Older Women And Younger Men Dating.... What Do You Think?Page 10 of 12    (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12)

I'd not say I'm actively looking for someone younger, but the reality is I often have more in common with them.


Spot on. That is exactly where I'm coming from.Men my own age are so....old.

cinders just seen your age omg you look fantastic . Toyboy is needed youd give an older guy a heart attack women ...
The so old i gotta agree with hence why im the trouble with a capitol T that told maltesers to go for younger .
Its not just how they look its how they act so darn set on there ways .can older men be im not ready to calm down im for liveing. (WILD)
This is how it is with older men my opinion is lets go with the floo and bloody laugh .


CINDERS noticed your a leo would take a younger man to tame you lol thats from a fellow leo full of life and never forget mischief

Well, it depends...What is the age gap of the woman and man? (2,4,8,10,12 years?)
If it's not much, it's not important because they're close in age. However, if it's 15 years...the other question is how good does the woman look for her age as well?
If she's much older and looks really old, then the guy might be in it for money or to be taken care of...also, maybe she just wants company, a partner to go places with.
However, I personally wouldn't date someone younger than me, I like prehistoric men.

I have dated a guy 22 years younger - absolutely loved it - had a wonderful time, really blew the cobwebs away for me. Then I sent him back home to his Mum
Can't beat a young un - now and again, just don't get silly about it - go with the flow -

I've noticed all of a sudden my profile is being viewed by a lot of older (late forties to early sixties) women since I changed my profile pic!! I'm not sure why, I don't think it makes me look significantly older (I'm 33).

I've been in a relationship with someone 10 years older than me, but I'm not sure I'd go as high as 20 years - I guess it depends on who that person was, I wouldn't rule out the idea entirely...

Read this in someone's favourite comic and it might give some answers. I think it's true to say that women make more effort to look after themselves as they get older, whereas many men simply don't bother and this is what puts the women off them, not the date on their birth certificate.

I get alot of messages from younger men, would i date one? maybe up to 5 years younger, more than that would just feel wrong. I like men not boys!

I can't remember if it was on this thread or a similar one, but someone stated that they're flexible about age differences up until the partner is old enough to be their parent or young enough to be their child - that sounds about right for me too.

I'm flattered by any attention I get, and some of those women were very attractive (if not in my age group). None of them contacted me, so I assume they either mistook me for an older man, or were just having a quick perv at my pics!

Synergy...checked out the link, hilarious, and so appropriate

THATS exactly the reason why I like men a little younger...men my own age are simply old before their time and I'm not quite ready to live a sedentary lifestyle just yet.

I would totally go out with an older woman, up to twice my age probably (I'm 28).

Especially in their 40's, and probably 50's too, but admittedly only if they are, or get really fit. (Yes I am a bit shallow I guess)

Women do seem to be really young these days. I'd absolutely go out with a woman in her 40's.

It's down to the individuals involved. There are pros and cons to it, but if they're both adults it's up to them. I date younger men but also guys my age; it's depends on the man, and how we get on, not his age. JMO

I was in a relationship with a women 23 years older than myself. It was amazing, we got on so well, we were so alike. For some reason women (not all of them! lol) older than me just get me and like me.

What I've never understood is when a older man is dating a younger girl it's high fives all round and "good for him!" but when it's the other way round it's generally seen as wrong.

Very true. Strange that. But then some of us don't worry about what others say.

Nah... not for me... I dated a younger guy once... It was fun, he was lovely like 6'4", always in the gym...(Weird) But a man nonetheless. responsible, very funny and age wasn't an issue because he didn't make it an issue.
I am a sucker for caveman-like behaviour so when he scooped me up and threw me over his shoulder and said "let's go!" as he was jogging down the street, I couldn't stop laughing... My daughter was like "put my mum down!"
He was a funny, irreverent person, that's the youth thing... Like a breath of fresh air...
Problems were: he didn't /couldn't really fit in with my friends...
(His friends although nice enough, seemed not as smart as him)
I never dated a guy who wore white brand new trainers, Ralph Lauren Polo shirts...
Musical tastes waaay too different. Intolerant of other males
Oh yeah, very different sense of humour... some things one simply cannot joke about with a younger man...

I have a simple rule. As long as they are closer in years to my age than my kids they are fair game :)

from a physical aspect i prefer younger men, but that said, i have met younger men who are also more gentlemanly, intelligent, and articulate than men my own age.

i guess at the end of the day it's about gelling with someone on a physical and intellectual level and not really caring how old they/you are....as long as you get on that's all that matters.

regards to all.

i agree totally with what you're saying.....an older guy with a younger girl seem acceptable but vice versa is seen as wrong....i don't see what difference it makes if both parties are happy with each other, no matter which one is older.

Its probably seen as a bit stranger for a younger guy and a cougar to get together because an older male can still have children a bit later on in life and we're still living in a world where the general ideal is to have children and raise a family... naturally. Plus being successful is something women generally look for in the other sex more often than vice versa and an older man is more likely to have achieved than their younger self. Whether its right or wrong who is really to say but those are my thoughts on why people are more accepting of the male being older.
