Two words for you...

Hugh Hefner

So when you were in your 20's you didn't date women in your 20's? I was in my 20's I dated men a lot older than I was, and I wasted a lot of good time doing it too.

If I had any advice for a young female in her 20's I would tell her not to date men in their 30's or older because you're going to waste your best reproductive years on men who want to use you as arm candy and only want to "date" you.

Find someone closer to your age.

I've missed out on their energetic, carefree personalities and their vibrancy. It's hard to find a woman of my age who has as much energy as a woman in her early 20s. I don't find women in their late 20s/early 30s to be as interesting and fun and exciting. In my opinion the number of women my age who act "immature", and are not boring, is few and far between. Sometimes I wish for a type of woman my age who has the personality and attitude of Mariah Carey or Demi Moore or Madonna.

I have a few mid 20 yo Female friends that I see going in and out of relationships like theres no tomorrow. My advice to them, if they want someone who is going to last longer than 6 months find an older guy. Face it, people and especially men assign value to youth. Even if it's just 5 years.

The bottom line is that women date whomever they find attractive. If she finds you attractive and sexually appealing, your age becomes irrelevant.

I like anything that is no more than 30 or less than my age, but nothing happens because I look younger and am younger than they are.

Gotcha, I was just curious. Well you are certainly entitled to that, I do wish you all the best in finding that special lady Just be you, don't be afraid to ask a lady out and eventually you will meet the lady you are looking for. If you are of a genuine character, have sincere confidence, and have stability, you should not have a problem.

Yes, as soon as your 30th birthday hits she'll dump you like expired dairy.

The problem is -- the younger women feel the same way you do. They view someone in his 20's as being energetic, carefree, vibrant and just like you, most women in their 20's view over 30 year olds as over-the-hill. Most women in their early 20's think "eewww" when it comes to older men -- but if you have money, you can usually find some who will be interested.

And the problem with women like Mariah Carey, or Demi Moore, or Madonna os they also want the young vibrant energetic men much younger than they are, they also would view an over 30 year old man as over the hill, washed out, boring.

The last two guys who asked me out were 17 and 24 years younger than me.

Please, oh please, spare me from from their energetic vibrancy!

I'm in my early 20s. I'm open in terms of the age factor.
