| One third of older women date younger men
Posted: 5/5/2006 8:15:43 AM | Just watching the Today show and they had a story about how according to a survey, one third of older women over 40 date younger men... LOL So go for it ladies...
NEW YORK, Sept. 29 — Demi Moore is not alone. Close to a third of unmarried American woman in their 40s through 60s who date are going out with younger men, according to one of the most sweeping surveys ever conducted on the dating habits and sex lives of mid-life singles. (MSNBC)

Posted: 5/5/2006 9:01:34 AM | | LOL....Does anyone stay, younger or older???? Actually I've been to several weddings in which the woman was older and they seem quite happy. But then one has to look at what is considered a younger man. I'm 39 and I once dated a man that was 35, technically that is considered a younger man but we still are in the same generation. Alot of these women could be dating men 5 to 10 years younger and I don't see why that couldn't work. I think extreme age differences however have a shorter shelf life, both among Older Men/Younger Women and Older Women/Younger Men. | |

Posted: 5/5/2006 5:25:08 PM | And I can see why. I can't find a man my age that even stays up until 11:00 pm. They are all so into fitness now (guess they're trying to impress the young ladies) that they are going to bed at 9:00 pm, just so they can get up early to go to the gym. What kind of a life is that? Not mine! | |

Posted: 5/5/2006 9:04:10 PM | LOL anlachok @ young men don't know any better, I am not sure some old farts do either 
Younger depends how young - 4-5 yrs not a bug deal 10-20 years a little different.
I'll stick to around my own age bracket  | |

Posted: 5/5/2006 9:06:57 PM | | Yes, men are finally seeing that age does not matter. The heart matters. There is no guarrantee a man older than a woman will stay with her. So the odds of a younger man staying with an older woman is at the same risk factor. If they stay together one day or one year or ten years together. That is good news to those lucky couples. The heart matters. | |

Good for us women!!! Guys have been dating younger women forever & now it is our turn as well. It works both ways
If I didn't know any better, I could interpret the above as a suggestion that some women date younger guys out of spite.
I find it unimpressive and small minded for any person needing to specify an age preference and then justify their reasoning by criticising the older group as an excuse for renting out their bodies.... if it is about establishing something long term, that's a different issue. But to bed hop with younger guys and blame older guys for your behaviour is very irresponsible and immature. | |

Posted: 5/5/2006 9:39:54 PM | Give me a break. Young guys date older women because they know they will put out easier than a young woman. This has been going on for years. A younger guy could not care less about your interests or your mature wisdom.

Posted: 5/5/2006 10:56:33 PM | | How sad that you rdtoo are so shallow and think that all young men are like you. So even demi moore and her guy are in this catigory too? The real you has come out, so to speak. | |

lipstick1961 - there may be more to that than some people think. I don’t know about other guys or anyone else but ... I have had my fill of rejection. Not only on single’s sites but I have been a recruiter (head hunter) for 32 years. It is constant rejection. No matter what you try to tell yourself it is full to the brim with rejection. It is the same for any sales related position. When you make a sales call you are in their back yard - you are a sitting duck for rejection/objection/competition - we get tired of rejection and the competition of it all.
I am 100% use to a mid 40s female - I know nothing else what so ever. My ex is 46 now - she is the oldest female I have any experience with. Three years ago I signed up on a singles site and tried to talk to mid 40s gals ......... ugg. DUH I finally figured it out - many of them considered me too old. Many don’t - but no way of knowing who does and who don’t. I have no urge to insult anyone - so I all but stopped trying. I don’t want to feel guilty - I don’t want to be considered some dirty old man so - I stopped.
So - sure the younger guys don’t seem as gun shy as older guys - by the time the average guy hits 45 - he has had to face rejection a bazillon times - not only in personal life but many in business life as well. We get our fill of it sooner or later. The younger guys will to as time goes by. I personally have FORTY YEARS of experience at rejection - that is just about enough. | |

Posted: 5/6/2006 8:25:12 AM | | I for one do not want a younger man only for sex nor only for a fun fling. I have dated a guy 14 years younger then me for 3 years off and on. He passed away in 1992. So, do not place me in your category of wanting a younger man for only sex and a fun fling. I prefer a man 8 years younger or 8 years older. But, thats just me. Age is just a number, its the heart that matters, and being compatible in many levels, otherwise you will bump heads sooner or later. | |

Posted: 5/6/2006 9:27:46 AM | So, it doesn’t have to do with the age, don’t you think…. But how well the two couple gets alone. Older women are looking for someone who can keep up with them in all aspect of life (mentally, emotionally and physically). Older men are searching for that one person who totally depend upon them…
Older women are demanding (this is a good thing) and older men are controlling. They both find what they are looking for in younger relationship.
Older women have had yrs developing their life style. Where younger women are still looking for that father image (if they had a good relationship with theirs). Some younger women are still trying themselves.
Which mean the younger man is looking for a less pressure relationship and the younger woman is looking for a more committed relationship.
Since women mature faster then men, they start training their men all over again. | |
