My understanding has been that younger women are generally attracted to younger men and vice versa. Although I'm currently infatuated with a girl 3 years older them me, even though she looks younger, oddly enough. Guess some cons would range from quarter life crisis, to mid life crisis stuff, less operational and maybe less active). Can't think of much to compare as pros ... I guess younger people are less likely to break a hip? Older people are going to be more accomplished and theoretically more secure with themselves and achieved more with their lives. I think it's worth thinking about the type of stuff you'd like to do with your partner relative to finances. I'm probably the wrong person to ask, but those are my thoughts. wow 3 years? my ex was 15 years younger than me... never do that agian

The youngest I've dated was 8 years younger. The oldest was a couple years older.

as long as two people are adults, AGE becomes just a number BUT maturity has to be judged on a case by case basis when there are children involved, it might add another dimension, but you havent mentioned having any,,,

If I was to date an older woman she would have to be in her grave.

Personally, I don't like younger men. Most of them irritate me, so I tend to see them as mosquitoes. But I do know that the older woman-younger man pairing can work sometimes. I've seen it happen. I guess it all depends on the couple, as in all relationships. But the common denominator that I have observed is that the women in those relationships have to be more patient, though they are the dominant figure, even subtly.

younger men would be interested in older women with lots of money so would older men especially if you were in good shape.I'ts just a fact that less are interested in old, broke and out of shape.a fool an his/her money are soon parted and a fool and his/her money are lucky to get together in the first place. I dont make the rules I just enforce them

lots of grey area there if you were 15 dating someone 8 years younger or 38 dating someone 8 years younger it makes a big difference sometimes what doesnt seem like too many years is way way too many years difference in some cases

I think you need to go with your gut on this one .... There are some very mature and awesome younger guys out there- and some older guys that are fun, cute and cuddly! Hopefully they'll come your way!

My understanding has been that younger women are generally attracted to younger men and vice versa. Meant to say "younger women attracted to [older] men" ... tiredness <_<

But, it can go either way, I guess. I'm very rarely attracted to anyone older than me, but it happens sometimes. Though, I have had my share of much older men try to convince me that age is just a number... .

The start to bald, get the gut going.. I dunno. Young guys still got it going on.. Ok.. I am 100% certain that some older dude is gonna come in here and make a comment about how I am wrong about my statement, and that he is hotter than any younger guy out there.. Yesss.. please older guy, prove me wrong! hahaha

The real young ones are to immature. I'm 62, so a younger guy, for me would be 35 plus. As for maturity, I'm betting 55 would be a good age.
