You just have to realize that not everyone is going to agree with you at all times. Apparently some of you are not catching on, I don't care either way. Lets see if I can make this a little more clear. I haven't said not one word against anyone's opinion on this subject. Not once. But so far at least one has been bawking at me about my opinion. So far I have not made one post agreeing or disagreeing with anyone's post or thoughts on this subject. But for whatever reason some are still stuck on my thoughts. It seems to me I'm not the one with the problem. It's the one or ones that keep talking about my opinion. Which makes me feel like some folks can't stand the truth. What I said is the truth. Some folks DO turn up their nose to others based on nothing but age. As far as the way I look at it,You can't do that. By doing that you limit your possibilities. Now, I'm going to stir the pot a little more. I've also noticed how some women get defensive over this subject. They see a older man with a younger woman and it pi$$es them off. I've heard with my own ears, Women bad mouth men that are in their 40 or older with a woman 10 to 20 yrs younger than them. ("What's the matter with him" I've heard them say. "Can't he get one his age?") He's 50 and she is 30. What's the problem? They are both grown. I'm not saying this is the way it is. I'm just saying this is the way it looks. It looks like jealousy. It looks like some don't like it because they think he should be with a woman his age. They don't like it because he was able to attract this younger woman. It makes them feel threatened. They can't compete with someone younger. So, They bad mouth. I'm reasonably sure someone isn't going to like what I said here. I'm not talking out the side of my neck. I've seen this myself. Back in the day when I was 45 and dating the 25 yr old,Women my age bad mouthed her and I. When all the time she was better than them. It was all about age and nothing else. It didn't matter that she was mature beyond her yrs. It didn't matter that we had a lot in common. It was her age that mattered. At least to them. When you say something like: "What I said is the truth. Some folks DO turn up their nose to others based on nothing but age. As far as the way I look at it,You can't do that. By doing that you limit your possibilities." It does seem like you have a problem with those who do that. You're free to date whoever you like, but of course people can decide not to date someone based on age. Yes, that's your opinion, but you make it sound like you're trying to tell people what they cannot do, which shouldn't be the case. Have you seen me quote any ones post and then try to convince them they are wrong? No' I haven't. What I have said was, As far as the way I look at it
It makes it look like certain ones are stuck on how I look at it. If you were not you wouldn't keep quoting me. It's my opinion about the subject. No more,no less. Based on what I've personally seen and lived. And to the other, I do understand the "Cougar" thing. It does work both ways. |

If you were just talking about yourself, you would have said "I can't do that," rather than "you can't do that." Perhaps its just the way you word things. |

I'm not going to get into a word play thing here. I'm going to say this,and be done with it. When I am on a forum I've learned not to take everything everyone says literally. I've learned that most people have their own way of speaking depending on what part of the world they live in. Just like here in the great old USA. Southerners speak one way while Northerners speak another. I'm sure you understand what I'm getting at. So, If someone says something like, "What I said is the truth. Some folks DO turn up their nose to others based on nothing but age. As far as the way I look at it,You can't do that. By doing that you limit your possibilities."
It doesn't literally mean "you". I like to think that we all are speaking in "general" terms based on our own lives and what we have seen in that life. To me, Keeping it in mind that most everyone is speaking in general terms based on there lives, Well, You realize that everyone is right based on what they have seen and lived. Then you realize you have nothing to argue about. I'm done. Back on topic. |

When I give my opinion, I speak for myself, rather than generally for everyone else. |

I have always gone for men older than me. It's just what I'm attracted too. Some people like older, some people want someone their age, and some people like younger. Just depends on what you like, and your preferences. There's a reason why Larry King still wears suspenders. |
