I’m 40 and suddenly attracted to men in their 60s—is this common?

I'm 40 and single.

Lately I've been liking men in their 60s.

I find them to be more respectful, old fashioned and they seem like they would be good in bed.

Women in their 40s, have you gone out with a man in their 60s?

It's POSSIBLY a "daddy issue" -- i don't mean that in the snarky sarcastic way, however around your age some women just want to feel taken care of and guys that age seem to have all the answers and are "chill" in a way that reminds a gal of her dad or "protector"/"caretaker" in her life. Guys in their 40s are high strung about certain things (finances, life change, etc.) so they don't have that "chill" factor EVEN IF they are great guys with good hearts. (Guys in their 40s are a little like women in their 50s... there's a twinge of anxiety that impacts certain interactions/perceptions.)

Typical trolls answering a question for 40 year olds when she's 21 because she's desperate for a few xper for answering questions first. How sad.

LOL, you're not alone. I'm about to turn 60 and the women I typically date are say 33 - 50. A few 25-30. And they almost all invariably pursue me. I'm not the most outgoing personality. I'm more of an introvert.

In my experience, women being interested in guys 10, 20, even 25 years older is not really that uncommon.

Bering attracted to people that are respectful is common. Enjoy yourself with older men if you are okay with the age gap.

Yes extremely common , and rightly so..
It makes sense.

As a man in his 60s I can confirm that we are more respectful, smarter and probably better in bed than the young soy boys you're accustomed to.

Not sure, being 21. I could see that being more common at 40. Nothing wrong with it.

As long as you are comfortable with it, go for it.
