myself.? I come from a background that seems to be the exception to the rule nowadays. Both my parents married in their late twenties and 30 years later are still together. I've seen them fight when I was little but it was a rare occurance and nothing explosive. Dad never 'worked late' or went on 'business trips'...not without asking my mom to come along too anyway. But everywhere else I look it's becoming more & more the norm to see men with women half their age and women over 40 are being discarded for a newer model much more readily. I've had more mature married men come on to me in the last 3 years (I'm 27) than guys my own age. Before Viagra & like drugs, men could mostly only dream of getting it up for young women. Now they can actually do it. Nothing wrong with that in my opinion, but what do women do after 40 now? Just get together with the girls and play bridge? *no need to respond about how these young women are only after the guy's money. As a woman, I know this.
