I showed your photos to my husband. He placed your age at early 70-ies, her around 40.......... You and her look like father and daughter.

Yeah, I have to agree with your hubby Pitbull.
I wonder if CC3 has a mule suit in the closet?

I have to say that cc3 looks very appropriate and nice with both AW in his photos.
But to seriously believe that this not so bad looking UW finds an old man who is probably older than her father "the most intimately desirable man she has ever met" - come on! Someone is in serious need of a fork - to take pile of noodles off of their ears.  ;D

Maybe she has the mule suit since they plan to live in Ukraine.

cc3,
It was nice for you to post, brave too!
To be completely objective, I showed your photos to my husband. He placed your age at early 70-ies, her around 40.
You look like a runner of that age to me. You and her look like father and daughter.

I really like her slender thighs !!!

And, although he looks no younger than his stated age; I am quite envious of his athletic ability in distance running and he exudes great vitality.  I don't doubt his 'intimacy' ability.  And, unlike most of us, he is not a coward.

Although in their 60's, my AW GF's were fine hard bodies, with eager libidos...so I did not turn to UA out of desperation,
rather I was looking for a mutually supportive, live-together relationship, i.e.: marriage. My AW ex-GF's are well off, financially independent and were only interested in athletic activity partners.

I was just re-reading this again. 

Eager libidos but only interested in athletic activity?

A little confusing to me.

After living there myself, I wouldn't want to retire there.  My point... if she was looking for a mule, I would imagine she would pick a better one.

I am in no way suggesting cc3 is a mule, nor am I commenting on his relationship but realistically, how many chances does a UW over 35 have in finding a WM?  It is still not the norm.

I think you would be surprised at what WM are hooking up with over there.  I know I was.

That's not what I meant, either.  I meant that for every 10 UW looking for a foreign man, how many, especially over 35, actually meet a WM to develop a relationship with?  So, the odds are stacked against the UW to begin with, especially if she is over a certain age and has a child.

Yes, this is all true.

However, the interesting (even sad) thing is that the women themselves do not realize this.

For instance, a man finally contacts her and they meet.  She hasn't been on a date for X years.  But she acts like the prom queen who has a dozen men after her.  No, not all act in this manner; but a good number do.

And I realize it's just an inborn trait for women, just as men have certain inborn traits . . . so hard to change.

So a more appropriate approach would be kissing his feet? Or did you have something more specific that she should do?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_life_expectancy

Life expectancy AM about 75 years.

Life expectancy Russian and Ukrainian men 62.

So there could be a 13 year age gap, and the gal could still expect to spend as many years with you as she would with a local guy that was 13 years younger than you.




I used to date an American physician who had volunteered in one of the FSU countries before  and we discussed a lot of medical things in both countries, he explained that Americans tend to live longer because of the medical system when they are supported with all possible methods until they die as their relatives whine and complain a lot and don't understand that it's just time for their older relatives to go, they are not going to feel any better, they are just old.

In other words, for example if a 75 yo Russian has some  health emergency  and his relatives call the ambulance the ambulance may not come at all as they tend not to come or not to come fast when the patient is old.
In the US they come and do all kinds of necessary stuff and this person survives and has a miserable life full of all those pills taking and wheelchair, oxygen and all those kinds of stuff for several years longer. He lives but the quality of his life is often miserable.

Now let me put it this way:
-You are a Russian woman who has a 62 yo Russian husband that has a serious disease and dies almost right away.You cry, then move on with your life, go to dacha, travel, spend time with your grandchildren, friends, go to church, maybe date someone, and have romantic memories of your ex husband.
-You are a Russian woman that has a 62 yo American husband that has a serious disease and survives, has to be put in a wheelchair, you have to stay next to him all the time, change diapers, push the wheelchair, feed him, bathe him, etc. and enjoy all those kinds of things for at least 13 more years.

Which model would you prefer?

If my wife was in major pain, I would want to ease her pain even if that meant death.  If she was able to live a decent life even though she needed care (in a wheelchair), I would not have a problem changing her diapers and trying to enjoy as much time as we had together.


On the other hand, if it was me, I wouldn't want my wife to have to take care of me.   


My grandmother had Alzheimer's and it is a brutal disease.  I would try to get over there to help my grandfather and aunt when I could.  Deciding whether or not to take care of her was never an option to us.

LOL. Of course you do understand that highly depends on whom you ask, no?

 
So let me put this another way.....

You're a recently widowed RW living in Russia where women your age is literally and largely ignored by society, you're broke and have to pick mushrooms for dinner for the next 4 days, or...
 
You're a recently married, turned long-term care RW living comfortably in the US where women your age are considered 'prime cougar prospect' by young, hot and studly men, with the keys to a nice sportscar (old balding men seem to always drive a two-seater convertible) on the driveway, with your purse heavily weighted by credit cards with seemingly no limit and your almost-dead hubby is konked out on codiene for the night...

Disability insurance alone is worth more than an average annual wage in some places in FSU.
 
Besides, almost dead hubby only gets fed through a saline bag via a tube and all she'll have to do is hire a care-taker to change bedpans and cleaning once a week. Or maybe just wheel him out on the backyard and hose him down and let the sun and wind dry him out. He would never know anyway.

 :P  Of course I won't wish that on anyone.

Most friends of my ex parents-in-law are in 60-80 yo age range. Looking at the men, yes, those men wear better clothes than RM and have nicer cars, but almost all of them have gone through some health problems: some of them have Alzheimer, some have had strokes, some of them are in wheelchairs, I can't say they look better than the RM of the same age I know. The RM spend days in their dachas or with the cars and the AM play golf or go to church with their wives. When I was married and was in contact with my in-laws it was like almost every month my MIL had to attend another hospital as someone else of her friends had a surgery or a heart attack or another funeral and we all went to the "Caring bridge" to support the ones that survived  in their "recovery".

From my observation, the main difference , as I said, is that RM tend to die fast if they get some disease, in the US if they have any disease it will just last for long long years.

So the point is that you can't concentrate on abstract numbers, each case is unique and a longer life doesn't automatically mean a more productive  life full of pleasant events.

Geez, Sandro, I didn't realize this is true in Europe, too  :P Anyway, I think you should try and get your money back as it appears they put the steering wheel on the wrong side of the car.

It seems in LA convertible Porsche, MBZ, Corvettes, etc...are mostly driven by what I stereotyped above.

I really like her slender thighs !!!

On the photo of the blonde woman with the older chap you linked?

With respect to the lady, and I don't know her age, whilst she is not a fat lady, she is not what I would call slender of thigh. Probably European average.

For her height (relative to him - assuming he average), slender would be UK size 8 or less. She is more of an average size (UK) 10/12. My guess is she is circa 60 kgs. Slender for her height might be 54kgs, which that lady isn't.

After meeting and seeing her in real life, she is not big.  Everyone's opinion is based off of a few pictures and we all know that pictures can be misleading.  Saying that she compares to the average Brit chippie is hilarious.

I'd have to agree with Manny, going from the photo,
she's more average Brit than slender.
