Posted: 7/8/2012 2:54:53 AM | | I think that's the whole point, they want a younger person to answer their advert! I always steer clear of people who say they are young for their age, they act younger or a young thinking etc etc, usually because they are subtly saying they want younger. | |

Posted: 7/8/2012 2:59:58 AM | | He's probably trying to say that he doesn't want to attract someone of the same age who is dull, with no energy and sits in every night. He probably wants someone with the same outlook as he has. It wouldn't wind me up, because I'm 47 and I also feel 25 inside and sometimes when I am out, I do forget my age.... | |

Posted: 7/8/2012 3:13:04 AM | They'll also usually have an age range on their mail settings of 25-52. Major denial, delusion and screams of someone having a mid life crisis. They also say their "friends don't think i look my age"...as if a friend is going to say "actually, you look like shyte".
I've seen so many people say members of the opposite sex in their age group look really old as if they alone are some kind of genetic freak blessed with eternal youth. Some people need to throw out the fairground mirror and take a serious reality check.
Most 25 yr olds act a damn sight more mature than a 50 yr old thinking they're still 25. | |

It wouldn't wind me up, because I'm 47 and I also feel 25 inside and sometimes when I am out, I do forget my age.... and that doesn't surprise me andaloosa because you look full of life's energy. I feel exactly the same.
I have to admit, though, that I do sometimes wonder that when a guy states that in his profile he is trying to convince whoever reads it that he might look a worn out old man in his pics but there is some life in him yet!
I would prefer to meet those who's pictures show they have volumes of life in their face, who look like they are fun and full of energy and who's profile reads enrgetically too ... then I think they might be able to keep up with me! | |

I'm 50, but act 25.
If someone said that to me, I'd probably think that they haven't learned very much.
I'm always a bit wary of people who try too hard to "have a good time".
We seem to have 'caught' that American obsession with shouting "Woo", to prove we're having a good time.
I don't think people should declare themselves to be "young looking, or acting", like intelligence and beauty, I think those descriptions are best left to the opinions of others.
And anyway, the word "acting" really speaks for itself. 
After joining this site, I think I've finally realised how incredibly old I am.
It's a fact. It's there, 'in black and white'.
There is no escape from your age.
You can keep yourself fit, and fight 'the battle of the bulge'.etc.
In the end, it's all down to your genes. (Although obviously 'lifestyle' plays a part)
If you don't 'fancy' people of your own age, they'll probably feel the same about you.
Give up, would be my advice.

Posted: 7/8/2012 5:21:39 AM | Age is just a number, I agree. However, along with that number as it increases, should come maturity and eventual aging of our bodies. You may think you look years younger than your actual age because you believe the little white lies people tell to flatter you, but for the most part we look our age. It amazes me how many people actually believe this compliment pertains to them but not others. Let you in on a little secret--- most of us get told "you look at least 10 years younger!" I appreciate the gesture, but I would never delude myself into thinking I look 25.
By the way, there's nothing wrong with looking and acting your real age. Why can't it simply be that you're still full of life at your real age? I'm 64 and I'm still full of life and into having fun. I'm not looking for someone who says, "I'm just a kid in a grown man's body." That tells me he needs a mother, not a romantic relationship. I want someone near my age but who (among other qualities) is also fit, active, fun, enthusiastic, and adventuresome.
Woz1968--- you're so right. | |

Posted: 7/8/2012 5:22:56 AM | "Young at Heart" is another that winds me the fcuk up "X age, but told I look younger" ( By the last desperate tw@t trying to throw a mix up you) followed by "I'm really X age, but I got a little confused when I was filling it in" So, slow onset Alzheimers, but you're trying to come all Peter Pan up in here?
They're the same profiles, that will only date at their age or 25 years younger, most blokes here have seen that and have thought the same thing "Rock that cradle you silly cow" Conversely I've seen photos of women older than me, who frankly must be bathing in Virgin's blood, they look that hot, yet are only seeking to date in their immediate age range.
I like reading profiles of older women who are obviously not going to go quietly onto that Saga Cruise. They have photos of themselves outdancing their daughters, or of themselves having outrageous fun, but they don't need to broadcast it in their profiles. The message is there. "If you're a codger, keep jogging if you can manage it"
I feel 25 inside when the situation demands it, luckily I'm still fit enough to run a mile and a half in 10 minutes without having a heart attack , and can still crank out situps and pressups galore. Yes, I do attract younger women, christ knows why, I just do. It's down to outlook and taking it as it comes. I am not averse to party hearty, especially with a couple of pints of Apple goodness onboard, but I sure as hell am not going to try and pass myself off, as any other age than I am, or deliberately start trawling for a relationship with women ridiculously younger than me. Take it or leave it Ladies. | |

Posted: 7/8/2012 7:26:19 AM | I've said it before but it's worth re-iterating, age is a frame of mind, in a couple of weeks I shall have my 58th birthday, I dont act in an immature way trying to keep down with kids and embarrassing myself...but I am also not sitting around waiting for god either...I treasure every day, I try to keep up with current suituations, keep myself informed (as I want and need to be).
Life is grand. | |

Posted: 7/8/2012 10:47:44 AM | i work with a couple of women in their mid twenties and easily keep up with them physically and mentally, but there is no way i would want to be their age again..
i steer well clear of blokes that aspire to be younger.. i just picture all the drama that comes with it.. *shudder* | |
