Mach, that’s really heavy on assumption and also on the assumption these women can’t maintain their own lifestyle. I imagine you are matching with middle aged women who have built something in their lives . They have hobbies like boating and enjoying sports! They aren’t kids anymore. They have earned things throughout their lives and often make their their own money to maintain them.
I happen to know a good amount of women who earn pretty well for themselves. They don’t need a man to pay for the things they enjoy. It’s an outdated notion, don’t you think?
Also, To speak to why OLD dating is so hard for MEN as one poster had mentioned. I agree. It is harder for middle aged men these days. Mainly because men used to be able to bring some charm and a salary to the table . Women no longer NEED men. They have to bring more to the table than being the guy who works over 50 hours a week and provides. Because women are doing it too. And killing it. Typically in midlife, it’s more of a want than a need . Women and men both are established. It’s harder than it used to be sure, but majority, the standards are not unreasonable
