51-Year-Young Divorced Male with All My Teeth: Am I Past It, or What Are My Chances of Finding Mrs. Right?

[Thetreeisup]

“I’m a 51-year-old male who got divorced about a year ago. I’m ready to settle down with a new lady. I look younger than my age and get along with everyone. I have my own house, work, and own a car. Also, I still have all my own teeth!

What are my chances of finding Mrs. Right? I loved my wife, but we grew apart and mutually decided to get divorced. She found someone else, and I didn’t, but I feel it’s a lot easier for women to find romance.”

Is there a reason this is in quote marks?
And actually I think at your age the reverse is true; it's easier for men to find a partner.

It depends what you look like and how normal you are, really.

Dh was 50 and divorced when we met. We have been together 24 years now. Two children. Happy life.

You’re fine! If’s the 52 year old women like me nobody wants! It’s a man’s world. You’ll get your 25 year old girlfriend soon. Patience.

Is that a dating profile?

If so liven it up a little. I've been reading stuff like that for decades (especially the cliche about the teeth!). It tells me absolutely nothing about you other than you own your own house etc and you can sum all that up with one word: solvent. Put your hobbies and interests (but for the love of god do not put a picture up of you fishing and showing off a carp!).

You also need to be clear about what you're looking for.

I think genuine men will have no issues finding a lady.

Are you a fish guy?

Dating profile 🤔

Are you trying to get one us mn to date you 😆

Don’t most people at 50 have their own teeth? This seems like a low bar.

Why did your end? This may give clues as to what is going on? How are you trying to people someone new?

This isn't Dear Deidre.

I wouldn't be interested in somebody who uses unnecessary quotation or calls women ladies.

Hey , he probably doesn’t know mumsnet well , cut him some slack! Don’t worry op you’ll find someone. Just don’t be a knob.

As long as you’re not exclusively looking to date a woman 20 years younger I’m sure you’ll find someone.

Saying 'n-year-young' makes anyone sound ancient.

Yeah, that too.

Question. Why do you have the need to list all the things you own?

Most women are not after material things and an honest bloke who has more green flags and is not a lava field of red flags is very in these days.

Also, would you date yourself?
Or are you after a regular cleaner and sex?
Are the reasons you want to start dating due to loneliness?

Be honest what you are after and why and the right person, not perfect, no one is, will eventually pop up.

Aaaand lastly, most women want a companion that who has life skills such as cook and clean for himself.

Or fishing ?🎣

This isn't a dating site dude.

Please no one fall for this shit and message him.

A lot of people think they look younger than their age but they usually don't. What about your personal qualities? Are you kind, funny, clever, hard working, loyal, reliable, honest etc?

You need to get yourself on Hinge or Tinder or Grindr or whatever it is.

Hmm what’s the relevance of “looking younger” I wonder 😂

I don’t think he likely to find Mrs Right on Grindr, more like Mrs Wrong
