Why are old people so delusional when it comes to large age gap relationships?

[Anonymous]

A lot of old people seem to be very delusionally confident in large age gap relationships. Just because things are working out when you're 45 and they're 25, it doesn't mean things will work out when you're 60 and they're 40. Just imagine being so young and full of energy and life at 40 being married to a 60 yr old senior citizen on the brink of retirement. Do you really think your young 40 yr old spouse still at their prime in life will still want to be with you?

If you're 45 and you don't want to date a senior citizen, what makes you think your much younger spouse would be happy to be stuck married to a grandpa or grandma?

😆😆😆 You mean guys like Paul Rudd voted 2021 series man alive? Or does he conveniently not count.

Money talks.

[OlderAndWiser]

You will not always be young, and you will not always see the world through young eyes. One day, you will be older and wiser.

[exitseven]

@OlderAndWiser or at least older.

[Asker]

Even old people aren't attracted to old people.

[OlderAndWiser]

Your knowledge of the subject is far more limited than your confidence.

[Asker]

so why did you marry a younger woman? why not an older one?

[OlderAndWiser]

When did I marry a younger woman?

[Asker]

Dont play dumb. Youve told everyone on here your fiance was at leazt 10 years younger. Even you dont want someone older

[ohsheeT]

You are 100% right you have to understand not all age you got relationships are the same. If there's somebody that I like it is younger than me and I like them I have one concern and that is all the above what you just said. And common sense is common sense come on.

The way that I deal with it the way that I look at it is I let it be known if this thing was to play out there's going to become a point in time where I'm going to say it's time to go because I don't want to hold that person back. And if you love somebody that is the truth as much as you hate to see them walk away or you make them go away because of whatever you believe in there has to be some sort of deal and I would not want that on anybody I would want them to go and expand their life take what you've learned turn it to the best of your ability and you'll be happy

[rachel776]

i like older guys but i don't expect it to last, but one day it might. my boyfriend now is 14 years older than me and it's going great

but McPhee and David Foster 34 years apart and Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones 25 years

[slatyb]

Age is mostly a matter of attitude and health. Plenty of sixty-year-olds are quite active in and out of bed.
When I was dating in my late 30's, I found some women my age were already old.

[Asker]

its scientifically proven that sex drive and performance decreases with age.

[EricSummer]

That's right, but the starting point of male sexual energy in the 20s is so high that it is ok to tone down somewhat.

[EricSummer]

We are banking on gender differences I suppose. Same as a cat's years are different from human years even the human years are different between women and men.

[Pyrofox]

Its all about finding ones twin flame or soul mate. Sometimes its not age that matters its the need to have someone for the companionship.

[Asker]

you can't have the companionship when your elderly spouse can't even catch up with you in the walk in the park.

[Pyrofox]

You just walk slower.

[inhua]

I thought confidence was attractive in men?

I guess not, because it's just a crock of shit being perpetuated by women

[Asker]

do you really think girls are attracted to senior citizens?

[inhua]

they're attracted to who they find attractive.

[Asker]

yea... the elderly homes are great places for young women to find dates.

[inhua]

because elderly homes are filled with people in their 40s, oh wait. they're not

[Asker]

date you while you're in your 40s , dump you once you're 60

[inhua]

wouldn't make a difference given that 20 year old women are still dumping 20 year old men, 40 year old women dumping/divorcing 40 year old men and 60 year old women divorcing 60 year old men

age is of no guarantee people can stay together forever or breakup immediately

[Asker]

@inhua

she will dump you by the time you hit 60 for a younger man. why would she stay with a grandpa who can't even fuck?

[inhua]

what younger man? a 40 year old man? lmao. a 20 year old man? roflmao

I'd say good luck with that cause she ain't getting shit from me if that happens

[Asker]

@inhua

what makes you think a 40 yr old woman would prefer a 60 yr old senior citizen who can't fuck over a sexy hot 35 yr old with a nice long strong dick?

[inhua]

what makes you think that 35 yr old man isn't just going to just use that 40 yr old woman for sex and then leave her? while he commits his time, energy, resources, love to the 20 yr old woman

[Asker]

@inhua

by the time you hit 60, you wouldn't be able to compete with even a 45 yr old man.

[inhua]

what makes you think a 45 yr old man would want to compete for a 40 yr old woman especially if he has better options?

if that's her attitude then he can have her. he'll be sick and tired of her soon enough anyways

[Asker]

@inhua

By the time you are 60, you wouldn't be able to even compete with a 50 yr old man.

[inhua]

if a wife/girlfriend still insists on her husband/boyfriend competing then she's not a wife/girlfriend

the 50 yr old man can have her then, not that he'll want to keep her

[Asker]

@inhua

No woman in her 40s want to be a wife to a senior citizen grandpa. Why stay married to a senior citizen when she can get a younger man?

[inhua]

nobody is stopping 40 yr old women from marrying younger men. good luck to her finding a 20 yr old man who wants propose to her

[Asker]

@inhua

there's more people willing to date a 40 yr old woman than a 60 yr old man. Lets get the facts straight. Nobody goes to the elderly home for dates, ok?

[inhua]

yeah more are willing to pump and dump her later. no man is going to take a woman like that seriously especially one who left her husband for those reasons.

[Asker]

@inhua

women don't leave husbands that are close to her age. statistics have proven that.

[inhua]

statistics don't prove that. more women are divorcing husbands their same age in overall total numbers than women divorcing husbands with an age gap.

age is not the reason whatsoever. women are emotional and base their actions on their feelings not logic. lesbian marriages end in divorce more often than heterosexual marriages which end in divorce more than gay marriages. clearly this isn't the men's fault when women are even filing for divorce against each other.

[Asker]

A five-year age gap means the couple is 18% more likely to divorce. That rises to 39% for a 10-year age difference. When the couple has a 20-year age gap, the likelihood of divorce rises to 95%. A 30-year age difference means a whopping 172% chance of divorce.

nypost.com/.../

@inhua

[inhua]

lmao 172% chance. that's when you know a study is bullshit

let me guess? a 40 year age gap has a 350% chance of divorce?

a 50 year age gap has a 720% chance of divorce?

a 60 year age gap has a 1600% chance of divorce? oh wait, no because the marriage with the largest age gap ever at 60+ years didn't result in a divorce

[Asker]

@inhua

even divorce lawyers have the same things said on their websites.

just cuz you don't like it, it doesn't mean its not true.

[inhua]

except the marriage with the largest age gap of 60+ years didn't result in a divorce which is true

if the study was true, then such a marriage would've resulted in a divorce but it didn't

[Asker]

@inhua

i listen to studies and research data, not what some angry pervert has to say about age gaps.

[inhua]

your research data and studies has been debunked

[Asker]

@inhua

you haven't debunked it. nobody has debunked it. you just don't like it.

[inhua]

it has nothing to do with what I like. your studies have no logical basis whatever. any marriage with an age gap greater than 30 should automatically result in divorce. except they don't

[Asker]

@inhua

no woman wants to marry a man with a 20-30 yr age gap. unless she's looking for him to die early so she can take all the inheritance.

[inhua]

except there are some that do. even if they are rare, I'm not trying to stop them nor shame them unlike you

[Anonymous]

Marriage isn't working in the West regardless of age. The most important lesson to understand about any kind of relationship being sexual, friendly, your penpal, each and every one is a transaction where men and women in general want the opposite the other wants, and wants to get as much as possible while simultaneously wanting to give the least amount of what the other wants to continue getting what they want and obviously value

[Truthatanycost]

That doesn't change much. I still got approached by a 21 year old...(I prefer being single).

[Asker]

they're gonna ditch you once you turn into a senior citizen.

[Truthatanycost]

I will remain single for the foreseeable future. But many have no idea about age and how much your mindset, subconscious and belief effects it's 'progress'.

[Asker]

its more like you just can't stand the truth. Very typical of old people.

[Truthatanycost]

Yes that must be it!

[WhiteBorr]

Dear me, imagine being a poor woman in her mid 40's being stuck with a guy who entering retirement where he can now spend his time and money on enjoying life with you

[Asker]

its more like he can't help pay the bills cuz he's retired. he can't help raise the kids either. Not only this, he could hardly fuck

[WhiteBorr]

Except when he knocked you up at 25, and he is in his prime 40's to raise kids (especially handling boys). When he's retired, they are young men leaving home and he can spend his time with you instead of at work. And have you heard of Sildenafil before?

[exitseven]

There are many older guys who have kept in shape and can compete with guys half their age.

[Asker]

keep dreaming old man

[Anonymous]

You'll understand when you get older and have the beneft of the wisdom that comes with more experience and more years of existence on this planet.

[Asker]

no wisdom will make senior citizens more attractive.
