What is it about men 40+ trying to talk to young women
Posted: 3/9/2009 5:55:08 AM
Let me see. Is a 60+ year old man who tries to get close to a 40+year old woman being a fool? Far as I can tell, both are "old folks" in that the reproductive thing is done and over with for both. If they are happy together then what is the issue?

Trouble is, there are old and decrepit 40+ men and women, and active and vital 80+ people... You have to find a match, and age is not the best predictor...

I am a 25 yr old... I tend to find myself attracted to guys in their early or mid 40's... I see nothing wrong with it ...

Whatever floats your boat right ?

its the same ones who buy the convertable automobiles that thank dating a younger woman and driving a hot rod car will make them feel younger..At 47, I dont care to date a 20 year old. we have 2 total differant worlds ....I have already had a family,got a couple kids, and ready to settle down and find someone who is in a similiar situation, where the 20 yr old is worried about how much her phone bill is going to be this month after texting her friend about who she laid last night with the details....and how she can afford a nice sports car to ride in.... go figure.

Young women look hot (but so do a lot of 40+es) and young women are in that magical age of excitement, enchantment and romance, with their whole world ahead of them and open to experimentation. If you find an old guy is gross, kindly delete or reject him and move on.

Maybe we think that you think that you're fed up with guys your age because they're puppy dogs who can't see past their d--ks, whereas we know how to be sweet to a lady, yet still (some of us without the aid of Viagra) can find our d--ks...and have the wisdom and experience to know how to use them, for your pleasure as well as ours.

I'm open to meeting anyone at any age for any kind of fun. But...given future goals of kids...well, better stick to the young guns/pups.

If porn star Peter North is any indication, 40+ men CAN stay in great shape. I realize he's a poor moral example of a man, but I'm sure he treats his thousands of hotties well.

As with all stereotypes, there is a bit of truth in there, but far from "all the truth". Many men, post divorce, do seek out younger women, out of some ego need to receive external validation that they "still have it". It's usually a short lived phase, though, because as one gets involved with younger women, one discovers that they are individual persons, not "objects".

I have had two "live with" relationships with women 20+ years younger, and while there are differences, as a relationship settles in, it's not vastly different from same age relationships. Age soon becomes relatively unimportant, compared to the day to day issues of living with another person, and most of the time, you're not even aware of it, until you get strange looks out in public.

Having recently ended a 4 year relationship with a woman 28 years younger, I'm sort of "taking a break" from dating. However, when I start "looking" again, age won't be a major consideration. It hasn't been for a long time. I have found women close to my age to be attractive, and for me, that's the first thing that draws me to someone, whether she's 60 or 20. The big difference is, I would readily initiate contact with someone within 10 years of my age, whereas with younger women, my experience has been that it really only works, if she initiates the conversation.

Never hurts to try....so people (men and women alike) do.
Just say no thanks and leave it at that; HOWEVER....
...IMO, if you were serious about not wanting the attention,
you would put restrictions on your mail.

Seems like more of an attention getter thread unless you really believe
that men hitting on younger women is something new.
If you believe that, you're not mentally mature enough to be on here

Those 40+ men who only want to talk to 25 yr. women reminds me of Millionaire Matchmaker, the owner has this problem constantly. But then the men who are her clients I find are mostly losers (if you listen to them talk you will see why) they also can't even relate to a 25 yr. old when they date.
But most still don't seem to learn the lesson she tries to teach them.

Oh how Yucky some old smelly guy wants to talk to a younger woman. How dare they!
OP get over yourself. Who Knows maybe just maybe you will find someone that has something interesting to say.
In the past I have dated much younger women. No it wasn't just about sex or arm candy. We had things in common and enjoyed each others company.
I am now seeing someone that is 4 years younger and we are happy.
