Re: Older men and younger women.

Everyone is different and there are any number of reasons why it is possible for a relationship that includes a huge age disparity to work out. Normally it involves money. If a guy has enough money it is not hard at all to find a woman to marry that is 20-25 years his senior.
The main problem I have experienced is one similar one experiences having a lovely wife that just happens to be a member of a family of people you really don't want to have anything to do with. In the case of the divorced women I have dated inevitably their relations as well as some of their friends are jackasses or the woman finds my friends to be the same way to her.
In a recent bad experience my lady friend and I were standing in a theatre lobby with another couple during an intermission. I have known the other guy for more than 40 years. While I was absent, having excused myself to use the mens room he made an off color remark to my lady friend. This in spite of the fact it was the first time they had met.
No fuss was made of it for the remainder of the evening but when my lady friend and I bid the couple goodnight to their car in the driveway, as soon as they pulled out, my lady friend continued to her car, said "Goodnight" and drove off. I have not heard from her since. She had emphasized that she preferred our relationship to be as "friends" to begin with because of our age difference. She is 45 and I am 68.
When she drove off it was as if the light switch had been turned off. I felt very bad the whole week, especially that night and the next day.
Yesterday I bought the movie "Something's Got to Give" with Jack Nicholson and Diane Keaton. I enjoyed it but at the same time there were some parts in that movie that had a very dark side to them and they made me feel very uncomfortable. They made me realize how old I really am. They made me feel like an idiot as well as a dirty old man.
I am now trying to decide whether to still keep trying or resign myself to a hermit-like existence and just go deeper into my reading and writing and forget about spending the rest of my nights in bed with Diane Keaton or a woman even younger like the one I took to see "Gypsy" last Saturday Evening.
Advice anyone? :wink:
