Wow, the 'you look much younger than your age' line. That's a new one! I'm sure he's being quite sincere and isn't just trying to sleep with you (but you seem pretty gullible, so it looks like he won't have to try too hard).
DP, but pretty sure that is all that PP is looking for. She's posting on a thread about how she's done taking care of men. Isn't a younger man for something casual exactly what you want, PP?
PP here. Exactly! I’m not looking for a new husband among the mid-30s men. It would just be great to spend some active time with him outdoors and if we like each other, indoors as well. Of course I don’t look a decade younger, just good enough for my age - otherwise it’s unlikely that the much younger men would want to spend time with me even casually.

Sounds like she'll still be "taking care" of a man. This time though the man can just leave when it's over (on to the next).

I downloaded a dating app on Sunday and have been exchanging numerous messages with a 36 y.o. man yesterday and today. We are making plans to meet on Saturday and already agreed to go walking, kayaking, rock climbing, and skydiving if we like each other in person. I’m happy with my decision thus far.
Nothing wrong with that. You are divorced. Enjoy this time. It's a new beginning.

OP - I guess it’s ok but I make three times his salary. You’re one of the men on here I imagine.
I am mad at others too (my male law partners are at the top of the list) but not everyone. Though I definitely have a short fuse in general. Lots of good advice on here!
I guess you married poorly then.

That's not entirely true.
Men blame hormones when it comes to cheating on women.

My menopausal wife is really mean and condescending to me. Even sometimes when I’m just trying to make conversation with her. I’ve been a good partner for 24 years - equal (or damn close) split of household/parenting, we’ve both worked hard and have tons of money, own 9 houses outright (Historic home downtown, lake house for family and 7 rentals) when we both grew up poor, a wonderful son who’s now in college and I’m still tall, good looking and in good shape. The regular beatings really get old.

Yeah. You really should do something about this nasty attitude of yours. You sound like a real see you next Tuesday. I certainly hope you aren’t here seeking sympathy.

Some of these humorless responses are a site to behold. The couples dealing with menopause are probably old enough to understand, "lighten up, Francis!"

Hello, me. My husband is delightful. But he breathes, and chews, and moves in bed. He makes stupid jokes, lets the grass get too long before mowing, and weighs 60 pounds more than he should. He doesn't brush his teeth enough, he won't exercise, and he cooks for the whole family. He creates clutter, has big shoes, and he takes out the trash & recycling of his own volition. He won't take his own antidepressants, he still likes to have sex with me, and his breath smells bad in the morning.
As you can see it is a hopeless case and I definitely need a getaway from this horrible man and life we've created together.
Why do they breathe so LOUDLY? Mine sniffs with every inhale. I want to throat punch him. -.-
But he makes coffee and brings it to me. Washes the dogs. Still has a 6 pack. (not beer, abs!) Yes, clutter and leaves his shoes where I trip on them. But is so calm and sweet. I wish he would never eat in my earshot though....
So yeah, I feel you.
Has a 6 pack and you want to throat punch him?
Punching him in the belly might hurt her knuckles!
