Behind every great man, is an even greater woman.

My advise, find a younger woman.
That looks like Newman from Seinfeld today,
Jesus chose to love US, and He is our example for all things human.
Thank you for your comment.
Our eldest son always insisted he would marry a woman 10 years younger.....and he waited until he was 34 before finding her......and what a gem she is......after 10 years of a great marriage, their 2nd child is on the way........
Meanwhile I am 9 mo. older than my wife, and we have been happily married for 45 years.....by the grace of God......love her more than ever.
Different strokes for different folks........
There’s an even greater age gap between myself and my girlfriend. That doesn’t bother her and we’re already planning on going to her prom next spring when she graduates high school.........

Lucky you...I have to wait several more years before I can take my girlfriend to her prom. ;-)
My maternal grandfather was 20 years older than my grandmother.
My paternal grandmother was 11 years older than my grandfather.
Of my 8 aunts 5 married men 10+ years older than them.
Behind every great man, is an even greater woman.
Money talks. If they ran a cover and lost money that’s one thing but they’d sell a lot of copies. They’d lose liberal advertisers and liberal designers would boycott etc. can’t understand why she’s not in foreign mags. Maybe she is.
Gee - by then the baby will be a toddler.
Beau’s first wife (RIP) was 12 years older than him. They married when she was 40 and he was 28.
I’ve had a long-term relationship in the past with a 10 year age gap; an older man with money and success IS a pretty nice combination!
PDJT seemingly has the energy and stamina of a 50 year old - if not younger.
God Bless them BOTH! They take it on the chin every day and keep on WINNING! FOR US!
MAGA! :)
What creeps me out is when a man “marries” his son. People need to get a grip.
That doesn't bother me as much as a man banging his daughter and her friends, together.
Ugh, not Murdoch either......old and old looking and not attractive
....but Trump, my goodness he has so much stamina, cuteness, and personality, ‘‘tis easy to see why Melania was and still is attracted!
“What creeps me out is when a man marries a woman the same age as his daughter.”
Yes, me too. I had the reverse happen to me where a young lady claimed she wanted to marry me. She showed me pictures of her father, I asked how old he was, and I was couple years older than her father. It creeped me out.
I knew her motives had to do with money and not at all with love, nonetheless I tried to think it through. I tried to imagine what it would be like talking to a father-in-law younger than I am. Or how my daughters would like the idea of calling this thing “mom”.
There are countless cases where there is true love when there is such an age gap, but with women like I am talking about, many an older guy fall prey to these young attractive hot little witches. Only to suffer the pain of being cleaned out by their first wife, then a more thorough financial cleaning by the younger one.
“It does not make them sluts or bad”
I suppose it only makes them shallow
I’m sure you have pointed out the age gap between Ruth and Boaz, in the Bible. :). Your ex wife probably didn’t have a good come back for it. Nothing for then to repent about.
Real Moochie Virtual Moochie
Most of the people I’ve known were raised through childhood by 20 somethings who knew next to nothing about everything, including having and raising children.
The mistakes those 20-somethings made as parents, as husband and wife, as providers and just being the young, inexperienced people they were way back then still haunt their now adult children today all these years later!
If that is your story, then just look around you at the average 20 somethings and imagine them as your parents doing the best they can with what little they have. It puts things in perspective and makes forgiveness for their past “sins” a bit easier to find now.
On the other hand, an older man, who has lived, learned, matured and worked through those young person’s mistakes while also learning a career and becoming a good provider, is finally better qualified to be both a husband and a dad.
Women, generally speaking, are hardwired to seek a good provider who will stay and provide for her and her children until the children have grown up and are ready to leave and cleave for themselves, so to speak.
It therefore seems somewhat natural for a younger woman to be attracted to an older, mature, relatively healthy and financially stable man.
Well, that’s what I keep telling myself anyway. ;)
