| Why older women scared about dating younger men? Posted: 6/9/2008 7:00:56 PM | I don't mind dating younger guy, my only concern is what's their motive in dating? is it only for fun? for one night stand ? or whatever it is , is it for good if things work out both ways? I have to meet him first in person, if he looks a lot younger with his age, and I look a lot older in person, then I probably not going to start dating him. But if he looks older in person than I am or almost same age in person then I will give it a try. I definitely will not be only for fun or for a one night stand.  | |

| Why are older women scared about dating younger men? Posted: 6/9/2008 7:08:12 PM | | I dont know why i was scared of dating a younger guy. I guess because your always afraid of them being inmature or not looking for the same things that i am in a relationship. exspecially when they dont have kids and i do.I have tried to be open minded lately. I have had some good converstions with some younger guys. | |

| Why are older women scared about dating younger men? Posted: 6/9/2008 7:21:39 PM | I am not 'afraid'. I don't want to waste my time with someone whose looking for bragging rights. I don't want to explain the Beattles or why something is funny.
I ask them "Why an older woman?" "What will you say when some says 'Is that your mother?"
The response has been "older women are better lovers". Not necessarily so. "Older women no what they want." Not all of them. I love this next one "Older women don't play games." A player is a player and if an older woman wants to plays games, she's much better at it.
I prefer a younger man, mainly because he's more likely to be able to keep up with me than someone my age. The youngest man to hit on me was 24 years old. My youngest grandchild is 14; the oldest 27. How can I take him seriously? | |

Posted: 6/9/2008 8:20:47 PM | | i dated a man 9 yrs younger for 4 years. then he started dating a 18 yr old behind my back. i'm trying to not let it effect the way i look at younger men. i guess i need someone to show me that a 20 something can be a grown up. since guys my age all seem to want to date young girls. | |

| Why are older women scared about dating younger men? Posted: 6/9/2008 8:22:42 PM | This older woman is not scared about dating younger men. Heavens, at MY age, I'm not very likely to find OLDER men!
I'm healthy, active, vibrant and full of spunk.... Why shouldn't I date anyone with whom I'm compatible...regardless of his age....well, within reason, of course....

| Why are older women scared about dating younger men? Posted: 6/9/2008 11:02:40 PM | | It has nothing to do with fear. I can't imagine dating someone younger then me, heck five years is pushing it for me. I have been hit on by younger men my son's age. Tho it's flattering, no way. Maturity, life experiences mmmmm. Many reasons but fear is not one of them. And going along with others, I am not into teaching. I prefer older men or atleast near my age. | |

| Why are older women scared about dating younger men? Posted: 6/12/2008 2:34:23 PM | As a guy who has dated women older than me (and for the ones that can do math, I am 27, and I have dated 30, 35, 38, and 45 year olds singles, with boyfriends or husbands, and no that is not only what I date, but I happen to find really awesome women at that age, at that shows I know what the hell I am talking about) I can honestly say that they have been the best relationships I ever had. However, It is really annoying when the woman keeps remind you every single day how old she is and how insecure she feels about u, (because u might find a younger girl). I can honestly say that women should be more open to the idea of dating younger men, we have more life, better in bed, more active, less drama, AND IF WE ARE DATING SOMEONE OLDER THAN US, IT MEANS U ARE REALLY ATTRACTIVE AND WE PROBABLY NOT LOOKING FOR SOMEONE ELSE....
The one thing I love about dating women older than me is when u meet them and they look sad or depressed, or just tired...from their work, or husbands...and when u start dating them.... all the life comes back to them and they GLOW...it is really an amazing thing to see | |

| Why are older women scared about dating younger men? Posted: 10/28/2008 1:41:25 PM | I find this response interesting....
I have always dated younger guys. The only time I did date someone older it was only by a few months.
I find that with the older guys, they always seemed to be set in their ways, and by that I mean they already know what they like to do with you or in their time off. They all like their Harley's and outdooor water sports, etc...
While I may think you look sexy on your bike, does not mean I want to ride. Boating is fun, but not the ONLY thing there is to do on a nice weekend. I have grown frustrated as I get older and my friends tell me that I should be dating "guys more my own age". I don't find that they like to bend too much. They will give, but as long as it is something that they enjoy. They will pay for the trip to the river and promise you a good time, but if I say "Let's go see this amazing band in Hollywood tonight!", I seem to get the "That's so far away." or "Wouldn't you rather make a whole weekend at the (insert your sport or activity of choice here) instead of just one night in Hollywierd?"
Sorry, but no thank you. I do enjoy outdoor sports and activities, but can't we include some outdoor concerts or roadtrips to see a show?  | |

| Why are older women scared about dating younger men? Posted: 10/28/2008 8:43:30 PM | I don't think it is a matter of being scared. For me it is a matter of personal choice. I will date guys maybe 4 years younger then myself but I chose not to date anyone in their 20's or early 30's...call me a snob...some younger men have. The way I see it is that guys in their 20's are trying to find their way in life..they're entering college, finishing college, starting a (if not several)careers and thinking about starting a family. Similar to the guys in their early 30's. That is not where I am at in life nor what I want in a partner. We are two totally different developmental age levels and for me that makes a difference.
Younger guys always try to entice me with telling me that the are great lovers because they are younger. I have not had an issue finding guys to satisfy me in my age bracket. I don't find it a compliment either when a guy refers to me as a MILF. I want someone I can mature in my life with not be their mother or Mrs Robinson(rite of passage).
Nope, not scared....just searching for more then a hot time in bed...call me "old" fashion. | |

| Why are older women scared about dating younger men? Posted: 10/28/2008 8:50:03 PM | | because they probably realise that much younger men will play a while and Poof. Somewhere down the line, the younger guy is going to decide he needs to go find something younger to make babies with | |

| Why are older women scared about dating younger men? Posted: 10/29/2008 9:06:55 AM | Oh gosh I get asked this alot. And my feeling on this is it depends on the age of the younger man. I do not automatically turn down a guy based on age unless he is 20 or younger. If you aren't old enough to buy me a drink legally .. then I don't see any point in us going out. Kinda like at the amusement parks and they have a guideline for riding the rides. If you aren't tall enough to ride this ride you can't get on..
It's honestly about mentality and maturity. So I will not generalize age at all. God knows I have dated some seriously immature 30 somethings. If you are 23 and a know what it's like to be a man and live your life like a man then age doesn't matter to me. It's weird when I was alot younger I was attracted to older guys and now I am attracted to younger guys physically lol.
The main thing is if you dig me for me not because I am 33 and your Ms. Stiffler fantasy or something like that then it is cool. I can not stand the term MILF! | |

| Why are older women scared about dating younger men? Posted: 10/29/2008 10:17:35 AM | First, I'm not "scared" of anything. Second when you say "younger" how much younger? I ask because I have a 23 year old son and after dealing with the 18 - 25 year old young men in my family alone it's 80% adolescent agonizing....a.k.a undesirable drama I can live without.
Not scared but I'd be annoyed most of the time with a young man. A young mans mind is nowhere near where mine is (except maybe sex) and that doesn't make for a healthy well balanced relationship for me.
Now if we are talking FWB then I'm game. I actually prefer men a little younger than myself, but not a written in stone.
However,... I will not say I would "never" date a young man, for I am very sure there are some young men out there more *cough* mature than some men my own age. | |

| Why are older women scared about dating younger men? Posted: 10/29/2008 12:11:27 PM | Ten years up or down it really doesn't matter.
I dated a man for few months before the subject of age came up and it turned out he is quite a few years younger.
So what, we had a great time, he was absolutely charming, I'd do it all over again.
Youger guys have their good points, older guys have their own pluses. As long as you both have a good time, who cares? | |

| Why are older women scared about dating younger men? Posted: 10/29/2008 6:16:32 PM | I am definitely not afraid of it! In fact, I'd rather go with someone 5 yrs younger than 5 yrs older. I am younger in body and spirit than most women my age and fit in with them better than older, more tired folks.
However, what I dont want is someone 15 years younger than me since they just aren't mature or experienced in life.
The only real frightening thing for everyone is younger men are not going to be willing to "settle down" so unfortunately most of us will be wasting our time if we want anything out of it. To be successful with a man is all about timing in his life. If you dont have that timing, it doesnt matter how oustanding you are. | |

| Why are older women scared about dating younger men? Posted: 10/29/2008 8:33:05 PM | Scared? Im not scared. I just find that most men I date are my age or older due to the maturity level. I don't generalize though because I have met many immature older men and a few mature younger men. But I have always stated I do not want to be anyones teacher and I already have 3 sons and don't want a 4th. | |

| Why are older women scared about dating younger men? Posted: 10/29/2008 10:08:15 PM | | Where did you hear that one? Have you not checked the statistics lately? Older women are dating younger men. Maybe it's because older men are dating younger women? Anyway, the point is you have been sadly mistaken. | |
