Rusty and IROC,

Gents. My heart is hurting for you. I am 56 and one of my biggest fears in my wife getting tired of my *****. Because she does on a daily basis. Before I go further, please take care of yourself. Mental health is a real challenge for EVERYONE.

The upside? My buddy did this a few years back. He is a self-employed lawyer with a full head of hair. Not fit. Not tall. Not a sparkling conversationalist. Has a bunch of children he is still raising. In other words, he is a mixed bag. And, he told me as soon as the word got out that he was single the cougars went wild. He may have done the digital dating, I am not certain. But he says that suburban coug's from my neighborhood were the most aggressive. His stories are actually pretty funny.

And in the end? He married a 29 year old when he was in his young 50's. She is a Doctor now. So he may have hit the jackpot. Of course, all negotiations have some give and take. I think his deal looks better on the outside than it actually is.

But the summary? Even a pudgy, boring lawyer can do well on the rebound. And my brother's rebound story is even more impressive. He is a real piece of work!

Good luck! I feel for you. Take care of your self. This is difficult.
