Please Older men prefer younger women because it brings there youth back. My mother used to tell me to never date a man to much older than me because he would suck my youth from me like a vampire. Now that I'm 34, it doesn't really matter lol!! But older men who get women in there twenties are playing daddy, do NOT let them fool you. It's less of a hassle and plus her youth stimulates him more than anything else.

A friend of mine in his early 30's is currently dating an 18 year old, and regularly dates women in their early 20's. His explanation is that he still wants to pursue that younger lifestyle and that women his age are more concerned with security and settling down.

So, it can just be a matter of lifestyle choice.

I got divorced when I was about your age.
I looked forward to dating young, curvacious women!
I quickly found out that it's all about personality now.
She may be lovely, but if she has no life experiences, you'll just treat her like a daughter.
Unless you are a nefarious fool.

There's a young woman I work with that I spend a good deal of time talking to. She is 18 and one of, if not THE, most beautiful women I've ever met. If I'm honest I do fantasize about having something with her but I know it has zero chance of happening. Someone said earlier that an older man with a young woman would be thinking "wow I still got it". Not me. If something were to happen with this girl I would be thinking "what the hell does she see in me"

But man it makes me feel so good when I'm around her and talking to her. When I look into her eyes it's like electricity.

Well, either way, you would "still got it"... just because you wouldn't know the reason doesn't mean it didn't happen (hence, you 'got it' to some degree).

When I look into her eyes it's like electricity.

Yep, it's called a harmless crush (harmless when you know there's zero chance of happening, as you say).

^ Why would anyone be surprised? You clearly state in your profile that you are only interested in those willing to have (more) children and that eliminates most (although not all) women in their forties and up. So why do you claim it's a surprise that women, oh forgive me, GIRLS, of child bearing age are wanting to date you when one has to assume it's you who wrote your profile?

Edit...


She is 18 and one of, if not THE, most beautiful women I've ever met. If I'm honest I do fantasize about having something with her but I know it has zero chance of happening.


I am 54 and I have a granddaughter who is 17...the thought that a man my age not only fantasizes about "having something with her" or one of her peers but sees nothing wrong in saying so on a public forum makes me ill. Where is the puking emoticon when you need it for gawd's sake?

I agree with what has been said. If underage it is not ok.
However, when the age difference is over 10 years it starts to get a little bit too much, when over 15/20 then you should wonder why a young waman/man is with you..
let's be very honest...20 years is more than a generation away...you are basically dating your daughther/father!!!

Thirty years older? YOu do have daddy issues. What would you talk about I wonder. Were you looking for a sugar daddy. That is a huge age gap.

I hear a lot of people say that age is a number, but then again, so is my shoe size. This statement is not only misleading but a form of selfishness. It is merely a justification some people to use to go after someone much younger than them.

Now I have NEVER dated a woman much younger than I am. However, when I was twenty, I dated a woman that was 37 years old. It worked great at first, but after a year or so, those little inter-generational gaps started to seep in and cause enough friction to cause the relationship to collapse.

These types of relationships are insidious. It can start out wonderful, and then after a while, the breakups tend to be brutal and demoralizing.

You have to experience it to understand it.....

I personally find nothing wrong with 20 plus age difference as long as all involved are honest with their intentions. I date 10+ simply because I find older men more attractive, and trend to be more traditional, its not because of the money(although it would be nice lol). Maybe I'm shallow, but looks are important, and I'm not a fan of baby faces. Also I have no daddy issues. To each there own, right? :D

Then don't think about it, problem solved.

It' s very simple... unless you're one of the two people involved in a consensual relationship, nobody cares what you think about that relationship.

I nearly always go for younger women. They tend not to ask so many questions.

Im gonna say it- I feel some older men have been jaded by life experience. These men might seek the sharing of a breath of fresh vitality and youth they may feel slipping away. Some have been in failed relationships and may have self esteem issues stemming from their faults, and personal issues as seen by a former mate thrown in their faces. Women their own age may see these short comings as undesirable. Younger not as experienced women may over look these faults and make them feel like they once did. So power to the men that seek this kind of rejuvenation. I hope it lasts for them. I usually date older men because they make me feel like Im that special breath they want to breathe.

Poster 533- You forgot to mention the financial security that goes along with that.

I think the real issue is that age is a deal-breaker for most men. It's not too often that you see a 35 year old man leave a 35 year old woman for a 40-45 year old woman. He's more likely to go for someone 20-30. You look at the Celebrity men that date around, and they're generally going for women MUCH younger than them, and they most certainly have a wide variety of options as to what they can get. I mean why else would Hugh Hefner at the ripe old age of 85 be dating women that are younger than his kids? I'm sure he could find a nice pleasant 55-95 year old woman that, for her age, looks stunning. I browse my facebook, and most of my female friends from high school are married to guys that are at LEAST 5 years older than them. I honestly don't think most men are as concerned about things like "maturity" or "generation gaps." They just want to find the hottest female they can afford.

Not wrong at all. I rather date someone older than me, than younger.

+1 em_marie- great attitude and good of you to be who you are and not let dumb peer pressure dictate who you want to date!

As for me, I have dated older and younger so its all about who I connect with more than anything.
