30 (i.e. choice o 20 year olds, very little choice or chance)
35 bit better but still difficult
40 starting to be a realistic proposition that you might get one
45 plenty of unattached 35 year olds around.
it does continue:
60 now you're firmly in the target age group for any unattached 50 year old
80 outnumbered by single/widowed 70 year olds about 10 to 1.
But obviously the trouble if you leave it too late is you miss out on her best years too and that's a good time to build attachment.
So if the endgame is to be 70 years old, living with a great 60 year old wife you've been with for 25 years, with your own kids and perhaps with first few grandkids on the horizon then this is still not such a bad time at all.
For same age relationships it's maybe late-ish but he's not restricted to them.
