Author Zammo25 Posted July 12, 2013 Author Share Posted July 12, 2013 Thanks for some kind words. I am a decent bloke but have accepted life on my own now and will live life on my own and make the best fist of it I can. I don't want to meet another Woman now as I know it would inevitably crash and burn in time so will not put myself through that again. I am DONE now but I hope you can all make your hopes and dreams come true. Link to post Share on other sites
maybetomorrow Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Just to add to worldgonewrong’s post, I too have experienced the heartbreak and trauma of going through a separation. Around 2 ½ years ago my relationship of 25 years finished in lies, deceit and manipulation. My ex set up home with another woman and my family had flown the nest. I was utterly bereft and even contemplated suicide. I followed the advice on this forum and kept myself as busy as possible - including exercise. I lost a lot of weight, became the fittest I’d been for many years and physically I felt better about myself. Mentally, I recognised I needed help and went to a counsellor. Things weren’t easy and it took time, but eventually I began to see myself and my future in a more positive light I’m now due to get married later this year at the ripe old age of 49! So, while I agree that it can be more difficult to start over again when you are older, it is not impossible. How you proceed from here is really up to you.... 4 Link to post Share on other sites
mtnbiker3000 Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 It's all about perception. How do you perceive things??? Because there is nothing else... Link to post Share on other sites
Frank13 Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Do you realize how idiotic you sound?? As guys we actually have an advantage at this age,,,Its easier for men than women to keep active and fit later in life..Many women view men at this age as highly desirable.. We are smarter, more financially secure and, if we take good care of ourselves we can easily maintain a youthful appearance...One of my good friends is in his late 60's...His wife passed away years ago from cancer..he has been regularly dating attractive women in their 40s,, he still works out regularly and runs a successful company. You think he gives a flying fck that he is 69 years old? TFY I will ignore your insult since it is those who know they have lost a debate who are the ones that resort to insults. I love when people say how someone old is dating so many women, yet they can't keep any of them. That's why they date so many. If you actually talked to the guy, of course he would tell you that he cares he is 69. The only reason he is getting younger women to date him is because he owns his own business so has money. Once they get what they want of his money, they move on to younger guys. Link to post Share on other sites
Frank13 Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 I'm 33 and pretty attractive. I dated a 48 yo guy who had the most dynamic personality, fascinating guy. His age, if anything, only added to his charm, because I didn't have to explain shyte to him. He was and is a handful, so I left before I got my wings burnt too badly . I can tell you that, one special guy. Age is an issue if you let it be one. And also it's another cliche, confidence is everything. I don't mean the make believe stuff, I mean the real thing... that's what's making the ladies lust... just my 2 cents, of course. What the heck does "got my wings burnt to badly" mean? This is just another example of "yeah, the guy was cool, but way too old for me so I dumped him". If he had been your age I bet you wouldn't have worried about getting your wings burnt.

All I will say is that you are wrong..he could settle with any of them..he is the one that moves on, not them..he just wants to live his life and not be tied down..When they start getting too pushy or want too much of his time, he bails..He is a good looking man that could pass for 50 rather than almost 70.. Look, there is nothing to debate..You and your other buddy just choose to think your life is over at 50..Everyone else disagrees. Do you see the pattern here?? TFY Link to post Share on other sites
adelia Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 This is just my two cents not siding with anyone but from what I've seen it's a lot easier for older men to maintain a love life than older women. It doesn't seem fair but it's the way nature made us. That said when I'm 50 I will never give up on sex or love I'll find me a man in his 80s jk lol I have found men in their 50s very sexy and I'm in my 30s and not because of wealth. Tgeyre just more experienced, mature and know how to treat a woman. That of course isn't every man in his 50s but a few I've met Link to post Share on other sites

I've seen some men in their 50s who have let themselves go and women in their 50s who are very athletic and could kick my butt. It really depends on the person and how well they take care of themselves but in society there's always been that rule that it's more ok for an older man to be with a younger woman than an older woman with a younger man. Men in their 50s it seems to be potbellies that are a problem and there's no bra for that lol Link to post Share on other sites
