Oh man so now I should encourage young guys to go for older and encourage older women to go for younger and just sit by? Thanks makes me realize things more. Sorry young guys my bad, don't listen to this old chump ok?
Just I come to realize older women are very set in their ways and they want the control factor so when a man is set in his ways it is a big no no. Only women are allowed to be. Just some truth to the matter. In women's eyes they seem to say we men are only set in our ways they are never ever set in their ways. never knew that and I don't believe that.

since this thread has lost its meaning... and i for one have contributed to its detour...

Women may NOT be into younger men for NOT being seen as objects,, or NOT wanting to be rocking the cradle.. NOT wanting to be labelled the MILF or GILF or COUGAR.. Or NOT wanting to be SUGAR MAMA.. I know SOME women who dont find that type attention flattering at all. Some PEOPLE still enjoy the company of PEOPLE their own age.. hopefully because they offer each other the goals that are at that stage in life..

What if a 25 yr old PERSON chooses to want children... or travel the world... there are many thing a young person may not see in the same light as someone my mature years.

i personally may date.. but wouldnt not consider a serious relationship with a person significantly older or younger... I want to be at the relative same place in life with my partner...to move forward together .... It would suck to always have someone who has been there and done that.

Thank you Fireand Ice

Well thought out response and very logical. Why is that some people constantly derail threads to pontificate on a completely opposite question?



I date the men who I fit with best....the ones who are at the relative same place and who have the same interests and desires and goals as I do. Obviously I am not interested in dating a man who wants a family nor am I going to be dating one who is planning on retiring in the next couple of years.

Seems pretty logical to me.

Oh...and I find both COUGAR and MILF to be definite INSULTS.

Luckily I have never gotten a MILF or Cougar comment, probably because I look younger than every guy I have ever dated =) So even though I might have a boyfriend who is 7yrs younger than me, no one can ever guess just by looking!

My attitude? Oh and never did I put any blame on anyone, no clue where you got that from. Like I am supposed to enjoy the bashing from so many and enjoy the praises sung about the young guys? Cut me some slack here. Older women dating younger men is fine but to bash those guys the same age all the time, becomes a bit hurtful to some. When I have not yet met a woman and she says something like "I only date younger" then tells me why, she is obviously telling me I am not good enough based on the previous guys she has met or dated. So in return I should say? Oh you are so right? Come on. Just like how older women bash younger women saying then "Oh she likes you for your money"
If someone says a younger woman likes the older men for his money and then older women like younger men because the older guys are boring, etc, are those to make us old chumps feel good are they not put downs towards us? We are good enough for our money to younger women and worthless crap to women our age. Hmm I don't see where my attitude is so bad. maybe if some would give guys their age a chance then things would be a bit better?

Seems the only two posts that make sense are the two from Fire and from Fox really. All the others are about bashing an age to justify dating a younger one..no?

Also the post above is an example how most younger women in their 20's will stick to men in their 20's. So you wonder why men in their 20's are so confident? Geez if I had an age range that span from 19-59 I think I would be confident big time in dating.

As an ''Older woman'' if I am chatted up by a younger man my immediate reaction is suspicion.I ask myself ''Does he think I am desperate '' '' Have his mates put him up to it '' ........all sorts of things go through my mind. I usually joke and ask if they are drunk and then say '' Buzz off '' but thank you for making an old woman happy !!! Dont take it personally my friend.Most of us older women have sons your age and a young un wrinkled man on my arm would make me very aware of my laughter lines.Thats all.
I hate this monster as well

Well, I will give you a reason why. I have been dating a man for about 3 months now, 8 years my junior. I was a bit apprehensive at first, but he was charming and smart and we hit it off great. We are both divorced, we have spent a lot of time together, especially over the holidays with family and friends, some who have small children. Last night we get home, watching a movie and he looks at me very sweetly and asks "wouldn't you like to have a child?" I think I went into shock as this was the main reason for my divorce. He knew going into this I was not looking to have a child. I think I may still be in shock, where this will go I am not sure but this may be a reason why older women are so cautious with younger men. I don't think anyone should ever be deprived of the priviledge of being a parent and I wonder at times if I missed something, but medically it would be very difficult for me to have a child. I wouldn't mind if a man already had children, I think I would enjoy it, but this was a total shock and now I am not sure what to do.

Nope it is not a big deal. Most of us old guys are over the hill when we hit 35 and me being close to 40 I more or less have given up on this whole dating game. Men under 30 have their game on and are the men all women 19-50 want. Used to bother me but now I encourage women who are my age and older to not bother with us guys but go for the best. Why settle for tuna when you can have cavier I say.
Plus what most younger guys have on us too is they have a career not a job. Women today, especially late 30's and older, want a guy to have a career. Just a job that pays well, forget it they think you are full of crap when you say you make decent money.
I think you will see more and more women leaving their men for younger too, and why not, as many of them say men did it in the past. So guys be prepared to suck it up and pay the price for the past. Oh and NO younger women are not into old guys, they say that is disgusting. As the saying goes...life goes on LOL...now where are them older women over 50?


You started your comments on this thread as saying that guys that hit 35 are 'over the hill' and that they should give up, including you. I'm 46 and I do NOT considered myself over the hill....in my experience, 'men under 30 don't have their 'game on'. ....and then you go on about 'encouraging women who are your age and older to 'not bother with us guys' and to go for the best! (what the fark does that mean!?) I certainly am not 'looking' for younger men nor am I looking for older men....who I'm hoping to meet is a man who has the same interests as I do including moral values....I certainly would not consider dating someone who is wanting to have a family or doesn't have a 'career' (fulltime job)....I have been there and doing that! Age is a friggin number 'champ' and this 'mature' person only hopes to meet the same kind of 'mature' person who is established and to share a life with regardless of age! Did I make any sense ta ya!?

^^^FireandIce^^^

Just because a woman is older than you, that doesn't mean that she has "been there and done that". NOT!!!!. I have lived a pretty sheltered life and by no means been around the block. I do have the wisdom...(there's that word again)...behind me and wouldn't give that up for anyone or anything.

If a man is looking towards dating an older woman, that usually means he may not want any children in his life and is NOT looking for that type of a relationship. Now YOU are and that's ok...your preference... but NOT for everyone.

Why....... Can't women in their 40's, 50's or 60's..are they NOT able to travel the world?..come on..get real.

I'm into today's music...I don't dress like an older person..I've been mistaken for someone in my 30's and no where near the age that I'm at. Therefore, I must look young, dress young, because I think young and only a "number" is my age. But don't mistake that for stupidity or naivity.

If you prefer someone around your age...then find someone around your age...that's your preference. I can understand that you still may want children.

But the subject of this thread is still "Why are older women NOT into younger guys"? which you HAVE contributed to its detour and way off the starting subject.

JMO

Have a prosperous, safe and Happy 2007 to FireandIce, The Champ, to the rest of the wonderful people on this thread and all of you who are on this fun site.

Hmm what is the word...oh yes I was being fecesious and sarcastic. Because gee as I said like a broken record...these women who want younger men seem to put down the older guys...so I was going along with that by saying the things in that quote there....thought maybe people could read between the lines. Wow.
And when someone says mature why do they so many times say the guys in their 20's are more mature than us? Are they always? And just because a guy say 43 may have a receding hairline, so he does not want to go to the hairclub for men, I am sure he does not want you to go get the corws feet taken care off. Men age and we get totally bashed for it, I do not get it.
let's see a guy 24 is better looking as he is 13 years younger than me, a guy 24 lots of times has a school loan to pay back, I am not in debt and know how to handle my finances, a guy 24 is most times NOT ALL (I know some testy youn guys will jump in and say they do not barhop etc) will be out partying every weekend blowing say a hundred bucks, I am past blowing my money on stuff like that would rather go on trips for example. Just an example of how us old guys are very much worth it. Just have to give it a chance ladies is all.
When you hear/read women say negative things about men her age when I am sure it is not 30-50 she has dated, but maybe 3-5 over a 4-5 year period, those guys do not set the precident for the rest of us. Just like the 3-5 young guys who may rock your world in bed sure do not set the precident for the young guys. But seems that is what has happened on here at least.
I know I am worth it, given the chance, but hey that is not up to me. As I say many times, not my loss at all because I know overall? I am way better as a lover at 37 than any 24 yr old is. And if that is taken as a bash against the young guys so be it. Because sometimes the truth has to be heard.

I hate to break your balls, Champ... and don't take this the wrong way, but attitude is everything. Well, attitude and a body like a Greek god. I have attitude, and every day I smoke the dog crap out of my soldiers with very hard morning PT. Bear in mind most of these kids are 18-20 years younger than me. I PT their asses until they either puke, cry, or pass out. You can beat them at their own game. I do... frequently and often. If after all the exercises and attitude adjustments work, and you can start pulling 19yr old girls away from their self-absorbed boyfriends, then you will be ready, my young padawan... but never settle for the pasture. The horses that end up in the pasture today, are the ones that wake up on the truck to the glue factory tomorrow.

Like it or not older women think younger men are the best and the way to go for dating and finding a partner, but like it or not, men their age are better and the women just cannot handle the fact they do not have control where there have all control over the younger guys.
I know I am great and have alot ot offer, but when women say "Oh you are 37 forget it you are just like the rest of them" I realize that they just do not know what they lost out on.
So go for your young studs, get the amazing sex because in 10 years I don't think those young studs will want you then. And so maybe us old chumps then in our late 40's will be worth it to date?

If anyone claims to have all older women figured out, you'd think they'd have a best-selling book or a talk show or both to prove their expertise.

younger or older? The right question would be how does he treat me or does he care? If a fellow cares he will treat you fair and square regardless of age.

I changed my profile today to "just here for the forums" because I found that after about three weeks or so of actually trying to write something to go out and date a few people I got at least a dozen of these requests from guys 20 years younger than me and not much else.

I've written here before that I don't feel comfortable dating someone my kid's age and I really don't know what it is we'd have in common. I guess what bothers me the most is that there is a presumption that we are going to be really hot in bed or perhaps so flattered at being considered that we'd be grateful which is even worse.

You do realize many women on here will say you are missing out on something good and also try to encourage you to try a young guy.

There is no way I'm dating someone young enough to be my Son!! 10 years younger is fine but that's about it.
And as far as the "banana".....they look like cucumbers to me!! LOL
