| One third of older women date younger men
Posted: 2/26/2007 3:41:16 AM | When I was 40, I had a pretty serious affair with a 26 year old. WOW! It was marvelous. I didn't really worry too much about the age thing, but I did worry about the fact that we wanted pretty different things. He wanted children, I had already raised mine, etc. I did get appreciation for the adoration you receive when you teach a young lover something new though. They follow you around like a puppy, which is fun for a bit. The bottom line is I will never regret it. We had a wonderful time. He is now married and has two small sons and is happy. I did my part to make him a much better husband and he made me a much happier woman. So viva la' differance. If it works just go with it.
A hui hou!  | |

Posted: 3/28/2007 10:06:03 PM | | I had to jump on the band wagon on this forum. Maybe women are dating and marrying younger men because the younger ones can still do pushups, stay awake through the evening, and want to romance their lady unlike SOME older men. Hearing, Darlin, can I have a rain check night after night, refusing to pop that little blue pill if they experience difficulty, or reminding us that neither of us is a spring chicken anymore..... what a crock is that. Anyone or anything that makes you feel alive, wanted, appreciated, loved and toned gets my vote. The whole idea is to raise the kiddies and let them leave the nest. Then mom and pop become a couple again with nothing holding them back from anything they want to do or experience. So if the older than me guys can't keep up, or don't think they are missing anything by vegging on a couch, I say go for the ones who will even if it means they are younger. | |

Viva la célibataire! | |

Posted: 3/29/2007 9:26:24 AM | | I agree. Age should have no relevance. Those who click, should; those who don,t move on. The main thing is to find a compatibility with the person you are with. All things should fall into place after that. Some ladies want couch potatos and are glad they are not bothered. others would feel crushed if ignored. So whatever floats your boat. But if it's good for the guys to date younger, I say it should be ok for us. Ain't this dating a bummer sometimes. Like a fulltime job. I agree with alot of what I have read on these sites. With all the people out there looking, why does it have to be so difficult. | |

Posted: 3/29/2007 4:32:31 PM | | When I was younger I always said I would never date a younger man. Then I married one 9 years younger than me. Boy was that a mistake! I, personally, want to date men my age (or at least over 50) because I think that one's priorities change the older you get in life. Much to my dismay, it seems like so many of the men in that age group say they want to date 30-45 year olds. I do want sex to be an important part of my relationship after being in a sexless one for over 7 years, but I don't want it to be the only reason for the relationship! | |

Posted: 3/30/2007 12:31:38 PM | This is an interesting post for me. I get more flirts from younger men than older. What is considered a younger man - 5 years to me doesn't make much difference. I think it's how you relate and what your interests are. I certainly don't want to date a man closer to my son's age than to mine. However, I think women are aging better these days, don't you?

Posted: 3/30/2007 1:41:29 PM | | I'm 46 and my last boyfriend was 10 years younger than me -- and it was one of the best relationships I've ever had. I'd date a younger man again in a heartbeat! | |

Posted: 3/30/2007 10:24:27 PM | When I was 23, I married a man 14 years older than me. It lasted 10 years. Age was a factor.
When I was 33, I went back to grad school, everybody I was meeting was 10 or 11 or 12 years younger than me. We were doin' the same stuff, listening to the same music, what can I say? Most of my women friends are 10 to 15 years (in one case 33 years) younger than me, also.
When I was 41, met a guy 16 years younger than me, it felt like about five years. Marriage lasted 12 years. His being Chinese contributed a great deal more to any problems we had than the age difference.
My last three relationships have been five years, two years, and 16 years younger than me.
The one difference, in me, that I've always noticed, is that if he's more than 10 years younger, I don't ever approach him. I always let him make the first move. I've contacted men here older than me by about five years, but it doesn't seem to take. And there are just not that many. . . . Also, I'm blocked out of plenty of "age appropriate" fellas age ranges themselves. I've seen plenty of profiles where the guy's willing to go down 30 or 40 years, and up one year older than him, lol! (been writing these fellas off for 35 years. . . )
POF seems to have changed some of the dynamics here though: by actually putting my age up, a lot of people make a decision based on that, rather than what they are seeing, feeling, experiencing. No biggie: plenty of fishies.

Posted: 4/1/2007 8:07:45 AM | I am 55 and I met a man that was 20 years younger than me at ShugaMama.com 6 mos ago and I must say that I was a bit skeptical about this whole idea of dating a younger man. Now 6 mos later, I am the happiest that I have ever been in a very long time. I say go for it ladies !! | |

Posted: 4/1/2007 1:14:54 PM | Young men like older women because they are more likely to want sex.
They also tend to be more adventurous and experienced than teenage women. | |

Posted: 4/4/2007 3:21:38 AM | | It always amazes me when someone puts out these statistics lmao. I have seen threads saying older women do not like younger men or most older women like younger men. We do not know for sure what the stats are I would imagine. Fact is there is no right or wrong - it is all personal preference. | |

Posted: 6/27/2007 7:46:30 AM | | I don't think I would like to date a younger man. Nothing more than 5 years younger anyway. Heck I am still waiting for many of the men my own age to grow up! | |

Posted: 6/27/2007 8:49:13 AM | K ... so if one-third of older women date younger men, then that means that one-third of younger women will be without dates.
Hmmmm ... seems a shame for me not to try to help out this very sad and unfortunate situation, donut ??
See ?? ... the sacrifices I'm willing to make to help out the 'human condition'?

Posted: 6/27/2007 11:09:26 AM | OK so we have apx 30%of older woman now dating younger guys. It is also about 30% or so of woman over 45 that no longer of any desire for sex. Of course the woman here on POF are working hard to disprove those statistics 
So for us 50 year old plus guys that means the picking are slim. At least they are if we don't have Donald Trumps Bank Balance.
My disclaimer; Please read this with just a touch of good humor and cheer. This is by no means rant on my part. The fact is despite the lack of funds I have still met some wonderful woman in all age groups. | |

Posted: 6/27/2007 2:26:25 PM | What I call older is if you are a 60 years old woman and you are dating a man of 40 years old  ....just like in "Harold and Maude " movie
Less than at least 20 years of age difference ...that mean this is not that old or that young  | |
