I think the point was that some guys are delusional and they do think that all these younger women are into them because they are so "young for their age" or whatever.

This just is not always the case. People choose partners for a variety of reasons and not all these older guys are particularly appealing apart from their wallets and their life experiences that might lead them to treat a woman to things that she would like to experience that cost money.

Younger guys with money may feel like a woman owes them far more if they are going to spend that cash on her.

We see that here in this forum all the time.

Guy is young, makes six figures, wants a supermodel babe for a girlfriend, but is upset because she did not offer to split the tab.

You think that happens with a 50 year old guy and a 25 year old woman?

Hell no. LOL.

Maybe those younger guys can learn something about game from their elders, eh?

ruth you are better than that, that is a stretch, almost seems like a rationalization for accepting the existence of an arrangement you don't agree with unless the individuals who engage in it are defective somehow.

Or they at least want the woman to be discreet and there is a don't ask, don't tell deal there.

It's one thing to want to sleep with a woman who is "super hot" and half your age or to briefly date her but I don't think all of these guys are making them their wives. They would probably prefer an intellectual equal. Anyways beauty fades.

Ugh another bashing older women thread. First off, not all older men rich or not want younger. Second, just because they want younger doesn't mean they can get younger. Third these are extreme cases and it's more of a business arrangement than love. He's a sugar daddy and she's a gold digger. Fourth, who cares? Most people aren't rich. Fifth, not all women care about money, I'd rather have a guy I find attractive.

Money over a shallow world? The relationship will be pointless, lost and hormonal.

i've never heard a man say that he was primarily interested in finding a wife who was his intellectual equal. i use to include that as part of a list of qualities in an ideal mate, then i just figured out that finding someone who was good looking, had good sex, and treated me nice/respectful was good enough. that is still my rule for LTRs....

What?? I'm assuming that a lot of these guys are looking for love, not just a warm body. I happen to know a rich guy who tends to prefer women 20 years younger, and he just married one (his first marriage). They're both in love, and that was certainly what he was looking for. And they are intellectual and creative equals (both in the arts). His previous gf was also his intellectual equal (lawyer and political activist). Some men go for those types. They like to have someone they can have substantive conversations with, and who share their values, including humanitarian, intellectual, creative, whatever, values.

Sorry, but I don't understand your comment at all. Most people do have the expectation that they and their partner will be exclusive.
