Oh well, you can be mad at any age. But I would expect some wisdom from people in their 50s.

I'm in my 50s. I'd like to be married. Not that living with someone was much different. There is just something about making that kind of commitment. *shrugging* But, it isn't in the cards anyway, so it doesn't matter.

I enjoyed sharing my life with someone. If I find someone or if someone finds me, that would be great. If I'm alone, that will be okay, too. I probably won't make dinner most of the time. And I'll hog the covers.

Hmm. That's interesting. Was married before. Married again at age 50. Still married 17 years later, as is my wife (surprise, surprise!) who was 48 and married twice before.

Guess we just didn't know any better.

Yeah, I rarely see people marrying in their 20s, but 30 on up is going on like hot cakes.

Is Poople some kind of crazy urban dictionary conjunction between poop and hole?

If two people love each other then who cares what age they are.

That's good to know. I'm in my 50s and would like to marry again. But the woman I'm with right now is not interested in ever being married and my ex GF wanted at most to live together and even that was a problem. Other women I've talked to in their 50s, who have been through marriages and taken care of someone are not interested in doing that again. So, yes anecdotal but it's just what I've experienced and heard.

I guess that just goes to show there is life after 39. LOL

Good for them if they find love, who the heck cares how old you are.

True but I think it has to do with where people live. I live outside of Chicago and the closer you get to the city the older brides and grooms are. I've worked with several people who married the first time in their 40's like a secretary who married first time at either 44 or 45.
