Men who can't sustain their first marriage are losers.

I don't know too many women who had trouble landing a second husband. Thats all in your head.

Some men aren't worth keeping around, even if there are monetary dividends to reap. Misery isn't worth it. As I plan to marry at 40ish, I am grateful to his first wife. He knows where it went wrong and is trying a lot harder to be a good guy. He speaks of her fondly and I don't have any ill feelings towards her. Bless that woman for breaking him in.


What is the divorce rate for second marriages?

Not so pretty when he starts pulling the same shit on her- but she has zero options because she has no career of her own. She has no choice but to live in misery or move on to an even older a-hole.

Aging is very hard for these women. Their sole purpose is their outer shell.

Hmmm. I've never wanted to be second at anything in life. Thankfully, I met a hot, smart and successful 25-year old when I was the same age. Both our salaries went through the roof in the first 5 years of our marriage.

My DH despises non-ambitious, non-intelligent women. Pretty gold-digger proof. You can spot then a mile away.

Funniest part is the young sluts with 'gold-digging' as their life's aspiration. Highly educated first wives with a career make just as much as their husbands which is why they don't have to cling to them for dear life. You can have his sorry ass...and the reduced $ he has because he's still paying for his 'first' kids.

And really, believe what they say about what will be done to you, if they do it with you. Ask any third wife.

ALL first wives are crazy. Until the DH divorces the second wife, who makes ANYONE look sane.

ALL first wives I know are the ones with the money. So don't kid yourself too much.




All second wives don't break up families. WTF. I know we're doing glib/sarcasm, but that doesn't even make sense.

You are delusional or don't know too many single women in their forties.

It is tough to find a suitable guy because those who are available - whether never married or divorced - by the time they are in their late thirties or forties or even fifties are not interested in a woman who is in her forties. There may be exceptions but by and large it is true. Not a knock on women but the fact that men when they reach their forties and fifties are looking for a younger woman.

Now if it is a single mother with small children, the problems are compounded because many men don't want to take on the "baggage" quite apart from having to deal with step-children. These women don't have the time available to meet other men and doing so can be expensive with child care during the date, etc. Some women in their late thirties or early forties are done with having children but the men they go out with may still be looking to have kids.

Your competition - if you are in your forties - are younger women in their early thirties who may be unmarried or divorced and may not have any kids. Most guys would rather go for these women than someone who is in her forties. Even more true if the men are successful and well-off.

Where I agree with you is that some men - and some women - are not worth keeping and staying in a bad marriage just to keep it going is a poor choice.



The men worth keeping aren't dating 20 years younger, because they are looking for a partner who they can relate to on more than one level. 99.9% of the men I know were looking for a real partnership in their second marriages. Your experience may be different.

This explains the overbooked personal trainers, the explosion of Botox offices and the like in close-in Bethesda. You can truly taste the worry in the air during some of those barre, spin and Pilates-type classes in 20816.

There's no doubt in my mind that the tiny blonde 42-yr-old ponytails are NEVER too tired tonight, honey. That would kill the goose.
