The complaint is my mature personality sometimes has trouble connecting with the younger ones.
To the point of sometimes feeling like a mentor and not a date.
Why date them, then? If you want to meet women your age, participate in activities where they can get to know you, rather than simply judging you on appearances.

If/when I enter another LTR its unlikely to be with someone that much younger than me.
Dating much younger women is rarely about being emotionally or intellectually compatible. We know what its about, and fully endorse this approach.

Indulge her Be gentle and supportive, of her, her thoughts, and her dreams; continually try to touch and reach her heart...she will appreciate your loving devotion to her, and it will cause her to grow more emotionally-attached (meant, as in a good and positive way of course) to you...

Reason: Adds
I'm talking anywhere from about 5-15 years younger than me (I'm 34).
Women my age or older rarely show an interest. It has happened but far less often than the 5-15 younger.
In fact all the girls numbers on my phone (excluding family or long time friends) right now are younger, except one. Personality wise I'm quite mature and sensible for my age, even if that doesn't always come across on this forum.
I do look younger than 34.
Is it a major factor many of those my age or older are already taken, hence the lack of interest.
Thoughts on why this is so?
I couldn't date a woman under 25. I know they say that women supposedly mature faster than men, but I don't buy it. Sure, there are immature men out there. But successful men are usually focused on accelerating in their careers and becoming established enough to start a family. That said, they are usually taking on far more responsibilities in life between the ages of 23-30 than most women. Not to say that women aren't career-focused either, but I've been a lot of women in their early to mid-20s who didn't have a clue about getting established. They were still in mindset of partying and just having fun.

This sounds creepy...creepier than the original post.

Interesting, how so? (Perhaps the specific wording of my earlier post was poor, on my part?)
The main message I was trying impart was to be kind, patient, and gentle with a potential love interest as a guy, if you are going to pursue a legally-aged younger woman, and to be supportive and caring, of her and her emotional needs...I certainly wasn't trying to sound creepy though? Nothing sinister was intended; I promise...and if it came across that way, then I sincerely apologize for that.
