I'm open to meeting, and am attracted to, people in various age groups. But most of the women I connect with are in the 20-24 age range, give or take. I'm young at heart, so naturally the chemistry is strongest with women in the same category. Culturally, I have more in common with Generation Y than Generation X. Most of my interests, while being open to everyone, tend to attract a younger crowd. At the end of the day, it doesn't matter - chemistry happens when it happens, with whom it happens.
Initially trying to be friendly isn't usually a problem. Fortunately, I look like I'm in my mid-20's. Now in reality, I'm in my early 30's.
Is it OK to approach women who are between, say, 20 and 24, even without knowing in advance that they're OK with the age difference?
If I approach someone in this age range, she's going to find out my actual age sooner or later. Actually, she's going to find out when she asks, because I don't want to lie. If she's just not interested when she finds out my actual age, is it going to hurt her feelings? Or is she just going to quietly lose interest?
How flexible/inflexible are people's age ranges, anyway?
I'm 23 and I wouldn't mind dating someone in their early thirties. I've actually liked guys in that age range before. Sometimes I think the conversation is better because they are at a different stage then my 23 year old counterparts. LOL. I don't see anything wrong with it. Like you said, chemistry is chemistry. Now there are some girls that would never date anyone older than them but it's just different preferences for different people. Oh, also, I'm in no way writing off my 23-24 year old counterparts. I still have some pretty interesting convos. With y'all. LOL.
Having seen my best friend have amazing chemistry with an older guy, I am very flexible in the age range I'm open to. Upwards, anyway. I couldn't date a guy much younger than me anyway because we'd run into legality and consent issues, haha. I'd be open about your age upfront. Obviously, walking up to a girl in her early 20s in a bar and immediately declaring that you're 33 or whatever is probably not the ideal technique, but you've definitely got the right idea when you say you don't want to lie to her.
If I liked you and we had chemistry, and we had similar goals for what we wanted out of our interactions (ie, I'm looking for relationships, not just sex), I'd be comfortable with probably up to around 35 or so. Any older than that and we're getting to where a guy may well have been having sex before I was born (I'm 19), and that starts to get creepy. Not anyone's fault, obviously, but just the idea of it is strange for me. Now, whether my parents would be comfortable with that is another story, haha, but it's my life, not theirs.
And, random other fact, I have NO celebrity crushes younger than 30, and I never have. Even when I was still in middle/high school. True story. And the fact that I'd get with any of them in a heartbeat makes me feel like it would probably be hypocritical to immediately reject an average, random guy in his thirties just for reasons of age.
I am a twenty year old with a taste for older women (23-35), most girls my age (and younger) I find too immature to be in a serious relationship with....

What pickup lines do you use to start a conversation with someone you are attracted to?
I think I use situations to start conversations...
If I'm approaching a female, I'd start by introducing myself, and following up with a compliment of why I had to introduce my self.
How do they typically respond?
If she is interested, she would ask questions, or make small talk while giving off some type of body language.
If she is not interested, she listens to whatever I say, and tells me something like she really into someone right now, but she appreciates the approach.
