Much older? No thanks, I don't have daddy issues. Older guys are usually bitter and skeptical if they were previously married. If single, thy're just weird. They stuck in their ways, unwilling to compromise, and look for someone to take care of them.
I'd prefer someone closer to my age. A 5 years difference is max.
I have nothing in common with old people who didn't changed. Another era. Another mindset. I suppose those who survived much longer are the ones presevered.
I'd never date a guy more than a few years older. such a turn off!
Why?
I see nothing at all wrong with it. Bitter old feminazi bitches rail out against it because they look like shit and heave developed nasty attitudes. The US is so hypocritical of this. Most of the world doesn't care.
The pros are many
The cons is the different stages in life you both are and how they collide
Neither of those pictures look like that much of an age difference - certainly not different generations.
lol that's what I thought too! Those dudes definitely aren't "twice the age" of those girls. xD
You guys really think so?
@Jessicocoa Yeah, those definitely aren't college girls. And a lot of guys have that much white in their hair by 40.
@Jessicocoa yeah wtf... those are similar-age couples, with the man mb five years older... in which the woman just uses hair color XD
Well there are young woman who are need of a cash strapped suga daddy
The only pros women care about are his money. Which is pretty much all women care about anyway.
Maybe that is true of the women you attract, but certainly not in general.
Excellent Take, it gives hope, at least for us single older men ;)
You could say just say "I'm a gold digger with daddy issues" and spare the article.
I don't see a point in taking age as such a factor. Many women don't like younger women, because older ones are "wise" it's such a gross generalization that it's like saying all women are stupid.
Cons: He's very rarely as sexually attractive as men closer to your age or younger.
Oh man, a man is in his sexually attractive peak between the ages of 35-50. I definitely turn to watch more salt and pepper men go by more than I do my own age. In fact, it's safe to say that I almost never am sexually attracted to a man my age.
@Rocket_Queen same here
I disagree, for my own experience. I've had amazing lovers 24-30 range and the older ones have seemed to start losing their tight bods, hair and their steam. Which is all good if he isn't still strutting around like a peacock.
I would love to date an older guy but usually not more than 10 years older than me.
What about the fact that he will probably die about 20 years before u die leaving u alone
I doubt the only cons are the outside judgement...
But you haven't followed through with list of any other cons :)
@Sekrett Because I've never dated an older guy. There are many pros and cons to everything - doubtful there's only one for dating an older man...
I know I wouldn't date a much younger woman.
Gotta LOVE that youthful energy! lol!
I love this!
Pro : He has money
