Age of attraction?

Question

When I was young, older men found me attractive, now that I’m a leer it’s younger men that seem attracted. Is this what other women noticed and, if yes, why might that be the case?

I dunno, that's kind of a weird thing. I guess it might be kinda normal though for age of attraction to change as you get older? Like when you were younger maybe older guys noticed you more since you were still really young and they were older.

But now that you're a bit older yourself, guys your age and maybe even a little younger would be more interested since you're closer to their age now too. I think a lot of times guys, even like really young guys, are just more attracted to older girls in general compared to like actual little kids. So it would make sense that you'd get more attention from younger guys now instead of only older ones.

As long as no one creepy is like way too old for you anymore I wouldn't think it's that weird. Guys are just attracted to different things at different ages I guess. Like I know I'm still into girls my age but also think some older ones are cool too. So maybe it just works the same way but opposite for you now. But if you ever feel creeped out by someone, trust your gut on that for sure.

Women's status in the dating market is high when they're young, and it goes down with age as their biological clock ticks and their youth and beauty fade. Men's status in the dating market is low when they're young, and gets higher with age as their wealth and skills grow and they have more and more to provide. Guys usually don't go after girls they don't think they have a shot with, so younger broke men don't go for pretty younger women as often as older men with more to offer.

Well I haven't aged enough to know if that would be the case for me or not, but maybe you just learned to appreciate different qualities that younger guys have over time. Or maybe you're just the kind of person that likes your partner to be different from you, you liked older guys for being in a different stage of life and now that you're at the same stage you want something new!
