A friend just got married to someone 15 year younger who was looking forward to get a green card and have a luxurious life.

He had a heart attack with months and during testing for a cardiac bypass, they found liver cancer. She seems puzzled about becoming a caregiver or getting divorce.

No one wants to spend the last 15 of their remaining good years taking care of someone who will not take care of them, either personally or financially. If you’re not going to be there in person AND you’re not going to leave money for that eventual purpose, you are simply mining a younger woman for resources you will never repay. It’s different if you’re married and the remaining spouse has the remaining joint assets to provide for them.

Kind of ironic, coming from a gold digger.

It’s not golddigging to refuse to provide caretaking to someone who won’t return the act in any form.

Who refused “any form”?

DP— what form do you propose if time travel is out of the question? He’s not caring for her in her old age (men statistically don’t even care for their spouses when they fall seriously ill), so if he is not contributing resources to do so, what are you suggesting he brings to the table?

According to this study, it's true that men are much more likely to leave their ill spouse than women do. Nevertheless, the overwhelming majority of men stay with their wives when they are sick. From the same study "The rate when the woman was the patient was 20.8 percent compared to 2.9 percent when the man was the patient." So roughly 80% of men stay with their wives when they are sick. THis is not as good as what women do, but you're wrong to interpret this as "men will not take care of their wives." 4 out of 5 husbands take care of their wives when they are sick.

“Not leaving” is not the same thing as “taking care of.”

I bet you think you're a nice, intelligent person?

I'm 50s. So far in post-divorce life, I've had 5 or 6 gfs who were in their 20s. None of them have asked for anything other than my time.

If you want to date for a relationship, it works best if you match with women with a similar background (if you have kids in high school and college, stick with women who have kids the same age.)

If you are just in it for an FWB (or for NSA sex), it is even better. Many divorced women are DTF and are not looking for a relationship with you or anyone else.

One bit of advice about this, I made a significant mistake in my first FWB relationship. I thought she (my FWB) wanted to hold hands, cuddle, etc. before and after sex so I would do so with her. I came to find out she only did it because she thought I needed it. She was okay with meeting up just for sex and did not need anyone to hold her hand.

She was busy as a single mom working a demanding professional job. She also did not need expensive dinners or trips. Instead, she wanted a clean, attentive, and adventurous lover.

I had to cut my FWB loose b/c he wanted to get dinner, go to the movies, spend the weekend together. That’s all well and good but I wasn’t looking for a relationship. Sad to see him go but we wanted different things.

Why on earth would you want a 50+ yo man for a FWB situation? I’d see men in their late twenties to thirties personally.

Not sure why would I date a 50+ man in my 40s unless he's into remarrying/long term partnership with cohabitation and merging finances/certain guarantees for me

Why do you want remarriage plus merging finances and "certain guarantees"? If you've already had kids and you have a career, what do you need marriage and financial merge and "guarantees" for?

And what does he get in exchange for providing merged finances and "guarantees" to you? Is your p*ssy really that great?

Whether you’re divorced, single, etc. What is it like for you? As easy to find younger women as many seem to say it is? Or is it a challenge?

OP - Please tell us why you seek a "younger" woman. How much younger? I am in my min-50s, and the youngest I dated was in her 30s. She was great but was looking for something different (she wanted a serious, exclusive relationship).

I found that women my age (from the mid-40s to mid-60s) are more likely to be looking for the same thing I am (i.e. a great FWB who I enjoy when we can get together.) I am divorced with adult children (the youngest is in grad school) and have the most fun with women in the same boat. Bottom line: This group provides way more fun and fewer problems than the other groups.

One final suggestion: try women five to ten older. Tons of beautiful women in this group and they can be very fun with very little baggage.

Whether you’re divorced, single, etc. What is it like for you? As easy to find younger women as many seem to say it is? Or is it a challenge?
