He could, but definitely not necessarily. Sometimes people just hit it off with someone who is quite different.

Maybe he is more mature for his age.

Or more open and curious, and enjoys what he learns from people older than him.

But some other reasons it might happen are: Because older women are more confident than young, generally. So they can communicate more easily, better, and the guy doesn't have to do so much of the work, carrying the relationship. A lot of younger girls and women believe that they should be the ones who are chased because if they initiate with guys then the guys will see them as "desperate"; which is hypocritical, someone's got to do it, so is the guy desperate then? They want to be seen as the prize. They think the guy needs to prove his interest, and that he's not a "dog" etc etc. Older women know more, know better, so they don't play these games.

Not at all. I can tell you this: I’ve seen and know a few women who, at age 40+ and even a few north of 50 (Salma Hayek, Carmen Electra, Sofia Vergara, Kate Beckensale, , Jenny McArthy) who are so much more attractive than women half their age it’s just insane. My theory? Women below a certain age assume their youth = beauty. Women above a certain age actually take care of themselves since they feel (right or wrong) that youth was their greatest asset and now seeing it fade are fighting the fight however they can. Plus, I’ve met few women under 30 who have much class. Class is sexy.

I don't know man... for a while now I find myself more excited when a girl in her late 20s or in her 30s hits on me other than college girls.. I think I'm into older girls because they have more character.. younger girls are just hot and " adventurous " but that's all lol.. I think maybe that's a sign I'm becoming more mature in some way.. but if you made me over analyze it.. I do come from a very dysfunctional family and I was a neglected child... and that doesn't make it look good... not good at all xD

No not at all. Some people see age as just a number. If there's a connection between two people, who cares about age

But we all have issues. I would say 99% of romance is behavioral or personality issues. Read Freud.
