Guys, would you have a serious relationship with women who is much older than you? What is your age preference?

[Anonymous]

I keep seeing people who put their nose in someone's business when it comes to dating older women even it is just a 2-5 years old age gap but the same people have no problem when a 18 years old teenager date a creepy grandpa. Whatever what is your age preference?

I personally dont care whom someone date as long as they are over 22-24 when they their brain development is finished.

I only would date 0-2 younger/older person

I only would date 3-5 younger/older person

I only would date 5-7 younger/older person

I only would date 8-9 younger/older person

I only would date 10-12 younger/older person

I only would date 13+ younger/older person

I have no age preferences

It does not have to be a huge age gap. I am also curious whether men would date 1-3 years older women or even several months older women.

i usually look for girls the same age as me or not more than a year or two older at max. but if i had to go higher, i'd be fine with someone who's a year of two years older too.

that being said, i'm currently not looking for a relationship personally, but from personal experience, i can safely say that my interactions with girls who are slightly older than i am have overall gone much better than ones who were younger than me or the same age as i am. even as way back as when i was in high school, i was always much closer to the senior girls who were 17-18 as opposed to the girls of my own age who were 16-17 and treated me as an outcast. maybe it's because i matured at a really early age? I don't know. but said girls always have told me that i'm smarter for boys my age

Yes of course, I would love to have a relationship with a woman who's much older than me.
I do find some women who are in their early-mid 30s attractive and if they weren't married, I'd definitely give it my best shot.
Usually but not always, they are more mature, well established personality and financially wise, hard working, caring and independent.
I personally avoid dating girls younger than myself because they are extremely emotionally immature and overly dramatic which I really dislike.

WHen I was 23, I dated a woman who was 46. when I was 53, I dated a girl who was 36. But most of my relationships have been with women who were not more than a 10 year difference.

[Avicenna]

1-3 years older is nothing, but for me the real issues are her health and how long she's planning on working. I'm planning on working until my 80s, so being in a relationship with a woman who's not working anymore or won't be much longer isn't going to work for me.

Sure. When I was younger I was interested in that.. But when you take into account female hypergamy, most if not all older women will not date younger men. Why? Because women want to be taken care of. It's why successful wen find it almost impossible to date, because their dating pool is tiny, and won't date down, they only date up.. There are exceptions to the rule, but they are rare.

[Asker]

Does not make sense. Biologically young men are in their prime. I am 22 and have dated a 20 years old guy

[Opinion Owner]

It does indeed make sense. Say a woman is in her thirties. A guy who is 20 is interested. The young guy is less able to take care of her than someone her age or older. While it might not make sense to you, it is indeed statistically true.

[Asker]

No. An older women would feel appreciated when a younger man want older women

[Opinion Owner]

You say that but statistically you're simply wrong.

[Asker]

I dont know. I would be suprised when a young man would want my old ass when iwas in my 30s+

[Opinion Owner]

You might be the exception to the rule.

I would date 13+ younger (current girlfriend 16 years younger) and no older than 10 years younger. Im 35 and 25 is about the cutoff for me to even think about taking a girl seriously. If she's even close to my age its fun only or casual relationship.

[Guy13]

That's such a meet and determine kind of question. I've met women who you could feel the vibe and in the air... you're 33-wow you look 25-27 last topic kind of thing.

[Asker]

I am 22 and look 14. When i date guys who are my age, people look at us in a weird way and some even called the police. Men who are my age also kinda look much older than they are in my surroundings

[Asker]

Even guys much younger than me look much older than me. Idont care about age gap

[Guy13]

Honestly, I would not have issue with that as long as your ID was on your person ;-) The truth is men age better than women.-look at the 45-50 and the young girls that are with them. 22-23 would be my ideal age BUT it is not an easy fine that is ready to give the up 24-28 "fun times"..

[Asker]

Only male celebrities look good at that age. I dont know any guy who looks good at 26+ which is ok and i dont care about looks At least in my experience men loose hair, get a belly, have a typical dad face when they become 27+. Maybe the guys age much more than women in my surroundings since women stay at home aka have not so much sun exposure while men work under hot sun (?). I also stay out of sun due to a stupid habit lol

[Guy13]

I am guessing that you have not been in a City with at least 500,000 in it. Even in Bangkok (15 million) there are plenty of Asians, Europeans, Canadians, and American which are super hot 25-55.

[Anno2]

I find it really weird women half my age flirt with me. At that age it wouldn't even cross my mind to flirt with a woman my age.

I find 10 years either way ok for my age, anything more would feel weird.

[abc3643]

My wife is 5.5 years older than me.
I have had a girlfriend who was 9y 1m older than me.
I wanted to date a woman who was 15y 6m older than me, but she friendzoned me.

[abc3643]

What is there to disagree about?
I stated facts about my life; that's it.

Some people - most people here - aren't exactly smart.

If anything, idiots like that inspire extraterrestrials to invade because the ETs will perceive that we are too stupid to put up much of a defense.

[Robert159]

Sure would no reason not to age is only a number once it passes 18

[zagor]

So an older guy is a "creepy grandpa" while an older woman is... what? Sounds like YOU are the one making judgments here.

[Asker]

Older women and grandma ain't same. A woman can be few months, few years older or max 5-9 years older than her partner and she will be judged but a grandpa with a teenie girlfriend dont get judged

[zagor]

I have a relative whose husband is 10 years younger. And a former co-worker whose husband is probably 20 or so years younger - and he's a good-looking guy with a good job, so it wasn't desperation.

[Wise4myage]

Only for a hookup.
