I'm 29 years old and I'm much more attracted to men under 40 than over 40. I just wanna see if I am the only one or if its a common thing.
When I was your age, I was the same way. I was never attracted to older men.

3.2K opinions shared on Dating topic. Yes it's very normal of all ages abd both genders when I was way younger I loved older women andi said fuck Society and their rules and their comments and their bullshit this is my life. And I went out with older women
Because that's what made me happy. Older women know what they want. There were no games and I loved the The type of communication that we would have
Then I started dating girls my age and now that I'm older. There are women my age that have lost all forms of Motivation. To do the Physical things that I like to do to stay healthy and fit..
It seems like now days I attract women that are younger they tell me all different types of reasons on why. From Maturity to having it together trust. Respect. Communication.
I've learned with the time I have put on this planet. And why we are here is something way more deeper. I don't care who you are. First find yourself. Love yourself.. and do what makes you happy and if someone comes in to your life that you are Compatible with and you love them and you make a great team. Then act on it, go for it. We still have laws respect them and yourself. .. the time we have on this planet is short. Find that person
This life is deeper than what we have been lead to belive.. we are all here for a reason so find it and as your learning exploring , experiencing growing. . Find someone that your happy with that believes in the same things and if there is understanding in each other. What you will find is something beautiful with each other
They say sex is a sin.. of course everything is a sin... but when you find that right person. You know who you are they know who they are you make love and you can become 1. And if you can do this everytime you touch there becomes a deeper meaning to life. You will start having out of body experiences that start teaching you a deeper meaning to life... you don't know it yet. Or maybe you do
There is a reason we do what we do in life it's to get to where we are going. The question your asking the words say one thing but there is a deep meaning to it all. Follow your heart .
Sorry it sounds as if I went off track with your question like all questions I answer. . but your heart your Subconscious is looking for something
we all are. Hopefully you will experience all the above and then you will understand what I said
All the above sounds crazy. But until you find yourself find that person your looking for and the reasons behind it. Then it is crazy
But find that person become one and that crazy turns In to a beautiful lesson of why you are you and why we are all here00 Reply
10 moI think that’s common I’m not attacking all age gap relationships saying none of them are ever genuine because that’s simply not true. But more often then not there is other factors as to why these relationships are even a thing besides just a genuine interest.
I think it’s true that most people are more attractive between 18-40. Even men start to age some people age more gracefully then others depending on genetics as well as how well you’re taking care of yourself.
But attraction is different for everyone don’t waste a man’s time you’re not attracted to. Unless one day you see a man over 45 that you genuinely feel something for. Focus on who you genuinely are attracted to. Some people are different and that’s okay. Not everyone’s meant to be.

Asker10 moHumans have evolutionized to find youth to be most attractive. Because younger people tend to procreate healthier children
- 10 mo
The thing is I’m not saying none of these relationships aren’t genuine the bad apples spoil the bunch for sure. I’m not going to trash two people who are genuinely happy together.
But for the most part many of these relationships do feel very weird. Many times it seems like the man’s listing after a younger woman as where the woman is with the older man for financial reasons not because she’s genuinely attracted to him. Which often leads to cheating on both sides.
For one. Eventually if you only have a sexual attraction to someone you’re eventually going to get bored with that person especially as they get older and their body changes (especially with children).
As for marrying someone for financial reasons many times the person who did that will seek a deeper connection. If they are a dark personality then they will still have sex for sport and pleasure. - 10 mo
But. Even for women you’re right most women want someone whose at a age where they will have healthier children. Not to say that people can’t grow old together and still love one another.
But more times then not. You’re right. There isn’t genuine attraction. Even if men can have children longer then women. There is still risk factors involved - 10 mo
Now as for some women when they are younger. They will love how a older man is more mature maybe and has his life together. I don’t mean old old. But say 30s or 40s.
But then eventually leave him for a younger man later down the road….
Asker10 mo@summeroflove
most young women ARE NOT ATTRACTED TO men in their 40s.
Most women would agree that 30-36 is a man's prime.
Asker10 mo@summeroflove
youth is attractive because it represents good reproductive health.
sperm doesn't get better as a man gets older. Neither does egg quality- 10 mo
Asker and most people are attracted to people around their age. Men and women alike.
I’m not saying a relationship can’t be genuine in some circumstances though - 10 mo
Correct. However people genuinely in love do grow old together still loving one another. Despite being older
Asker10 mo@summeroflove
you believe most women are attracted to men in their 40s. because men like you have to lead to believe in lies.
just like how fat women are leading the "body positivity" movement or "big is beautiful". then go on social media to call themselves "curvy" and brag about how so many men want to be with them.
then men go around insisting that "dad bods are sexy"
95% of people in society do not appreciate the sight of a fat person. Lets be real.- 10 mo
Okay it depends on the man there are men (and women) still in shape at 40. Just because a relationship isn’t for you doesn’t mean everyone’s the same.
I’m not disagreeing with you. I’m just stating the facts - 10 mo
If people marry one another at 20 because they love one another. They will still love one another at 40. Love can be lost hur you get the point if they’re genuinely in love
- 10 mo
But that happens age and bearing children changes tiur body. Your looks WILL change
- 10 mo
Now YES it’s normal you’re not attracted to men over 40. I’m saying everyone’s different.
Though. Men over 40 who have let’s say are doing good financially maybe they got divorced. Yes it’s common that these men think a younger woman genuinely loves him when she doesn’t.
This happens….
Asker10 mo@summeroflove
why would a young woman , in her prime, pick to be with someone she isn't attracted to?
being in shape doesn't mean you can't be ugly or wrinkly.
sorry
Asker10 mo@summeroflove
you also do not need to be in your 40s to be financially stable. There are already plenty of financially stable men in their 30s.- 10 mo
People pick people they aren’t attracted to because they are using them for other reasons. You would be surprised how common this is.
Such as for financial reasons… So women who are genuine won’t waste a man’s time she’s not attracted to - 10 mo
I’m not saying there isn’t and there is financially unstable men who are in their 40s as well.
I’m just saying. Commonly these relationships have other motives therefore not based in genuine attraction and rarely stand the test of time.
- 10 mo
At the same time. Every woman is different. Some woman may find a man whose older that she has a lot in common with and genuinely fall in love.
18 and 40 is super weird. But if she’s say 23-25. It’s not my business. Even if it’s not my cup of tea regarding relationships… Doesn’t mean it can’t be right for someone else out there - 10 mo
But a good reason as to why many marriages don’t last. Is they are married on superficial and materialistic reasons.
Now maybe there are reaosns someone becomes initially attracted but build a deeper bond as time goes on that’s normal. However, once people age and their looks change.
There are instances of men divorcing their wives. Marrying a younger woman…. And those second marriages rarely last either. Because neither one of them are in it for the right reasons.
Asker10 mo[At the same time. Every woman is different. Some woman may find a man whose older that she has a lot in common with and genuinely fall in love.]
you're much more likely to have things in common with someone around your age than someone around your fathers age.
this is why most people tend to marry those around the same age.
[There are instances of men divorcing their wives. Marrying a younger woman…. And those second marriages rarely last either. Because neither one of them are in it for the right reasons.]
regardless, marriage data still shows average age gap is only 2.2 years.- 10 mo
I agree but I’m just not going to shit on someone’s relationship if they’re genuinely happy either
- 10 mo
On average. But every relationship is different so remember that. Look, I’m not saying you have to marry a man older or younger then you are.
There are women I would never marry but am happy for them when they find the right man. - 10 mo
I mean. Yes if I feel someone’s on a toxic relationship… I would be concerned and try to warn someone about it.
But I can’t save people from themselves some people have to learn that lesson the hard way.

00 Reply881 opinions shared on Dating topic. i'm 24 and i'm not attracted to men over 40 either most of the time. only attracted to the real dilfy ones. i dont think that's weird, people are a lot less attractive in their forties and it's natural to prefer people closer in age anyways.
00 ReplyI mean at 29 I'd say a preference for under 40 is still completely reasonable. I wouldn't want to date a guy more than ten years older than me for sure.
00 Reply13.2K opinions shared on Dating topic. Common enough. Although I expect there are some over-40 men you would find attractive. You can't always tell someone's age from their appearance.
