That's just the reality. Most people date people of a similar age and by 40, most people have had kids. Women in your age range who are back in the dating market are going to be mostly divorced and probably have a kid or two. It's not the end of the world. If you want a younger woman in her 20s, you can go for it. But I believe in any girl in her 20s willing to date someone way older than her probably has ulterior motives. Think Anna Nicole Smith.
