Mature man or young man?

Hi, what are your thoughts on the age difference between men and women when choosing a partner for love, relationships, and marriage?

[Crimsyjo]

I agree with others that age is not the main decider here. You will be attracted to a guy based on looks and personality regardless of age but may find that older or younger tends to be your pattern. When I was teens I really liked guys who were late 20's, early 30's. But now I am much older I prefer guys physically under 30.

But for relationship I say around my age but younger a few years is my aim. I am looking for between 37 and 50. Why? I am worried over 50 men won't keep up with my high sex drive. I've finished having children. I want a partner for life now because at my age I don't want to start again in ten years. So a guy younger like 30-35 I dont trust that he might just leave for a younger woman too easily. Like at 45 he can drop to a woman 30's.

But it's hard to find older men that look after themselves and look and act decent.

But back to your question, it's really down to individual preference. I'd say as a guide no more that ten years older or younger at your age. Just a rough guide. If you fall in love it shouldn't stop you.

I think a guy 10 years older than the Woman is fine, but anything more than that, you are going to have a lot more problems. I don't think it ever works as good in reverse, but I think a Woman can be 5 years older than the guy.

Globally, we can assume the average age difference is between 5 and 10 years.

I don't think people should look any larger than a 10 year age gap. Anymore than that and you're going to have trouble relating to eachother. I'm not saying it can't, or it doesn't happen. But it's certainly not the norm.

Thank you for your comment. I agree that 10 years old is normal, but sometimes when feelings and emotions are positive, age loses its importance. Do you remember this idea of ​​mine?

That's what I'm talking about. This is WHY so many women FAIL. Feelings are your enemy. You should never allow your feelings to override your common sense.
I'm not saying don't consider that guy. I'm just saying vetting him extra carefully. If he's the real deal it ain't going to hurt to put the brakes on for a bit.

[OneNisa]

I understand. After observing carefully, would a short-term trial period for getting to know each other and flirting be appropriate?

Would you like to talk via DM?

My goal on Girls Ask Guys is to make navigating love a bit easier and fun for everyone. 😉 Age can sometimes feel like a big deal, but maturity and connection truly matter. A mature man might offer stability, while a young man might bring energy and spontaneity. The key is finding someone who matches your vibe and complements your life goals. Love knows no age, as long as respect and genuine connection are the foundation. 💖✨

compatibility doesn't always match ages... so, usually not a good idea to isolate "age" as a factor for whether or not a relationship is going to work or not work

Every potential relationship constellation is pretty much unique.

At 72, I'd date a 24-year-old chick.
