I TOTALLY AGREE! There are MANY reasons people date who they want to..and age doesn't play much of a factor.

I usually will not date a woman that is under 25..even then we have to have some serious discussion about certain things. mainly if they are looking for long term, they are usually going to want children and thats a cool and wonderful thing. I love kids, but I simply have to be honest that I do not want that 24/7 responsibility again and to be tied down to one place (for the child's sake for stability) for the next 20 years. I just turned 42..I can still climb mountains..I have raised my son and been there for my god-children..now I'm going to travel the world and spread my wings and FLY AGAIN! And I hope to find a special woman to share that with. I'll wait for grandchildren or can always just play with the kids, spoil them and then send them home to the parents...the FUN STUFF NOW! So thats usually the biggest drawback with the young women..I stay away for thier sake. I'm not a "player" and I put the cards on the table up front. Then if those things are ok with them..PLAYTIME!

The worst is the "air heads" (they can be ANY age) for me..I have been out with some very beautiful women, but some had an IQ of a BOX OF ROCKS! That is an IMMEDIATE turnoff for me.

So we are ALL DIFFERENT! LIVE YOU LIFE YOUR WAY! If you are not hurting anyone and you are honest where you stand..IT'S ALL GOOD!

Good for you!!
Too many men out there of ANY age are players and unfortuanatly some of us don't find out until later

I don't see anything wrong with dating someone younger...

i prefer older man, because man of my age is not as mature as i am!

It's like you have a child as boyfriend!

Thats why i prefer to meet older man, 27, 28 years old

It 's more interesting

sounds good to me.

I'm a 43 year old woman and it seems that I get picked up on more by younger men than I do men my own age. I recently broke up with a boyfriend of 3 years who was nine years younger than I am. He was abusive but I don't believe that had anything to do with his age. Recently, I've dated a man who is 31 and another who is 28. I believe that, to some degree, age does matter but maybe that's my own opinion since I look at the future as well as today...would he still want me in another 10 years when I'm in my fifties and he's barely reached 40?? That's my own fear though.
For now, I'm just enjoying dating and I try not to allow thoughts of what the future would be like to ruin what's going on today.
If a younger man finds you attractive and wants to spend time with you, it's a wonderful compliment and hopefully you'll just enjoy your time with him.

I agree and wish you the best!

But look how women view men in that SAME type of situation!!! Many women view an older man seeing a much yonnger woman as "taboo" and such. We are then termed as "perverts", "dirty old men", etc.

Amazing how views change from different points!
