[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]7:29 here.  Guys I know in their 40s don't necessarily want20 yr olds, but definitely under 35. I can pass for mid thirties and they are surprised when I tell them my age, one even said he didn't realize I was that old with a frown .[/quote]

Did this guy have kids of his own? Maybe that's part of the issue?[/quote]

I'm the PP @14:40.    The first quote pretty much describes me.  I am mid-forties and look about 5-10 years younger (regularly get mistaken for such) and actually tried dating a few single women in their 20s.  It was a complete non-starter - we ran out of conversation very quickly and I felt like a creepy old fool.  Three of the women I best connected with while I was divorced were +/- 5 years of me.  That included one who was 4 years older.  Unfortunately, they were also outside of realistic childbearing years (at least without significant medical intervention; one my age found a sperm AND egg donor and got pregnant).

I think, in addition to not wanting the baggage of another man's children, many men still want to start a family, and because biology is unfair, and we can, we do pursue the option.  [/quote]
