Can anyone help me understand why the majority of guys over the age of 45 seem to only want to consider dating women at least 10-20 years younger than they are? I'm 49 (and told I look younger) and just getting back into dating after a long relationship but I don't want to date guys 10-20 years older than I am.

I used to work in the nursing field, and the average age there at the time was 42. I worked with hundreds of female nurses, as I floated to different hospitals and departments daily; out of all those women I saw, I can literally remember 2 women that were in their 40's that looked in great shape. And by no means were they thin, they had some extra weight, but they looked nice. The rest of the women were obese, and had such a negative attitude, that once, a 40 something year old good looking nurse was hired, and in 2 weeks she had to quit because these fat nurses were so jealous, they sabotaged her on each shift. I didn't believe it till I saw it. So I think most guys tend to agree that the older women get, the worst they look; however, in my travels in europe, the older women were incredible because somehow they manage to stay in great shape, and they don't dress like moms! :)

lovebird01 I agree with the comment about European women. My girlfriend is from Finland, and just turned 45. She looks 35. - 4 months ago
Question Asker I see your point - men don't want to date their moms - but evidently many men haven't looked into a mirror lately. Good advice though-for men and women-to be healthy and fit, attractive,relevant and interesting no matter what age we are. - 4 months ago

It's simple. they don't like the bodies of women their ages. Men seem to not care to have real conversations with women their own ages. They don't want to be reminded of their age. they want to feel younger. I'm 35, attractive, 5'6 size 6 , I look max 27 yrs old. but 35 yr old men don't date 35 yr old women. It starts in the 30's and continues to the 60's. You have to think the other way, date younger not older. 39 in 'Men age' is the same as 49. Just don't talk about age. Don't limit yourself.

Describe your ideal first date; Where do you go? What do you wear? How does the date end?
Like to hit a fun scene - try a hip bar, jazz club. Someplace that's hot.

I wear my regular weekend gear - nice shirt, good jeans, and my sweet hat.

End? Well I aim for the best. The date ends when there's no more fun to be had. Might be the club, might be my place.

Afterwards..what will your date know about you?
That I'm a wild dude. You only live once and I want to get the most out of it. The girls who I dig are looking to get all they can out of dating.

Would you date me?
