Peter Cook, who has a $100 million net worth, is marrying the worlds ugliest woman in her twenties. If that’s what an actual wealthy person can get there is no one on this board that is in their 50s dating someone in their twenties.

Is a 15-20 year age gap really that surprising? I know a handful of couples like this and they seem to have great relationships that have aged well.

I’m seeing a man 19 years older (me early 30s/him early 50s). Yes, he’s more emotionally available, mature, and better in bed than men my own age, but I think he’s also better at those than most other 50s men, too. It works well for us.

Unfortunately you will see a big difference in 40s (if not before). As you both age the changes and differences will become more pronounced. It will be like you are living a decade or so older than yourself. In your 50s, you will have peers with husbands in 50s having fun, enjoying life. You will be dealing with an elderly man who has been on Medicare already for 5 years. Time goes by very fast. Good luck!

This has crossed my mind. One thing going for us is that he’s very energetic and physically active- way more than any man I know that’s my own age. I also adore the guy so much that I don’t really care. I figure it’s better to have a few really great years with someone I’m madly in love with than several decades with someone I’m just meh about.

Did your mommy and daddy tell you that you were baggage? In your case, they were right.

I found that I enjoyed dating women who were mothers more than women who were not because the women who had kids could relate to being a parent. I love being a parent and seem to get along better with women who enjoyed this as well. To provide some background:

After my divorce, my teen-age daughter lived with me instead of her mom so I know what it is like to the primary custodial parent.
I never dated a woman who was more than five years younger than I am, and normally date women one or two years younger. Please know that I dated a woman who was five years older, and she was wonderful.
I wish that I would have had more than two children; however, my wife had four miscarriages between our first child and our second. After the birth of my second, we did not want to put her through another miscarriage.

54M here.

I don't care if women in their 50s have kids or not, because I only date women in their 20s and 30s.

I don't think OP was asking the age cohort that you date, only if you yourself are in your 50's and if you have kids, do you also prefer to date people with kids, or vice versa.

She asked me how I view women in their 50s.

I don't view them at all. They are invisible to me.

They are dating His money


As you are invisible to women in their 20,s and 30’s. Keep wishing grandpa!

I am female in my 30's and would rather date a man who had no kids and no interest in having any... dated someone with a kid and it was nothing but annoying drama.
