Divorcees
Has anyone else noticed how divorced women in their 40's+ appear to loose all sense of rationality or cohesion? I've met several in the last few months and they all seemed pretty loco en la cabaza, if you know what I mean.
Men seem to handle divorce much better, they appear to just move on with life. Women on the other hand seem to become neurotic and paranoid, not all but a good percentage. Maybe it's just my perception, but it's a pretty scary one.

Maybe THAT's why they're divorced?
Mine went crazy after 40 as well...

I think people in general are going crazy now a days. I see some pretty messed up stuff (For lack of more appropriate words I can't use here.) lately than I have ever seen before. The government is spraying some sort of crazy juice over city's from their black hawk helicopters. Anybody want a tinfoil hat?

That comes from watching too many Lifetime movies. That crap gives people bad ideas, in my opinion.

Gee guys, I can't believe how anti-female some of you sound. (Maybe some of you are just bitter).
Look at this from the woman's point of view and perhaps you can understand. Say a woman in her 40's is divorced. For the most part, her income is going to be lower than a man the same age working in the same profession. There may be valid reasons for this discrepancy (many women take time off from work to raise their families and so lose their place in the career track). Or there may be invalid reaons for this discrepancy (women are penalized for taking time off to raise their children; which then leaves our society with a generation of children raised by nannies or housekeepers who can barely speak English, not a real good thing). Regardless of the reason, women on the average make less money than us men. So a woman in her 40s who is divorced is right away at a financial disadvantage (and no, I don't buy the crap that divorce women are living high on the alimony gravy train, the statistics just don't bear this out). If she wants to date again, she is at a further disadvantage. A man in his 40s can be fat and balding, and suffering from ED, but if he is got some money (or a decent job) he has no trouble finding women. He can "explore" the whole age range from young women (in their 20s) to "mature" women (in their 50s). No one raises an eyebrow if an older guy is dating a younger woman. A woman in her 40's (or 50s) must be really hot (think Dana Delaney--with a nod to JimB) in order to be able to find younger guys (or even guys in her own age range) to date. Most recently divorced men in their 40s and 50s want to date the "hot young chick" even if she is completely out of his league. Women in their 40s are not left with a lot of choices; it is hard for them to find suitable mates because all the men her own age are busy chasing after the post high school girls. Add to the problems faced by women the fact that if there are children, most of the time the woman ends up with full time custody. Tough to date when you have kids at home. We men get the weekend visits, which is not enough if you truly love your children, but at least it frees up time to date around. So, is it any wonder that some divorced women in their 40s get a little "nutty." We guys would also act "nutty" if faced with the same situation. In my experience, divorced women in their 40s and 50s seem happier than many divorced men. It may be because I deal mostly with professional women (attorneys, not that other kind of "professional women" ) but they all seem happy to have dumped their husbands, most of whom were losers to start with. I don't think that we can generalize that this is a "woman thing." People are people, and we all handle adversity differently. BTW, women do not have a monopoly in coveting what others (other women have). We men are also guilty of that. Hence the 10th comandment: You shall not covet your neighbour’s house; you shall not covet your neighbour’s wife, or male or female slave, or ox, or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbour. I think that God knew that coveting was a male thing as much as it is a female thing. Personally, I find women fascinating. Glad to have them around.

My dad told me not to try to understand women.
I don't. I just try to enjoy them and be fascinated by the mystery of them. That seems to work out pretty well.
