At 18, my friend, you have plenty of time to find out for yourself. But, when I was about 2 years older than you are now a 36 yo taught the "kid" a lesson or two...

By thew way MP, Thank you sir..

you are soooo wrong, maybe most are about sex, but there are a lot of us "older" women that want all that a good relationship has to offer along with the sex.

I meant from the younger guy's point of view. I know older women want relationships, but from what I've seen, the younger guys aren't interested. They've heard that older women are "experienced" and "in their prime" and "can teach them a thing or two" so that's what it's about. Usually. If both parties are in it strictly for the sex, more power to them, but it's sad when one person wants more than the other is willing- or is capable- to give. If you've seen or experienced something better than this, and actually had a real relationship with a younger guy, congrats to you.

thats the thing that i'm worried about, i may not be capable to give her everything that she wants right now, b/c i'm still in college and everything, and college wrestling takes a lot of time to, but then again, i dont know what all she wants. I'm would not be in it just for the sex, she iw as wonderful person, and i would love to have a relationship with her, and her 2 kids!

Well, that's awesome then. If I were you, I'd talk to her about what she wants. When people are honest and upfront about things, it makes it so much easier.

To everyone, thank you so much for all of your advice, but,unfortunately, the 26 year old, divorced woman, with 2 kids, just told me that she thinks I'm to young for her, and that we could be friends, and not to take it personal, but yet and still she deletes me off of her myspace... oh well... time to find another "woman"! But thank you all so much!

When I was 40, I fell in love with an 18 1/2 yr old college student. He was my daughters boyfriends college roommate. He fell in love with me too. He would call and say "can you come out and play"? He did not want children so I felt fine with that. We had so much fun and shared so many deep feelings and experiences. I left my husband (who was ignoring me, and actually told me I was fat and ugly and didn't turn him on(I weighed 100 lbs)!!) and we got a place together. It lasted a year. It seemed like to me he was too serious and took every word I said as gospel! I gave him a reference, because he paid half the rent and bills and he got his own apartment. I also helped him get a job with the Post Office, where I believe he stills works. No hard feelings. It was a great experience and I was loved and cared for and secure while we were together. No regrets. By the way sometimes just cuddling (spooning) in bed is just as good, sometimes better than sex!! Sex is a good thing though! Good luck!!

Hey, I love older women ....but then, I'M OLD!!!!

i dont see any bad thing
older women know how to love more

Awww, I'm sorry since you really liked her. But I'm sure it's for the best, it's good she figured it out early before anyone really got hurt. Good luck, I'm sure you will find what you want. :)

I really hope so, you would think i wouldnt have any problems, i mean, i dont think i'm ugly, i'm a MP in the ARMY, and i'm a freshman captain on a college wrestling team....but... idk.. its kina hard to explain, but again, thank you all!

Nope you aren't ugly. Just take your time, there shouldn't be a rush. :)

Older women or men have been where you're trying to still get to.

grrrrrrrrrrr

Woooo, back it up sista...Older woman that doesn't necessarily want a relationship. I take things for what they are, I have met younger guys that I have or would date, and I have met older guys that I have or would date, it depends on the person, The younger guys offer different things than the older ones, it doesn't make one any better or any worse. I don't sit around and think...God I want a relationship... I take each person for what they are to me, and don't try to force things...maybe that is why older women are better, we have so much other stuff to worry about... that need to marry or whatever goes on the backburner, I enjoy the company...It is what it is.

I never said either was better than the other. I said from what I'VE seen and from what I'VE experienced. I can only speak for myself. I also said that IF she had found a younger guy who was willing and able to have a relationship with an older woman, then congrats to her. It really helps if you take the time to read the post completely before you jump down someone's throat because they made a comment that you don't agree with. I have no idea how my post offended you, but if it did, then whatever....

And other thing, if you have to refer to me personally, you can call me katy or katydid34, I'm no relation to you, so calling me "sista" is offensive. Thanks. :P

Well, MP, the girl did you a favor & I'm not surprised....I told you before you didn't 'seal the deal', but you weren't ready to just yet....they'll be more opportunities & you really didn't want to be raising someone else's kids at your age....stick to having fun....plenty of time to settle down...good luck

It's called an expression, yes I know you are of no relation to me....

And where did I jump down anyone's throat?? I expressed my opinion. No throat jumping... My opinion= nothing to anyone but me.

Here is what you said...correct me if I am wrong but the I've seen was for the guy point of view. Your statement was..." I know older women want relationships."

Thanks!, i guess you learn from your mistakes, but, its around Christmas time and everything so i guess i just want someone to be with through the holidays, and maybe thats why i'm in a rush, but oh well
