For guys over 50. What do you want in a woman?

Looks like I will be single in the very near future after 32 years. To say I am out of the date loop is an understatement. What I would like to know is what are guys my age, over 50, looking for in a woman. Is sex still a big issue with you? I mean I know it was when you were 17 but now? Cooking, cleaning, beauty? Or are you all just looking for younger women? :)

Update:

No he is not leaving me for a youner woman. He just wants to be friends with me. He love for me is not the kind that will sustain a marriage. SIGH And yes I am heart broken but not much to do for it. I may feel like doing it but I wil not lay down and die.

Update 2:

And I have no interest in younger men. I really want someone I can relate to. Someone who has had some similar life experiences. Someone who if I say Blue cheer they don't think I am refering to a color of laundry detergent. No offense to younger guys.

    Well, I'm not over 50, but maybe I can shed some light on your question. I'm 38 and not too far from 50, so I can't be that far off. First, the younger woman. Heavens no, that's way too much drama. We don't want to have to go through all the little petty games again. LOL. A little sarcasm, but it's true. Sex is still an issue, but women that are older are more experienced in it, so that's a plus. We wouldn't want to have to go through the training curve again. We like it when a woman knows what she wants, and she isn't afraid to let us know. Companionship is also a plus. Having someone to talk to during our ups and downs, because we all have those kind of days. Cooking and cleaning, LOL, most men are capable of doing that, although not all, but were not looking for someone to pick up after us or be our maid. I guess to sum it up, were looking for someone who takes us for who we are, quirks and all, without trying to change us into someone you want us to be. As far as beauty goes, that comes from within. You can find the most beautiful lady in the world , but on the inside she can be the most hateful person in the world. I know that from first hand experience. So, we do search for more than looks. As you can tell, it's all about the little things more than the big ones. I hope this helps you out.

    well, im not a guy over 50, but i do have some ideas...

    for guys over 50 are not immature any more as they were at age 17. They would probably like a woman to be herself, funny or serious, ugly or beauty, rich or poor, home person or restaurant person, etc.. Just be yourself..^^

    I'm not a guy, of course, but I can't wait to see what answers you get. I hope they're are out there.

    But, you know, don't confine yourself to men over 50 - why not a younger man? Ever considered it?

    C'mon guys. Answer the lady.
