Divorce After Age 50

I would say that life is very good for these women. They have done their part to raise kids and fulfill obligation to society, so no one should judge them harshly. It should be much easier to find great partners in the older age group. We know very successful, 60+, good men who unfortunately lost their wives after long and happy marriages. All these men are open to partner #2 with none of the bitterness that comes after divorce

 

Rosequeen - Why do you imply or ask her a 50 something lady to marry a 60 plus man .. she can marry someone her age or even younger ..,

these days older women are even marrying younger men.,

the patriarchial mindset is no longer there for many men n women in metros in india or in the west…

its very very sad to see partriarichial views being forced upon Indian women by other Indian women or Indian men ..

 

What I meant is you have more choice if you are open to older age group.Why do you feel its patriarchical (assuming you are using patriarchy in a derogatory way)? Just stating obvious here that chance of finding widower in 60+ is greater than widower below 50 simply because of human lifespan. Same issue on divorcee vs widower, can't really say one is better than the other but widower has not been through bitterness of divorce (although there are other issues). Coming to younger vs older men, once again can't say one is better but older folks are usually better off financially and are looking for stability (though health is a concern), generally less relationship risk compared to younger men
Like it or not traditional (patriarchy as you call it) is time tested and has higher chance of success, whether it works in your case or not is up to you. Most important is to not live in fantasy world that some 'young prince' will come along and make everything great.
