Statistics on marriage 50+
Every year it becomes more and more popular to get married or remarried at the age of 50-60 years. According to statistics, the percentage of such unions is increasing; in 2013, more than 60% of weddings were recorded among people over the age of 50.
Experts have found that men and women have different views on relationships after 50 years. For example, among people who divorced their first partner or were widowed, men often move more easily to new relationships than representatives of the fair half of the population. After a long relationship, it is much more difficult for women to take a step towards a new life.
Experts have found that beautiful mature ladies are less active in searching for a new partner than the stronger sex, but at the same time they are no less in need of a partner. There are many advantages found in personal life after 50 years.
Have you decided to marry a foreigner after 50 years?
How to get married after 50? So I decided to check it out.
More than once I have heard complaints from women whose age has exceeded 50 that it is difficult to find a man and get married at that age. Yes, the life expectancy of our men is very short. But there is such a reserve as foreign men.
In order to communicate with them, you need to know at least one language, for example, English.
But you can learn a language for informal communication at any age. Moreover, all gerontological specialists insist that to prolong longevity it is very useful to solve crosswords and learn foreign languages.
If you studied a foreign language at school or university - very well, it will be easier for you. In one of the articles I wrote about how to learn foreign languages.
Is it possible to find men over 50 on international dating sites? I went to the website 7brides.ru.
I wrote that I was looking for a man from 50 to 80 years old. And what do you think? I received 13891 variants of questionnaires! Yes, not all men are looking for their peers. Someone wants a 30-year-old. This only means that the man is not smart enough. Do you need one? I think no.
If a man is looking for a lady a little younger than you, then you don’t have to immediately tell him about your real age. If you have a good photograph and the letters are interesting, perhaps in a couple of months he will no longer care what year of birth is on your passport.
If he finds a soul mate, then what do the numbers have to do with it? If not, you will find another.
And remember that the age of a Western man is not the age of our compatriots. And life expectancy in developed countries is longer than ours.
If a man is 67, then consider him to be approximately 60 years old by our standards.
They take care of their health, and in general their lifestyle and living conditions allow them to live longer and feel the beauty of life longer. Therefore, dear ladies of wonderful pre-retirement and retirement age!
Don't wait for luck while sitting on the couch! Go forward and win! Age is not a barrier!
Good luck to you, Alexandra Source

Good afternoon! Meni 51 rik, I want to meet a reasonable, carefree person, with serious intentions - a foreigner, unarmed - a sheep, poor (possibly) for serious hundreds))! I’m spinning around in the first place, because I’ve never been alone, but I gave all my fate to people I didn’t like! I don’t know whether to waste my comment or not)) - Tasya
Good day. I want to find a friend. Abroad, the upbringing is completely different and men treat women completely differently. I work and develop a business on the Internet. How to build a relationship if he only wants to relax and travel? You can meet someone on a dating site, don’t hesitate. I believe! I will wait and hope. Good luck to all! A person cannot be alone, and should not!!!

I dream a lot, but there are few worthy foreigners to be found. You won’t meet them on the street, probably the best option is a marriage agency, but not everything is so simple.

Advertising of the purest water, and so far from reality... you will never receive such a quantity of offers... especially at a certain age... you need to really attract people to your sites, and not invent

How many people, so many opinions. And I am in no way going to dispute this expression, and why should I? The only thing, if I may, Olenka, I want to contradict you a little). I found my wife on this site, although perhaps this was a matter of chance))) And I have been on many sites for more than one year, to be honest... So this is what I want to tell you: when I was looking for the woman I needed, I was talking about age as such I didn't think about it at all. Although no, I’m lying, the owners of “from 20 to 30” immediately disappeared due to their emotional and psychological immaturity and, as a result, incompatibility with my desires. I was looking for a soul: dear, gentle, kind, sympathetic... And I was looking, girls, only by the eyes, because, I don’t remember who said, they are the mirror of the soul... Dear women, believe me: if a man is looking for a companion for himself, and not an accessory, it doesn’t matter to him at all whether you’re 50 or 45, or already 55, it’s you who are “sick” with age, not us. Good luck to you all, patience and of course love, regardless of and despite any age!)

I partially agree with the author of the comment, but not completely. Regarding the fact that men are looking for younger women - yes. It has been and will be so always and everywhere. And the site 7brides.ru (which, by the way, I was also registered on) is no exception. I’m 53, but I look younger, and six months ago I found my foreign happiness, but without the help of a marriage agency (long story). As for the specifically mentioned site, while I was registered there, there were many men who wanted to get to know me. I had a serious correspondence with a man from France (we spoke English), he was going to come to me, but I suddenly met an Englishman in my own city, and everything started to take off. So the Frenchman disappeared by himself. But in general, as for the site, I didn’t find any particular shortcomings on it, a decent choice of men of all ages, including ours, Balzac’s). So, I think, those who are looking for their foreign soul mate abroad should register on it.

Good afternoon, Alexandra. I wouldn't say that. Almost all men are looking for younger women. This is more of a rule. But meeting a man who is looking for a woman after 45 and before 55 is rather an exception. I was registered on 7brides.ru. I am 49 years old, I am an athletic, attractive woman of oriental type. The photos were quite decent, but initially women of that age are not very attractive to men. Website owners naturally attract attention and advertise. And in particular, 7briges.ru makes fake reviews. And I wrote it twice, the administration didn’t even publish it. The selection must be done individually. On the site, women of Balzac's age have very little chance. Websites are a business. I would be happy to use the services of a specific person who has profiles of foreign men with serious intentions.

What are the advantages of getting married at 50?
Experts have noted many advantages in mature relationships among people aged 50+.
- Couples who entered into a relationship at a certain age do not harbor unnecessary illusions about the union and life in general. The happiness of such couples lies in the fact that they strive to share the best emotions with their other half.
- Living together makes life easier, allowing you to cut down on expenses. According to experts, dating someone interested in economic issues at the age of 50 is not so bad. The cost of living at this age is very relevant, and together it is much easier to cope with all the problems. This is beyond romanticism.
- Official certification of the relationship gives one and the other partner the right to help and make decisions in difficult situations when one of the family members is unable for some medical reason.
- But the most important advantage is romance, which inspires people and gives them a lot of energy, strength and happiness.
Love is available to a person at any age. If there is a person with whom you want to be close, he is reliable and always provides support, then why not, age is not a barrier, but another opportunity.
How to get married?
Despite the change in morals, most beautiful women still want to get married. If this goal is not achieved as soon as the girl or woman wanted it, then she begins to look for answers to the question of how to realize it. If a girl does not marry because she is young, then psychologists find the reasons for her problem in her. It’s more likely that the girl doesn’t know how to do something or does something in a way that deprives her of the opportunity to ring the guy.
Every year a woman becomes more and more puzzled by the need to get married. After all, it has long been believed that a woman’s happiness lies in her husband and children. No matter how a woman thinks, she still wants to be a wife and mother. Only when this happens depends on the lady herself.
Self-improvement and career growth do not always help in building love relationships. Even modern technologies, such as the Internet and dating sites, do not contribute to the establishment of serious or family relationships. What is the reason? Despite the large number of opportunities, people do not learn how to build relationships. This applies to both women and men. People think that relationships will work themselves out, so they wait for things to happen, which only leads to disappointment.
The problem with getting married after 30, 40 or 50 is that a woman may have unattainable ideas about who should be by her side.
By what criteria does a girl choose her boyfriend at 30?
- By external attractiveness.
- By social status.
- In terms of material well-being.
- By common interests.
- In terms of outlook on life.
- In relation to marriage and children.
Since it is difficult to meet all the criteria perfectly, the circle of men narrows very much. To prevent a woman from being left alone at this age, she is recommended to:
- Reduce demands on a man. Everyone has flaws. A woman should understand what shortcomings she is willing to put up with in a man.
- Stop seeing everyone as your future husband. This greatly stresses men out, so they run away from such a woman. It is better to simply communicate and meet with men, making the meetings pleasant and encouraging them to think about creating a family relationship with you.
- Increase self-esteem. Just the fact that you haven't gotten married yet doesn't make you inferior compared to other young ladies. Stop giving yourself qualities that only prevent you from living a happy life.
- Change your usual lifestyle. For example, change your route from work to home. Change your hobbies, start visiting new places. This will allow you to meet new men, and for them to notice you.
The problem with 40-year-old women is only their own thoughts, which they can put on themselves as labels. If a woman considers herself old, then she is not destined to get married. Of course, going to a disco to meet a young man will already look ugly. However, it should be understood that at the age of 40 a new life begins, when a woman no longer creates illusions, has wisdom, knowledge and even some kind of wealth.
To get married at the age of 40, it is recommended:
- Maintain a positive attitude. Treat yourself with respect and love, demanding the same from men.
- To live an active lifestyle. This does not mean sport, although it can create such a situation when you meet some man. Just go to different places more often to be around more males who might pay attention to you. It is better to go to places where there are men in your age group with whom you will be interested.
- Improve yourself. Don't stop with your own development. Men will be interested in communicating with a woman who lives and does not give up on herself.
- Get rid of stereotypes. You are now at the age where you can live for your own pleasure. What kind of men do you like? It is better to choose those candidates with whom you are really interested, and not those who are usually called ideal.
If it seems to you that after 50 years it is no longer possible to get married, then you have not made an even deeper mistake. At 50 years old, a woman has only advantages. She already understands a lot, she can give in, be friends with a man, and not demand and do what is due. We can say that the older a woman gets, the more suitable she is for building family relationships.
For a 50-year-old woman in a man, the following criteria are important:
- Confidence.
- Understanding.
- Support.
- Respect.
- Protection.
Ladies at 50 are already building friendships when they are filled with warmth, care and respect, and not passions and fireworks. Although there are also women who begin to remember their youth. They dress like young girls and only want to meet handsome young men. But for such ladies, the main goal is not to get married, but simply to excite emotions and experiences within themselves.
To get married at 50, psychologists advise:
- Work on past mistakes. The woman already had many relationships. Now you need to understand why they didn’t work out, work on your mistakes and not make them again.
- Look for a man with whom you will be comfortable. You should understand that you are already at an age when it is difficult to change anything about yourself. A man will also not be ready for various changes. It will be difficult to find a gentleman whose habits you can put up with, and also with whom you will not contradict your usual way of life.
- Be interested in life. You have already seen a lot, but not everything. The world is constantly changing. Life will be more interesting if you are interested in something new and fill your life with new events. There you will meet your betrothed.

What you need to be prepared for in marriage after 50 years
Relationships in adulthood require a special approach, experts say. Psychologists have given recommendations that will help make the union more favorable and successful.
- There should be no tension between partners; you need to approach with an open heart and soul. Then happiness will reign in the union. You shouldn’t be afraid of yourself, you should always be who you are and express your thoughts more often. Honesty is essential in love.
- A partner's independence is as necessary as other qualities. Marriage is not a reason to deprive a person of a piece of him or free creative flight. Relationships at this age should be more free, since over the years certain preferences and even a schedule have already been formed.
- At this age, you need to enjoy what a person has. You need to live every day like it’s your last, having fun and enjoying each other’s company. It’s worth starting with new experiences that unite.
At the moment, there are many examples of how people after 50 years found their soul mates and became happy, despite their age. Marriage at 50+ can be the beginning of a new life.
