I knew a fellow. Mid-50's, 15 years divorced, light drinker, no drugs, good job, good looking, owned his own home, and had no baggage. He prefered smallish, thin, toned, 40ish blonde women. Over the year I met two of his lady friends. They were both head cases. His preference to body style was fine, but man oh man his choices of what was between their ears sucked.
Obviously he didn't care what was between the ears - LOL!
I'm married, so doesn't affect me, but why is it men always want to date women younger than they are?
I've noticed this too and I'll admit that I'm guilty of it myself (though my current gf is only about a year younger than me and THAT hardly counts).
My theory is it has to do with men wanting to be in charge and it's easier to be in control when we're more experienced, more stable (as in established not mentally) etc.
People mention age difference At times it can matter, at times not.
She is 16, he is 31. Legal but bad for her.
She is 30, he is 45. Good for both of them.
She is 50, he is 65. She is still working. He is retired and aging fast. He has a Nurse with a Purse...LOL
She is 65, he is 80. She is probably having to feed him by now.....LOL
So now ask yourself why men go for younger woman.........LOL
It is obvious why we men want younger women. Many women criticize men for wanting younger women when the real question should be what does a younger women see in an older man?
We men are as young as the woman we are feeling......LOL
Then again, there’s always the possibility that your expectations may need adjusting. I read an article recently about this psychologist whose specialty is relationships and what he figured out was that the things we value most in potential mates (physical attractiveness, income level, education) aren't as important to the success of long term relationships as we think they are. His key statistic is “agreeableness” because it allows people to work through their differences. It’s a good short read and has some cool numbers about the odds of finding your “ideal” partner.
Anyway - I'm not suggesting that you forego all your standards and marry someone whose idea of a job is going door-to-door attempting to sell things that literally no one needs, and has zero chance of any actual long-term stability. But, there' nothing wrong with a little compromise.

Agreed. No one needs a loser like that. The only thing worse would be marrying someone who has nothing better to do than troll internet forums or something.
