"When my ex-husband hit 50, he had a midlife crisis and decided he wanted to talk to all kinds of other women. He sent them money and all those fun things. I was not getting the love or attention I deserved. He'd only go down on me like once a year. The sex in that marriage was never all that."
"It sounds like he really understood what you'd been craving. I got on the apps, and I was shocked to see how many younger guys were interested in me. My inbox was full of really hot twentysomething men who didn't seem to care that I was divorced or older. I had never been with anyone significantly younger, so I decided to give it a shot."
"He was 27. He came to the hotel I was staying in, and we had dinner and went up to the room. We were at it all night. The next day, I could barely move my legs to get down the stairs. I thought one of my legs was going to give out. He hit it out of the park."
A 51-year-old Alaskan divorced after a more than two-decade marriage following her husband's midlife crisis and lack of sexual attention. She turned to dating apps and received many messages from attractive twentysomething men who were unconcerned by her age or divorce. Many local men are military and under 35, with irregular availability, fitting her preference for casual encounters rather than a relationship. Her first sexual encounter with a 27-year-old was intensely physical and lasted all night, leaving her sore the next day. A strong positive first experience encouraged continued dating of younger men despite potential risks.
