What you’re suffering from is called Main Character Syndrome. However much you think people care about you, your choices and what you’re doing, divide that by 1,000 and then maybe you’ll start to get close.

You’re welcome.

OP here: Thank you. Good point. But at the same time, some people clearly do care about the choices made by me and men who date even younger women. Many accuse us of of beeing creepy, gross, and even predatory. My point is that some post-menapausal (older) women are (maybe subconscously) more interested in me now. Obviously the women who seem to be more interested in me are not the women who post on DCUM (even though they are professionals, well educated, progressive, upper middle class, etc.).

OP here: This may be right.

But I do remember reading a line in a book by a famous author (once worshipped, now bordering on cancelled) who said that they key to a man getting attractive women was not being attractive but being seen with other attractive women. I read the book when I was in my 20s (when I was young and immature). So this is not a new idea.

Funny that you acknowledge that people in their twenties are immature, and yet you’re in a relationship with one in your fifties.

No no. She's a Very Serious Person.

Because he is not in a relationship with a woman of any age.

So you're trying to find other attractive women? Is that what you're saying?

Was this a book that was suggested when you were in conversion therapy?

Very easy. They assume you must be rich.

A know a married couple in which the wife is 67 & the husband is 55. She is like his mommy.

Is it possible that you’re just projecting confidence and happiness? And that’s why you’re being treated with positive regard?

Just the fact that you actually posted this makes me think you are pathetic.

You know, it's not really an accomplishment to get a young girlfriend? Lots of young girls like older men – it's the unknown, their illusion of status and power. There are lots of young men who like older women. It's not some big prize. It just is. But the fact that you seem to think it makes you sexier is so lame. You probably can only get young women because someone closer to your age would see right through you.

Other women are probably asking you to do stuff more because you are probably in a good mood because you are getting laid.

They date the younger pretty women who do not have the character or patience for a man their age to make it in the world. They want the life now, like what daddy gave. They don’t want to building up years. They’re only interested in the here and now not in potential. Makes sense, but be prepared for them to take you for every penny and/or outlive and possibly abandon you when you’re older bc this pairing is 100% transactional underneath.

Gross. Just seriously gross.

Haha exactly this. I can’t believe this is not obvious to you, OP.

I have experienced that too. I have a great relationship with my daughter and people comment on it. But I promise you that nobody knows earth would think I am the father of my GF.

By the way, GF had a great relationship with her father.

Had? Let me guess, he died? Nothing to see here.
