why do men get older and think they can keep up with a younger woman? they are getting older just like the women they left. now the older women have to try and find men that are not interested in really young women and more a woman their age. I think women have it a little harder than men on these online dating sites. As soon as they see your age, they go on to the next one. Yeah it sucks to get older but it's not like we can stop it.

I think that there are plenty of people online and some will want younger men or women and some will want them around the same age.. I think that men have the same problem.. If it's not age then it's weight, looks, income, career type etc. There is always going to be something, not everyone is going to find everyone else perfect for them in every way... When we meet that person that is perfect for "us" none of the other stuff will matter...

Why is it when I was younger I was CONSTANTLY told I looked too young?

With a lot of men it is about trading up for a newer model so to speak.

Me? I do not look my age, feel my age, and sure in the hell do not relate well with my generation. Besides, why do I want to come up behind someone who has been through so many failed relationships? I have had to bear the burden of the sins of past relationships before and that is an utter steaming load.

I would just assume find a younger woman who has not been through so much BS and left with a permanent impression of men that will haunt me for no good reason? At least with a younger woman I see a chance to allow both of us to grow, not one to make the other stagnate.

I have had older GFs and Younger GFs and the BS though is still ALWAYS the same.

I am so sick of the hypocrisy women judge men by anyways. A lot of time I know where I stand with a woman if she has to look at what shoes I am wearing when I first meet her. I fall immediately into the "Forget it Zone." Think I am kidding? Women size us up by looks and money and it is only when they get older and more desperate to fulfill their life's ambitions and land a husband to avoid loneliness (and to those women who say they are happy being alone... Look in the mirror and say that before saying it here. Deep down humans cannot stand loneliness, period. You resolve only will hold out so long before the bitterness sets in!).

Frankly there is a lot more ego and self gratification going on in this world that is proof positive to me how screwed up people are in general, both men and women. Why complain about older men thinking they can keep up with younger women. IT is all a screwed up game with contradictory rules on a uneven play field with a biased referee.

Why is it from time to time I see some fluffy little cotton tail under the arm of some crusty old gieser? Love? Gold digging maybe?


But still I do see what you are saying and there does come a time where one must admit that age has caught up with us. I think this animation will illustrate what you are saying perfectly! It is from Allegro Non Troppo by Bruno Bozetto. This particular animation is titled Debussy's Prélude à l'après-midi d'un faune. Hope you enjoy it?

seems to be ..as the older men are going for the younger women....the younger men are going for the older women I say we`d got the better deal here

Age is only a number, its the person and their personality that counts.

If you constantly think of yourself as 'old', soon you WILL feel old because you have already convinced yourself of it.

Dont do that!!....it pays off to be a kid at heart no matter what your age is.

So far, almost every woman that I have been with, have all been older than me...but they still have great amounts of energy and stamina (some of them even wear ME out!! ) and they feel good about themselves instead of feeling embarrassed.

Its all in the mind.

Well said. I don't even think about what "age" I am
just live and breathe and have fun.

Cougars

I started dating this gal, I thought she was older and she thought I was younger. (We did not meet online)

34 vs 49 LOLOLOL That didn't last very long.
And she was the one to initiate the ball rolling.

interesting, but why can't we? why can't you?... when I first started dating, age was important to me... but I learned something about myself - and it was this.... i am attracted to some people that at first I didn't think I would be. I dated older than me by 10 years, and younger than me... and all in between. I am dating a wonderful woman now, we get along very very well - she is beautiful, smart, has an amazing personality and we click on many, many levels. She is mature, yet playful - fun and exciting, yet responsible... romantic and sensual, yet grounded. She also happens to be a lot younger than me.

perhaps you should focus less on being a victim of your age, go out meet people and let things happen natrually - you may find that you meet someone and have a great relationship with them - although you may not at first glance thought that they were your "type"...

baby...

Get off my lawn!

getting older is wonderful!!!!!.....


I love being me at this age!!!!.....


some men are attracted to me cause I am older.....

but everyone likes what they like!!!

I love how their "trade-ins" look like the women they just left.

It doesn't look that way from where I am sitting.

If a single man has a child of his living at home,
then it's Strike 1.

If a single man isn't financially well off,
then it's Strike 2.

If a single man places his faith ahead of his desire for worldly pleasures,
then it's Strike 3.

The women on these websites may not have the same lusts that men have, but the women still have lusts, and the women won't take a second look at a man who cannot fulfill those lusts.

In short, men and women are equals.

I think younger women are suxually attractive and this drives men towards them. Sex is what men do to women!!! not otherwise. Older men (over 40) do not like women of their own age. Do you want to have a man next to you who don't like you suxually? I don't think so. So I think you should look for men who love you, that is, who are 10 years older than you. If you are 40 the man should be in their 50s. Otherwise it is not gonna work and you might stay single.

You may not agree with what i am saying but many men will agree with me. they better stay single than marry a woman of their own age when they are 40 and older. When we are young we love women up to 45 years old just to have sex. When we get older and we start think about life seriously we get sexually attracted to younger women.

I firmly beleive that people should marry young before they reach 30. So that questions like would not exist.

WOW!!!


Gotta show my boyfreind this!!!


we are both in our 50's and our sex life?...well a younger woman can never do what I am capable of....he'll be the first to tell ya!!!!


He learned his lesson........love ya babe!!!

Nonsense!

A woman over the age 40 can be sexy. Older women make beautiful lovers.

My late wife was 40 when she became pregnant with my son, and I was 4 years younger than her.

I'm currently over 40, and I would prefer a woman who is at least 40.
Yet, I wouldn't close the door on a woman below 40.

Sexy knows no age limit.

Oh heck, if she has a type, she's in better shape than I am

hey equus. well said.

About 5 or 6 yrs ago I saw my ex husband (of a 17yr marriage)out at lunch with an airman (female) who looked exactly how I did 20 yrs ago. he doesnt know I saw them tho

I was amused.

I also "caught" my ex boyfriend with a chickie on his bike a few yrs ago who looked exactly like me from behind. (also doesnt know I saw him...)

but ya, I agree w/ you - at least it was true with my 2 longest relationships.

i'm attracted to younger/younger looking women, but i know i do not want one...well, for anything longer than a few hours anyway... but to date, i want someone with 5-10 tears of my age...
