My, my. ...the longest thread on POF. Age is certainly down the line in importance. Chemistry, sense of humor, intellect, character and so on are far more impotant than age. I have dated men as much as 25 years younger and founds some to be mature, fun, sweet and attractive with far better attitudes than so many grumpy old men.

Its awesome, I have had an encounter with a 39 year old female, and I personally love it. Myself as being young 28 years old, I feel as though an older woman can satisfy all of my needs. Younger females are too ghetto.

the younger guy can't **** any chicks his age so he goes for the desperate cougar. simple as that.

its not that they're more experienced, mature, all that bullshit. its that they're desperate and the guys can't get any better.

I have always been intriqued with the idea of fancing an older woman but I have always kept it in my imagination and left it at that. I also could never really tell if they were interested in me being that I never really put it to test in a real situation. Hey maybe I am not that attractive to older women who knows as I guess only older women can answer that question. So what do you think it is there ladies?

I dated a guy who is a couple of years older than me who used to date older women. Women in their 40s and i even think one in her 50s. I find it odd, and maybe a fetish of some sort. But he liked me too and I was younger so maybe it was a maturity thing..lol

Ugh...my boyfriend was dating a woman 22 years his senior before me. People are often shocked when he tells them how old she was, but he now considers it to be part of "growing up". They lasted about 2 years, before it eventually got "too hard" for her. I'm older than him too........but only by 8 days. lol.

Depends on the age gap and the people involved. I prefer younger men myself but not more than 10 years or so.
Men have always preferred the younger woman in the main and why shouldnt women? We are hotter longer these days and a lot of guys like an sexperienced woman.

so there are only older women who want to date younger men for sex?

i don't know about others but if i prefer a long term relationship with an older woman, no flings for me.

It is your life... Like money, You spend it as you please. And so does the person your with.
If you like being with young guys its your choice, no one else's.
It has its advantages and drawbacks, and if it works for you, it works for you.
Your free to do so within reason. Just as older men can date younger women.
If they want to be with you that's their choice.
So as long as both parties are good with their arrangement there really is nothing wrong.

As long as you feel the benefits outweigh the drawbacks, carry on.
But keep in mind, this may be temporary and you may need to change your strategy later on if your target audience is looking for better venues.

I started dating women a decade or more older than me when I was in my twenties. Married a woman closer to my age, had kids. Shortly after the divorce I went back to older women and am happier that way.

My theory is that men when they are younger buy into the "experienced" thing and have a fling or two with someone older. Usually it is a guy in his early twenties who meets a thirty something at work or in college. Most go back to women their own age. But for a percentage of these guys older women will become their preference. It has little to do with sex. I mean, sex is sex and the age does not necessarily equate with experience or expertise in that area. Instead, it comes down to who you are comfortable spending time with and who you tend to fall in love with. I am much more open and real with a woman older than me. I am less trusting with someone closer to my age and reveal less about myself.

The older women/younger men phenomenon is more out in the open these days with dating sites (easier to approach a woman and gauge her interest) and the media hyping it. But it has been around for decades if not centuries. It went on right underneath your noses; the professor and her teaching assistant, the woman and her younger co-worker, the guy who spends a little bit too much time at his upstairs neighbor's apartment. They were all getting it on.

I think it is cool. It depends on both how mature the younger man is first. Then how mature the older woman is second. Also it depends on the younger man's and older woman's personality, likes and interests. In theory it should work out due to the fact that younger men are at a sexual peak faster than women. So a younger man should actually be able to keep up with an older woman...in theory...lol. There are a lot of other factors, is one just looking to have fun? Or is onother wanting to settle down? There is no set in stone rule...the cool thing about being grown up is that there is no rule book! People can do what ever they want :)

I was involved with a great guy 17 years my junior. We carried on for nearly two years. Unfortunately, I developed feelings for him, but those feelings were not mutual. I ended up with a broken heart when he moved away for a new job. Not sure I would do this again as I have difficulty separating a physical only relationship without it turning into an emotional one as well.

My ex-husband was 4 years younger...and my now ex-boyfriend is 11 years younger...maybe this means it doesn't work for me? I've had many much younger guys contact me recently...but after meeting some of them knew it would never go anywhere. I think for me 10 yrs younger would be comfortable as I'm pretty active and open minded...and guys my own age seem to prefer women at least 10 yrs younger than themselves so it gives me more of a pool to fish in:)

LOL. Older women who can attract younger men are hardly "desperate."

Agreed. It's not that we are actively seeking them...in my case, they are looking for me! I prefer men my own age, but the only ones who even pay attention to me are 10 years younger or 20 years older...LOL..got a letter from a 23 year old last week. It was pretty cute.

I experienced that when I was younger and I loved it. An older woman and a younger man are more properly fit obviously sexually and in other respects.

I get in shit for dating my bf, im 26 and hes 21, alot of people think thats wrong but i say if your over 20 you can date someone whose in the age range, now if i was 35 and he was 21 then no. My sister married a man who was 13 years younger than her she was 35 and he was 22. it all depends on the age.

i think its wrong if a 26 year old women dates a 16 year old boy, thats a bit much...

I recently got contacted by a women 7 years older than me. I told her I wanted to date women my age or a little bit younger and told her she should do the same and date people age appropriate. She responded and said that she finds men her age "OLD". Yes, in caps, that is what she wrote. I was tempted to write back ... "well, I also find people my age "OLD" too, it sucks getting old but there is nothing we can do about it. Here is a test for you. You are 7 years older than me, try searching for men 7 years older than you. Since you find men your age to be old, what do you think of them? Find any you want to date? Now try my shoes, think I would want to date you? " Yeah, pretty harsh; I'm too nice to actually say something like that.

And here is the kicker. She actually is fairly attractive for her age. Since, I haven't found anyone here yet and wouldn't mind getting a little bit of sex on the side while I'm looking, so I was thinking perhaps a FWB situation.

Every wonder why people only respond with a sexual proposal? They don't want to date you but would be willing to have sex with you; on a regular basis if its good. How about this, are they age appropriate for you. If not, then there is your answer.

Your profile says you're looking for women up to 7 years younger, so evereything you've just said applies to you too. Why is it different for you?

What a gentleman you are.
