Are straight women that desperate?

Two men I know are going through divorces. Within two months of separating from their wives, they have younger girlfriends (the men are both in their 50s). I’ve seen this pattern play out over and over again.

How do older, straight, divorcing men get girlfriends so quickly??

It'$ a complete my$tery, OP, $orry to $ay.

Please, they didn't just find these younger women.. They've been fucking them for a while. Their wives found out and dumped them.

Agree OP - it’s oddly easier for middle aged straight men after divorce. Also because younger straight guys are clueless and older divorced guys have been trained to deal with and manage the needs of women. Sucks for older female divorcees - unless you’re Paulina Porizkova or the like.

Most don't find new women. There's a reason why marriage rates are going down

Yes.

50 year old straight men with a hard cock and some cash are always at a premium, straight or gay. As said above, most of these guys were probably auditioning for replacements well before wifey got wise and contacted a lawyer. It's most difficult I'd guess for the not-working wife left behind, particularly if the kids had early in the marriage are grown and gone. But just as awful for the gay house-husband who managed their married gay couple's lives together. As Ivana said so memorably (!!?!) in FIRST WIFES CLUB: "Do get mad! Get everything!" Then again, she ended up pushed down the stairs and buried off the 18th hole on a cheap golf course. (And most likely with evidence buried with her.)

It’s the same with gay men. While younger bfs can be more energetic, older gays with hard cocks know what they’re doing.

Go for experience over jackrabbit energy every time

@3 "unless you’re Paulina Porizkova or the like" Even Paulina was whining for YEARS on her instagram page about how no good men wanted to date her. Granted, she seemed immature, narcissistic and like she would simply. never. shut. up but if she were in her 30s, that wouldn't bother any straight man enough to avoid dating her. Now she's engaged to a fug Hollywood writer so yay, Paulina, I guess.

A different take, told to me by a marriage counselor. Some men "need" a woman and quickly find someone else after they divorce, even if that new female isn't entirely suitable, having someone is key. Women who've divorced are far more discriminating about finding a new man.

R11, men are far more likely to abuse their stepkids

No women in her 30s sees her 55-year-old boyfriend as having dementia or chronic illnesses in 20 years. Have fun at the independent living community.

To R11- I'm actually surprised she got jail time!!

Hot women don't get put in jail.

Women have a much lower recidivism rate than men, regardless of what they look like

@14 They do if there are some crotchety old spinsters on the jury. "That young hussy...!!!"

Most straight women are looking for men who are "superior" to them: taller, better-educated, richer. As women continue to make up a higher percentage of university grads, continue to increase in share of the high-paying jobs, there are ever-fewer men who can tick their boxes, so to speak. Whereas men continue to be visual creatures, first and foremost. As long as she is youthful and cute, doesn't seem like too much of a pain in the ass, he's probably happy to invest at least a year or two in a relationship with her.

From what I can tell, young straight women have it easy, older straight women feel invisible, tall men with good jobs have it made at any age.

I find a lot of these men just cannot be alone. They cannot function alone. They need someone. My dad cheated on my mom over several years until she found out and kicked him out. Within six months of the divorce, he was marrying one of the women he was with, and he is still married to this day at 90 years old.

I think r18 and r10 are right. It's not that these men are super desirable and are somehow managing to land incredible replacement partners. They need to be in a relationship.

I see what you did there!

Women who date older men are nearly all damaged as fuck. I grew up with them. They loathe those guys and their old dicks
