I date older men because they are more mature. Plain and simple. They usually have ahead on their shoulders, they are educated, they usually have a career and their own house.

Guys my age just don't cut it. They are immature, unexcepting of my child and are going no where but the bar.

Older men are also much more skilled in the bedroom. PLUS I enjoy the feeling of being beside an older man andknowing that all the women are wishing they had him but knowing they can;t top what I got.

I am 22 my last boyfriend was 39.

Perhaps that's how some see it, but I would see it as an 18 year old girl dating an 18 year old boy. The only thing I see hilarious about what you wrote is the notion of an 18 year old man or an 18 year old woman. They aren't exactly still children, but they aren't exactly adults.


Its hilarious in that you seem to be stonewalling. Not really giving an answer. 18 y/o is not a child anymore.

I don't understand it. I don't find men my own age or older that attractive to be honest (but there are always exceptions), so I don't know why a 19 year old girl would. My current boyfriend is several years younger than me. An ex male friend of mine was always salivating over young blond girls and some of them obviously didn't like it - it was a bit cringe-worthy the way he enthused over them like some lust hungry hound, and the majority of the girls were plain embarrassed. On a compatability scale, I like there to be no more than a 10 year difference either way. 29 years is way too much.

I see the comments a lot here on this thread that people 20 or more years apart don't have anything in common and I don't think that is all ways true. I am a 49 year old single dad, kids live with me full time and my youngest child is 8. Now I find I have more in common with most 29 year old women then most 49 year old women, not only because of the kids, but because of the type of activities I do. When I get a message from some one with grand children my kids age, I think what will we have in common. That said I do not box my self in by age. Since my divorce I have dated women ranging in age from 19 to 52 and they all had some things in common. All were fit, all loved the outdoors and all were fun to be on a date with, but the fit, loves the out doors and fun to be on a date with thing seems to be much harder to find in women over 40. It is still there in some, but far from being common. The other issue is I am not looking for long term, happy being single for ever. Finding a fun fit single women over 40 not looking for long term is also hard to do. Why box oneself in, if I can have a good date with some one 20 or some one 50 why not?

I actually know of a few of these so called connections that entered a stint of longevity and all of them ended when the gal reaches about 30 .. as she is coming into her own sexual drives and confidence and the old boy don't cut it anymore ... so that tells me that some are created for deeper reasons than six inches while others are twenty minute stints that should have set the baby and the seamen out with the bath water.

The neo cortex area of the brain which regulates the areas of reasoning and impulse are not fully developed in the human til it reaches 21-25 so 18 year olds are functionally not available in development .. and the men that desire these women are not functionally available ever .. so she grows up and he keeps looking for more .. almost jail bait... hmm peddle.. peddle feel yah...

Sungoddess...I disagree. I have dated older men and I am very well educated. I have "brains and thinks."

I married a man older then I was - he just wasnt old enough to be my dad or my grandfather - we could attempt to cut out our jaded ways of thinking and wish people like this well without automatically implying they each have separate agendas for being together other then love - but that happens no matter the age span between two people.

Just wish them well and carry on - the only reason it should bother you is if you were interested in either of the two for yourself and I would tell you in that case to still ... wish them well and carry on.

@capitano blaugh

You said : "Deal with it. Best thing you can do is work on your OWN ass if it's a bit broader than it should be. There is no better way to attract men than to stay slim and fit."

uh yea ok. She said they are looking for younger women not women who are slim and fit. You decided that all women over the age of 25 are overweight and unfit?

Not all men like skinny women either. Some are turned off by them and some have a fetish for bbw women.

You seem to be very narrow minded and superficial yourself.

The men who are in shape and have a lot of desirable qualities are out living it up with cute, fun girls while everyone else comes up with reasons why those men shouldn't be having fun with sexy women who appreciate them, as if those guys have some mental disorder for wanting to be around sexy women they have fun with.

I'm sure many men posting here who are all in favour of dating 18-year-olds would have second thoughts if it was their daughter who was being courted by a guy the same age as them.
My ex is almost 20 years older than me, but I have no doubt he would be off with his rifle (if he still had one) chasing any middle-aged man sniffing around our daughter.
Mind you, I wasn't 18 when we met - I was 30. Whole different ball game...

if dating outside of your race is ok, if same sex dating is ok, then dating outside of your age bracket is also ok. there should be NO debate about this.

It IS ok........

There aren't any laws against it (yet ).

A few people might complain here and there but hey, they can't stop you from living how you want to live.

They'll get over it. I already have

Yours was the only post, so far, that I found on this subject that actually hit it on the head. Leave him, her, them alone, and don't judge cause you may think you know what's happening and really don't! When I was a younger man in my late teens and early 20's, I had a long term relationship (7 yrs) with a woman who was 18 years older then me. She was beautiful and I was very lucky! When I was in my late 30's and early 40's I had a long term relationship (7yrs) with a woman who was almost 15 years younger then me. She was beautiful and I was lucky! So, I've lived both lives, and did I say, I was lucky!!!!! I'm still friends with both and they both have a place in my heart that they'll always have and I know I will always have a special place in their hearts!
I now date just people who are on my same level no matter what their age! Age is just a number!

Visually, just really bad. So I won't go there.

If they are both happy with the situation why should anyone give a flying monkeys' wing who's hitting who?
I sure don't and why should you?

it is because that man is incredibly wealthy, and that's it! for example, my drinking buddy's dad just sold his business and walked away with millions some months ago. he tells me he is astonished that his dad dates girls younger then him (my drinking buddy is 29). I tell him, "don't worry about all that. those young girls don't see his age; they see his bank account, and i'm sure your dad doesn't give a rats a$$". Look at Hugh Heffner (or however you spell his last name) ... same thing.

there are cases where the love is authentic, but the odds of that is similar to the odds of seeing a UFO.

After reading most of "older women" answers, I understand why no man in their sound mind would want one of them near him.

Summarizing:

Older Women:

"Men of our age are mostly lazy, pot-bellied losers. If they want one of us, they will have to work harder, prove themselves harder, accept that we won't give them any slack at all and that they better shape up to our standards or we will kick them to the curb. In exchange of that, we will give them the wonderful chance of paying for whatever cr*p other guys did to us when we were younger and also to hear us telling them what shallow creeps they are by wanting outrageous things such as smooth skin, regular sex and a happy attitude".

Older Men:

"Nah, too much work, too little reward. Let's look for younger women".

Older Women:

"Why wouldn't they want one of us? They are probably closet pedophiles".

A lot of middle-aged men are in denial about their own age and fading attributes. They look at women in their own age bracket and think bloody hell look at that menopausal old crow! They can't seem to see that they themselves have also changed and gained weight and wrinkles. Even thinking back to my parents, I remember when I was a kid and my dad was young acting and outgoing...now he's 50 something and a right crotchety picky bugger. But can he see it? Ooooh no. My mother's the one who's changed according to him ;o) lol.

I feel I have more in common with guys around my own age... my guideline is 5 years either side. Of course I've had men in their late 40s/50s try it on and they seem genuinely shocked when I tell them they're too old for me.

Older woman dating a young guy "Oh..YOU GO GIRL"

Older guy dating a young woman: "PERVERT!"

Hmmm...
