I recently met a 55 yr. old man who has been married twice. With his first marriage he has 2 grown children. His 2nd marriage.. to a younger woman.. he has a 3 yr. old. Wondering how many women in his age range would consider having a long term relationship with him? I would not for a variety of reasons. My main concerns.. been there done that, I would not want a 3 yr. old every other week end, I would not want to be supporting this child for the next 15 yrs. plus possibly college. Let's hear your thoughts.
There is something distasteful to me about a man who would have a child in his 50's, even while having a lousy marital track record. Sounds like an incredibly short-sighted, selfish man. Thumbs down.

What do you mean by "a lousy marital track record"...? That was only his 2nd marriage and having another child is something very common when you marry a younger and never married woman.
His situation is not unusual, but that doesn't mean that some woman has to find it appealing...
There's also men in their 50s with young children who either had trouble having children or waited for some reason. Don't see anything selfish about that, especially since they're more likely to have the financial cushion to give the child a comfortable life.
I'd agree. I wouldn't want to do that. At 55 I'd be thinking of retirement. A trycycle motor sounds like a great way to drain money. I don't think I'd want to work because I have to support a child. I'd work because I like it.
To put it in my own perspective I would not enter into a relationship with a younger woman who was in the expectation of having kids. I love mine god knows but I do not wish to do it again. Grandkids, yes, one one the way and I cant wait to spoil him or her but more of my own, hell no. Its time to enjoy the fruits of my labors, not my loins.
Ah, he'll find another young one. They seem to be be ga-ga over old dudes for some reason.
