no chance of ending up with a woman 2-3 decades younger.

Also, maybe it's the men that I know, but none of them try to date much younger women. I tried to set up my mid-30s male friend with my late-20s friend, but both balked at the 7 year age gap.

When I was 25, anyone over 30 seemed ancient. And no, being rich does not make up for that.[/quote]

Please.  You have no idea what they are doing or who with.  If they think they have a shot with you they aren't going to tell you about your competition.[/quote]

PP here. Yes, I agree older men try go for younger women all the time. But the chances of success, even for a hook-up, is extremely low. I have had no female friends who have hooked up with an older guy, and I have heard about tons of their flings. My male friends tell me they get no dates out of online dating or one date after a year of using it and have asked me for advice, so I know for a fact they aren't dating anyone.[/quote]

Correction:  you have no friends who have told you they have ever hooked up with an older guy.

Why do so many people assume they know the secrets of other people?

Are you serious PP?

Online dating is unsuccessful for most guys, that isn't any secret.
