And therein lies the rub. Single women my age (late 30s) are broken: by career failure, educational failure, relationship failure. They tend to be bitter and angry and have unrealistic expectations for relationships. Younger women (again, in the same high-achieving cohort) aren’t broken yet. They’re pregnant with possibility and are excited, rather than cynical, about the challenges ahead of them. So, all things being equal and not compromising on brains, character, integrity, or looks, I’d choose the younger woman each time.

Of course, life rarely presents the equal decision. I’d never choose a young, dumb woman after my money just as I’d never choose an older, smart woman littered by career failure. I’d rather be single and happy than tied down to misery.
