What are your views on the benefits of a relationship with an older man?

some of us are givers and some are takers.....MOST ARE SYMBIOTIC RELATIONSHIPS...

Being old but breathing is a complete benefit!!!!

Lmao!!!

What age range are we talking here???


Are you talking May/December
Are you talking jailbait will get you 20...

Big difference.

I guess from a young girls point of view security...

From the man's point of view ego trip and build in nurse when he gets to that point.

Neither is reality

GOOD POINT....WHAT WOULD YOU SAY AFTER YOU SAY HELLO.....THEY CALL THAT

SIMBIOSIS....

Lol. There was a 17 yr age difference with my last GF of 5 years and we got along great and age was not a problem. But as a man advances in age is it fair to his younger lady?

Nope, not fair at all. You should let the younger guys have a chance

ITS NOT FAIR TO YOU OR HER....I AM DATING A WOMAN MY AGE, EVERY TIME I AM WITH

HER THE BEAUTIFUL LITTLE GIRL SHE WAS BORN WITH COMES OUT. I REALLY ENJOY BEING

WITH HER, WE HAVE SO MUCH IN COMMON WE BOTH CAN RELATE TOO....I WAS A FATHER

ONCE AND AM A GRANDPARENT AND GREAT GRANDPARENT I AM PAST THAT..AND SO IS MY

SWEET HEART....

EVEN A WOMAN OUR AGE WAS BORN WITH A BEAUTIFUL LITTLE GIRL INSIDE AND SHE IS

STILL THERE WAITING FOR THE RIGHT MAN.....

Personally I like women 5 to 7 years younger than me... but I would not say no to dating somebody in their late twenties and upwards.... just for research purposes only of course..lol

Congratulations to you and your lady, sparkyae5

My ex wife was 14 years younger than me - Lasted 10 years

My ex girlfriend was 5 years younger than me. Lasted 2 years.

My last ladyfriend was 18 months older than me. We were very happy and together 12 years until she sadly passed away 18 months ago.

It's just the luck of the draw I guess

Both of you are very lucky to find each other. Love the way, you described your relationship. Really wonderful.

You see the beauty and youth in her.

( I hope someday...someone...somewhere ...will said that about me. Even if I look cranky, wrinkly and maybe look like female -version of Albert Einstein at that time)

Lol, i love the one with Albert E. Sticking his tounge out! But you are pretty, and Albert was, well, you know!

This is the sweetest thing I've read in a long time. What a beautiful thing to say about the woman you love! Congrats Sparkyae! Very happy for the both of you

traditionally

older man is at a better place in his career

if he has worked his way up in a company
and done well in past 20 years

he is better off financially

so that he can offer material things


a young woman offers her youth, her good health, her beauty
in exchange



I really don't have an issue with it

except that it is not as glorious as it sounds sometimes..

or should I say it gets old after awhile

lack of good conversation, health issues, etc



...many of you know I am getting my degree in Counseling
so lemme tell ya a scenario I walked into

a power couple were looking for a housekeeper
someone to come in once a week so I figured what the hell
easy way to make a bit of extra cash


huge beautiful home, well landscaped..all the bells and whistles

separate bedrooms..he was 75 and she was 50

he had major health issues and she was hardly ever home
had a huge walk in closet full of clothes
sunken whirlpool tub in her bathroom
millions of shoes

Men are happy with younger girls

Yes true

As there were only quotes at the end of the topic lets start from the beginning ..
There are benefits for both parties as I see it.

For younger women it means security and reliability in a relationship. Older men are experienced, they have learned their lessons, financially independent, usually have a place to live and a good job, they have status. Plus they usually value this new relationship very highly and are fully ready to commit to a partner and her needs.
Younger women have also found some younger men still to be kids, who don't have any vision or a goal for the future life.

For older men this relationship can be a true lifesaver, if might say so. It kicks you out of your comfort zone. You probably will start to exercise again to be healthy and to look good and to BE really good, coz this relationship will require a lot from you. It will take everything. You will not be able to compete with young men, when it comes to look and physical capacity, but you can beat them with your experience and knowledge .. and the willingness to contribute to your relationship.

You are free not to agree with me, but being older doesn't necessarily mean that you have to forget about the bright side of life.
Younger women have told me that being older is actually a bonus, but it's up to you how you can use it.
